Determine W (or fuel energy) required to launch a satellite of mass m at rest from a launching pad placed at the surface earth,
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

5. 9GmM/(10R)

Explanation:

m is the mass of the satellite

M is the mass of the earth

W is the energy required to launch the satellite

Energy at earth surface = Potential energy (PE) + W

W = Energy at earth surface - Potential energy (PE)

But PE = -\frac{GMm}{R}

Therefore: W = Energy at earth surface - \frac{GMm}{R}

Energy at earth surface (E) at an altitude of 5R = -\frac{GMm}{5r} +\frac{1}{2}mV^2

But V=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{5R} }

Therefore: E=-\frac{GMm}{5R}+\frac{1}{2}m(\sqrt{\frac{GM}{5R} } )^2=  -\frac{GMm}{5R}+\frac{GMm}{10R}  = -\frac{GMm}{10R}

W = E - PE

W=-\frac{GMm}{10R}-(-\frac{GMm}{R})=-\frac{GMm}{10R}+\frac{GMm}{R}=\frac{9GMm}{10R} \\W=\frac{9GMm}{10R}

Give an example of a force applied to an object that does not change the object's velocity. Why does the object's velocity not c
Xelga [282]

Answer:

A chair at rest on the floor has two forces acting on it its own weight that pulls it downward and the floor pushing upward on the chair, both of these forces are acting on it but the net force is 0, so the chair remains at rest and its velocity stays at 0.

PLEASE HELP!!! 25 pts!!
mina [271]

Answer:

The slope of the graph is what you need. That tells you the speed not the velocity. In order to find the velocity you would also need to know the direction of the motion.

5. A person fishing from a pier observes that four wave crests pass by in 7.0 s and estimates that the distance between two succ
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

v= 1.71 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

Distance between two successive crests = 4.0 m

 λ = 4 m

T= 7 sec

T is the time between 3 waves.

3 waves = 7 sec

1 wave = 7 /3 sec

So t= 7/3 s

We know that frequency f

f= 1/t= 3/7 Hz

Lets take speed of the wave is v

v= f λ

f=frequency

λ=wavelength

v= 3/7 x 4 = 12 /7

v= 1.71 m/s
