Answer:

The answer is B.

Explanation:

You're given a position vs. time graph. The the slope of the line is the change in position over time - in other words, the speed.

A positive slope indicates a positive change in position over time and therefore a positive speed. The more positive the slope, the greater the change and the greater the positive speed.

A negative slope indicates a negative change in position over time and therefore a negative speed. The more negative the slop, the greater the change and the greater the negative speed.

A horizontal slope (i.e. slope of 0) indicates no change in position over time. In other words, the speed is 0 and the object is stationary.

With this in mind, you can see the object is initially moving with a positive speed for 3 s (from t=0 to t=3), then is at rest for 3 s (from t=3 to t=6), then is moving at a (higher) positive speed for 4 s (from t=6 to t=10). You can see then that the answer is B.

A is wrong because after being at rest the object moves at a constant speed for only 4 s.

C is wrong because by the time the object gets to 5cm, it has moved at 3 different speeds (first positive slope, horizontal slope, second positive slope).

D is wrong because the object moves from 0 to 3cm in 3 s - a speed of 3cm/3s = 1cm/s.

A satellite of mass M = 270kg is in circular orbit around the Earth at an altitude equal to the earth's mean radius (6370 km). A

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to Orbital Speed as a function of the universal gravitational constant, the mass of the planet and the orbital distance of the satellite. From finding the velocity it will be possible to calculate the period of the body and finally the gravitational force acting on the satellite.

PART A)

V_{orbital} = \sqrt{\frac{GM_E}{R}}

Here,

M = Mass of Earth

R = Distance from center to the satellite

Replacing with our values we have,

V_{orbital} = \sqrt{\frac{(6.67*10^{-11})(5.972*10^{24})}{(6370*10^3)+(6370*10^3)}}

V_{orbital} = 5591.62m/s

V_{orbital} = 5.591*10^3m/s

PART B) The period of satellite is given as,

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{r^3}{Gm_E}}

T = \frac{2\pi r}{V_{orbital}}

T = \frac{2\pi (2*6370*10^3)}{5.591*10^3}

T = 238.61min

PART C) The gravitational force on the satellite is given by,

F = ma

F = \frac{1}{4} mg

F = \frac{270*9.8}{4}

F = 661.5N
