The velocity of a satellite describing a circular orbit is <u>constant</u> and defined by the following expression:
(1)
Where:
is the gravity constant
the mass of the massive body around which the satellite is orbiting
the radius of the orbit (measured from the center of the planet to the satellite).
Note this orbital speed, as well as orbital period, does not depend on the mass of the satellite. I<u>t depends on the mass of the massive body.</u>
In addition, this orbital speed is constant because at all times <u>both the kinetic energy and the potential remain constant</u> in a circular (closed) orbit.
It will cause heat from friction
Answer:
11 m/s
Explanation:
Draw a free body diagram. There are two forces acting on the car:
Weigh force mg pulling down
Normal force N pushing perpendicular to the incline
Sum the forces in the +y direction:
∑F = ma
N cos θ − mg = 0
N = mg / cos θ
Sum the forces in the radial (+x) direction:
∑F = ma
N sin θ = m v² / r
Substitute and solve for v:
(mg / cos θ) sin θ = m v² / r
g tan θ = v² / r
v = √(gr tan θ)
Plug in values:
v = √(9.8 m/s² × 48 m × tan 15°)
v = 11.2 m/s
Rounded to 2 significant figures, the maximum speed is 11 m/s.
Answer: The green house effect is best described by option 4 (Energy given off by earth is reflected off of earth's atmosphere back down to the surface).
Explanation:
The green house effect can be described as the energy given off by earth is reflected off of earth's atmosphere back down to the surface.
When energy from the sun passes through the atmosphere, some are absorbed which keeps the earth surface warm. While the rest is reflected back largely by cloud.
The energy which is emitted from the earth surface is called the infrared radiation. Some of the infrared radiation passess through the atmosphere but most is absorbed and re- emitted in all directions by the greenhouse gas molecules and clouds. This effect warms the earth surface and the lower atmosphere. Therefore this statement (Energy given off by earth is reflected off of earth's atmosphere back down to the surface) is correct about greenhouse effect.
For the greenhouse effect to occur, greenhouse gas molecules are mostly needed. Examples of these gases include:
--> Carbon dioxide (CO2),
--> Water vapor (H2O), and
--> Methane (CH4)
Over the years, the excessive human activities has lead to increase in the greenhouse gas molecules which has negatively affected the greenhouse effects.
Answer:
Right
Explanation:
electromagnetic waves can travel through space (a vacuum) because it doesn't need a medium and its particles to propagate whereas a mechanical wave needs a medium to propagate. For example sound is a mechanical wave, sound vibrates off a mediums particles to propagate and for sound to be heard and travel
