<span>This is actually all because of centripetal acceleration and inertia. You see that when the bucket spins, it actually tries to go straight, however the rope attached restricts this and makes it go in a circle. This makes the water to be pinned against the bottom of the bucket. </span>

A 100-kg spacecraft is in a circular orbit about Earth at a height h = 2RE .
maria [59]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the conservation of the Gravitational Force and the centripetal force by equilibrium,

F_g = F_c

\frac{GmM}{r^2} = \frac{mv^2}{r}

Where,

m = Mass of spacecraft

M = Mass of Earth

r = Radius (Orbit)

G = Gravitational Universal Music

v = Velocity

Re-arrange to find the velocity

\frac{GM}{r^2} = \frac{v^2}{r}

\frac{GM}{r} = v^2

v = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}

PART A ) The radius of the spacecraft's orbit is 2 times the radius of the earth, that is, considering the center of the earth, the spacecraft is 3 times at that distance. Replacing then,

v = \sqrt{\frac{(6.67*10^{-11})(5.97*10^{24})}{3*(6.371*10^6)}}

v = 4564.42m/s

From the speed it is possible to use find the formula, so

T = \frac{2\pi r}{v}

T = \frac{2\pi (6.371*10^6)}{4564.42}

T = 8770.05s\approx 146min\approx 2.4hour

Therefore the orbital period of the spacecraft is 2 hours and 24 minutes.

PART B) To find the kinetic energy we simply apply the definition of kinetic energy on the ship, which is

KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

KE = \frac{1}{2} (100)(4564.42)^2

KE = 1.0416*10^9J

Therefore the kinetic energy of the Spacecraft is 1.04 Gigajules.

Determine which heat transfers below are due to the process of conduction. I) You walk barefoot on the hot street and it burns y
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

I) You walk barefoot on the hot street and it burns your toes.

II) When you get into a car with hot black leather in the middle of the summer and your skin starts to get burned.

Explanation:

In conduction mode of heat transfer we know that the energy is transferred from one system to other system due to direct contact of two bodies

Here due to this direct contact the energy is transferred via a given solid or liquid medium

In this type of heat transfer medium particles will remain in its own position only the energy is transferred.

So here we can say the correct answer will be

I) You walk barefoot on the hot street and it burns your toes.

II) When you get into a car with hot black leather in the middle of the summer and your skin starts to get burned.
