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

Physics
1 answer:
Bond [772]4 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

A 30 N rock falls from a 40 m cliff. At what point during its fall are its
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

<em>Both energies are equal when the rock has fallen 20 m or equivalently when it is at a height of 20 m.</em>

Explanation:

<u>Potential and Kinetic Energy</u>

The gravitational potential energy is the energy an object has due to its height above the ground. The formula is

U=mgh

Where:

m = mass of the object

g = acceleration of gravity (9.8~m/s^2)

h = height

Note we can also use the object's weight W=mg into the formula:

U=Wh

The kinetic energy is the energy an object has due to its speed:

\displaystyle K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

Where v is the object's speed.

Initially, the object has no kinetic energy because it's assumed at rest.

The W=30 N rock falls from a height of h=40 m, thus:

U=30*40=1,200 J

Since the sum of the kinetic and potential energies is constant:

U' + K' = 1,200 J

Here, U' and K' are the energies at any point of the motion. Since both must be the same:

U' = K' = 600 J

U'=Wh'=600

Solving for h':

\displaystyle h'=\frac{600}{W}=\frac{600}{30}=20~m

Both energies are equal when the rock has fallen 20 m or equivalently when it is at a height of 20 m.

Una pelota se desliza hacia arriba por una pendiente se halla inicialmente a 6m de la parte más baja de dicha pendiente y tiene
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

a) vprom = - 0.6 [m/s] b) ver explicacion c) vf = 10.8 [m/s]

Explanation:

Para poder solucionar este problema debemos completar el enunciado del problema así como la pregunta, realizando una búsqueda en Internet encontramos el enunciado completo, así como la pregunta.

"Una pelota que se desliza hacia arriba por una pendiente se halla inicialmente a 6 m de la parte más baja de dicha pendiente y tiene una velocidad de 4 m/s. Cinco segundos después se encuentra a 3 m de la parte más baja. Si suponemos una aceleración constante, "

¿cual fue la velocidad media?

¿Cuál es el significado de una velocidad media negativa?

¿Cuáles son la aceleración media y la velocidad final?

Para facilitar esta solución debemos realizar un esquema del movimiento de la pelota en el plano inclinado. En la imagen adjunta se puede ver un esquema del movimiento de la pelota sobre el plano inclinado en los diferentes tiempos mencionados.

<u>¿cual fue la velocidad media?</u>

<u />

La velocidad media se debe calcular utilizando la expresión de velocidad = espacio / tiempo.

v_{prom}=x/t\\v_{prom}=(3-6)/5\\v_{prom}=-0.6 [m/s]

<u>¿Cuál es el significado de una velocidad media negativa? </u>

La velocidad media negativa significa que se dirige hacia abajo en sentido contrario

<u>¿Cuáles son la aceleración media y la velocidad final?</u>

<u />

x=v_{o}*t+0.5*a*t^{2} \\-3=(4)*(5)+0.5*a*(5)^2\\a=1.36[m/s^2]\\\\Velocity\\v_{f}=v_{o}+a*t = 4+(1.36*5)\\v_{f}=10.8[m/s]

A defibrillator containing a 18.4 μF capacitor is used to shock the heart of a patient by holding it to the patient's chest. Jus
gregori [183]

Answer:

The energy E is 1603.008 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Capacitor = 18.4 μF

Voltage = 13.2 kV

We need to calculate the energy

Using formula of energy

E=W=\int{Q}\ dV.....(I)

We know that,

Q=CV

Put the value of Q in equation (I)

E=\int{CV}dV

On integration

E=\dfrac{CV^2}{2}

Put the value into the formula

E=\dfrac{18.4\times10^{-6}\times(13.2\times10^{3})^2}{2}

E=1603.008\ J

Hence, The energy E is 1603.008 J.

a 1385 kg cannon containing a 58.5 kg cannon ball is on wheels. the cannon fires the cannon ball giving it a velocity of 49.8 m/
lys-0071 [83]
Conservation of momentum requires that the sum of momenta after is equal to that before.  Since initially nothing is moving, the sum after the shot will also add to zero. 
m₁v₁ = -m₂v₂

Solve for the cannon's velocity v₁

v₁ = -m₂v₂/m₁ = -2.10m/s

The negative sign means it's moving 2.10m/s south.

The kinetic energy, k, of an object varies jointly with the mass of the object and the square of the velocity of the object. a 5
o-na [289]

Answer:

KE = 1/2 M V^2 = 1/2 * 25 * 10^2 = 1250 J

Check

M2 = 1/2 M1

V2 = V1 / 2

E2 = 1/2 * 1/4 E1 = E1 / 8 = 10000 / 8 = 1250 J
