Which satellite has the greatest gravitational force with Earth?

Physics
2 answers:
zhannawk [14.2K]3 years ago

Answer: Option 4, the satellite D.

Explanation: The gravitational force between two objects is given by the formula:

F = G\frac{m1*m2}{r^2}

where m1 and m2 are the masses of the objects, G is a constant, and r is the distance between both objects.

From this equation, you can see that the gravitational force between two objects increments when the masses of the objects increases, and when the distance between the object decreases.

You can see that all the options are at the same distance from the earth, 320km, then the only factor that changes is the mass of the satellite.

And, based on the previous, the satellite with more mass is the satellite that has the greatest gravitational force with the earth, and this would be the satellite D, with amas of 500kg.

Answer:

Satellite D has a mass (kg) of 500 and the distance from Earth (km) is 320.

Explanation:

The universal law of gravitation states that the force between two objects in the universe is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

We have to choose the satellite having greatest gravitational force with earth. In all options the distance from the earth is same i.e. 320 km. So, we have to select the satellite having maximum mass because the mass of the earth is constant.

Hence, the correct option is (D) " Satellite D has a mass (kg) of 500 and the distance from Earth (km) is 320 ".

True or false if an object has energy it must be moving
Drupady [299]

Answer:

Explanation:

If an object is moving, it is said to have kinetic energy (KE). Potential energy (PE) is energy that is "stored" because of the position and/or arrangement of the object. The classic example of potential energy is to pick up a brick. When it's on the ground, the brick had a certain amount of energy.

How much work in joules is required to lift a 23 kg box up from the ground to your waist that is 1.0 meters high, carry it 6 met
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

2682

Explanation:

Work done is given by :

Work = Force x distance

         =  mg x d

So, work done in lifting the box of 23 kg up to my waist of 1 m high is :

W = mg x d

   = 23 x 9.18 x 1

   = 211.14

Now work done carrying the box horizontally 6 meters across the room is

W = mg x d

   = 23 x 9.18 x 6

   = 1266.84

Work done in placing the box on the shelf that is 5.7 m above the ground is

W = mg x d

   = 23 x 9.18 x 5.7

   = 1203.49

So the total work done is = 211.14 + 1266.84 + 1203.49

                                          = 2681.47

                                          = 2682 (rounding off)

Helga [31]

Answer:

3.4\cdot 10^{-19} J

Explanation:

In order to convert the work function of cesium from electronvolts to Joules, we must use the following conversion factor:

1 eV = 1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} J

In our problem, the work function of cesium is

E=2.1 eV

so, we can convert it into Joules by using the following proportion:

1 eV : 1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J = 2.1 eV : x\\x=\frac{(1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J)(2.1 eV)}{1 eV}=3.4\cdot 10^{-19} J
