Answer:
x = 45 cm
Explanation:
Given that,
The length of a rod, L = 50 cm
Mass, m₁ = 0.2 kg
It is at 40cm from the left end of the rod.
We need to find the distance from the left end of the rod should a 0.6kg mass be hung to balance the rod.
The centre of mass of the rod is at 25 cm.
Taking moments of both masses such that,
The distance from the left end is 40+5 = 45 cm.
Hence, at a distance of 45 cm from the left end it will balance the rod.
Answer:
v = 7.69 x 10³ m/s = 7690 m/s
T = 5500 s = 91.67 min = 1.53 h
Explanation:
In order for the satellite to orbit the earth, the force of gravitation on satellite must be equal to the centripetal force acting on it:
where,
G = Universal Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²
Me = Mass of Earth = 5.97 x 10²⁴ kg
r = distance between the center of Earth and Satellite = Radius of Earth + Altitude = 6.371 x 10⁶ m + 0.361 x 10⁶ m = 6.732 x 10⁶ m
v = orbital speed = ?
Therefore,
<u>v = 7.69 x 10³ m/s</u>
For time period satellite completes one revolution around the earth. It means that the distance covered by satellite is equal to circumference of circle at the given altitude.
So, its orbital speed can be given as:
where,
T = Time Period of Satellite = ?
Therefore,
<u>T = 5500 s = 91.67 min = 1.53 h</u>
