Two satellites have circular orbits with the same radius. One satellite is twice mass of the other. Which has a higher speed?

1 answer:

Bond [772]3 years ago

7 0

Answer:

The satellite which has greater mass will have greater orbital speed

As the satellite 1 has greater mass so it has higher speed

Explanation:

We have given satellites have same radius

Let R is the radius of both satellites

Let $M_1\ and\ M_2$ are the mass of both satellite

Orbital speed is given by $orbital\ speed=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{R}}$

In question it is given $M_1=2M_2$

From the relation we can see that orbital speed is directly proportional to the mass

So the satellite which has greater mass will have greater orbital speed

As the satellite 1 has greater mass so it has higher speed

Ejercicio 1: Un cuerpo gira en un círculo de 8cm de diámetro con una rapidez constante

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

Exercise 1;

The centripetal acceleration is approximately 94.52 m/s²

Explanation:

1) The given parameters are;

The diameter of the circle = 8 cm = 0.08 m

The radius of the circle = Diameter/2 = 0.08/2 = 0.04 m

The speed of motion = 7 km/h = 1.944444 m/s

The centripetal acceleration = v²/r = 1.944444²/0.04 ≈ 94.52 m/s²

The centripetal acceleration ≈ 94.52 m/s²

A heater has a resistance of 10.0 Ω. It operates on a 12.0 V. What is the current through the resistor?

irakobra [83]

Answer:

1.2 amps :)

Explanation:

A heater has a resistance of 10.0 Ω. It operates on a 12.0 V. What is the current through the resistor?

Known:

R = 10.0 Ω

V = 12.0 V

Unknown:

I = ???

I = V/R

= 12.0 V / 10.0 Ω

= 1.2 amps

Nitrogen at 100 kPa and 25oC in a rigid vessel is heated until its pressure is 300 kPa. Calculate (a) the work done and (b) the

nignag [31]

Answer:

A. The work done during the process is W = 0

B. The value of heat transfer during the process Q = 442.83 $\frac{KJ}{kg}$

Explanation:

Given Data

Initial pressure $P_{1}$ = 100 k pa

Initial temperature $T_{1}$ = 25 degree Celsius = 298 Kelvin

Final pressure $P_{2}$ = 300 k pa

Vessel is rigid so change in volume of the gas is zero. so that initial volume is equal to final volume.

⇒ $V_{1}$ = $V_{2}$ ------------- (1)

Since volume of the gas is constant so pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas.

⇒ P ∝ T

⇒ $\frac{P_{2} }{P_{1}}$ = $\frac{T_{2} }{T_{1}}$

⇒ Put all the values in the above formula we get the final temperature

⇒ $T_{2}$ = $\frac{300}{100}$ × 298

⇒ $T_{2}$ = 894 Kelvin

(A). Work done during the process is given by W = P × ( $V_{2} -V _{1}$ )

From equation (1), $V_{1}$ = $V_{2}$ so work done W = P × 0 = 0

⇒ W = 0

Therefore the work done during the process is zero.

Heat transfer during the process is given by the formula Q = m $C_{v}$ ( $T_{2}$ - $T_{1}$ )

Where m = mass of the gas = 1 kg

$C_{v}$ = specific heat at constant volume of nitrogen = 0.743 $\frac{KJ}{kg k}$

Thus the heat transfer Q = 1 × 0.743 × ( 894- 298 )

⇒ Q = 442.83 $\frac{KJ}{kg}$

Therefore the value of heat transfer during the process Q = 442.83 $\frac{KJ}{kg}$

A counterflow double-pipe heat exchanger is used to heat water from 20°C to 80°C at a rate of 1.2 kg/s. The heating is to be com

bixtya [17]

Answer:L=109.16 m

Explanation:

Given

initial temperature $=20^{\circ}C$

Final Temperature $=80^{\circ}C$

mass flow rate of cold fluid $\dot{m_c}=1.2 kg/s$

Initial Geothermal water temperature $T_h_i=160^{\circ}C$

Let final Temperature be T

mass flow rate of geothermal water $\dot{m_h}=2 kg/s$

diameter of inner wall $d_i=1.5 cm$

$U_{overall}=640 W/m^2K$

specific heat of water $c=4.18 kJ/kg-K$

balancing energy

Heat lost by hot fluid=heat gained by cold Fluid

$\dot{m_c}c(T_h_i-T_h_e)= \dot{m_h}c(80-20)$

$2\times (160-T)=1.2\times (80-20)$

$160-T=36$

$T=124^{\circ}C$

As heat exchanger is counter flow therefore

$\Delta T_1=160-80=80^{\circ}C$

$\Delta T_2=124-20=104^{\circ}C$

$LMTD=\frac{\Delta T_1-\Delta T_2}{\ln (\frac{\Delta T_1}{\Delta T_2})}$

$LMTD=\frac{80-104}{\ln \frac{80}{104}}$

$LMTD=91.49^{\circ}C$

heat lost or gain by Fluid is equal to heat transfer in the heat exchanger

$\dot{m_c}c(80-20)=U\cdot A\cdot$ (LMTD)

$A=\frac{1.2\times 4.184\times 1000\times 60}{640\times 91.49}=5.144 m^2$

$A=\pi DL=5.144$

$L=\frac{5.144}{\pi \times 0.015}$

$L=109.16 m$
