PE = mgh
137200 = mg x 200
686 = mg
686/9.81 = m
m = 69.9286.... (idk how many decimals / sig. figs. you need)

Answer:

PE = mgh

137200 = mg x 200

686 = mg

686/9.81 = m

m = 69.9286

A radar antenna is tracking a satellite orbiting the earth. At a certain time, the radar screen shows the satellite to be 118 km

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

x component 60.85 m

y component 101.031 m

Explanation:

We have given distance r = 118 km

Angle which makes from ground = 58.9°

(a) X component of distance is given by $r_x=rcos\Theta =118\times cos58.9=118\times 0.5165=118=60.85m$

(b) Y component of distance is given by $r_Y=rcos\Theta =118\times sin58.9=118\times 0.8562=101.0316m$

These are the x and y component of position vector
