A satellite orbits a planet of unknown mass in a circular orbit of radius 2.3 x 104 km. The gravitational force on the satellite

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

The kinetic energy is $KE = 7.59 *10^{10} \ J$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The radius of the orbit is $r = 2.3 *10^{4} \ km = 2.3 *10^{7} \ m$

The gravitational force is $F_g = 6600 \ N$

The kinetic energy of the satellite is mathematically represented as

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

where v is the speed of the satellite which is mathematically represented as

$v = \sqrt{\frac{G M}{r^2} }$

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

substituting this into the equation

$KE = \frac{ 1}{2} *\frac{GMm}{r}$

Now the gravitational force of the planet is mathematically represented as

$F_g = \frac{GMm}{r^2}$

Where M is the mass of the planet and m is the mass of the satellite

Now looking at the formula for KE we see that we can represent it as

$KE = \frac{ 1}{2} *[\frac{GMm}{r^2}] * r$

=> $KE = \frac{ 1}{2} *F_g * r$

substituting values

$KE = \frac{ 1}{2} *6600 * 2.3*10^{7}$

$KE = 7.59 *10^{10} \ J$

A man attempts to pick up his suitcase of weight ws by pulling straight up on the handle. However, he is unable to lift the suit

kvasek [131]

Answer:

Explanation:

Normal force, is always directed upward the surface over which is placed the object, and can adopt any value, as required to meet Newton's 2nd Law.

In this case, as the external force on the suitcase pulls upward, in order to counteract the influence of gravity, normal force is less than the weight of the suitcase, as follows:

F + Fn = m*g

⇒ Fn = m*g - F

So, the normal force is equal to the magnitude of the weight of the suitcase (m*g) minus the magnitude of the force of the pull (F) which is the same expressed by the statement b.

A 2498 kg car is moving at 17.1 m/s slams on its brakes and slows to 2.6 m/s. What is the magnitude (absolute value) of the impu

bija089 [108]

Answer:

Explanation:

<u>Impulse-Momentum Theorem</u>

These two magnitudes are related in the following way. Suppose an object is moving at a certain speed $v_1$ and changes it to $v_2$ . The impulse is numerically equivalent to the change of linear momentum. Let's recall the momentum is given by

$p=mv$

The initial and final momentums are, respectively

$p_1=mv_1,\ p_2=mv_2$

The change of momentum is

$\Delta p=p_2-p_1=m(v_2-v_1)$

It is numerically equal to the Impulse J

$J=\Delta p$

$J=m(v_2-v_1)$

We are given

$m=2498\ kg,\ v_1=17.1\ m/s,\ v_2=2.6\ m/s$

The impulse the car experiences during that time is

$J=2498(2.6-17.1)=2498(-14.5)$

J=-36221 Kg.m/s

The magnitude of J is

J=36221 Kg.m/s

If a reaction starts with 30 grams how many should it end with ?

zysi [14]

30grams

Explanation:

If a reaction starts with 30grams then the reaction should end with 30grams.

This in conformity with the law of conservation of mass.

The law states that "in an isolated system, mass is neither created nor destroyed during chemical transformation".
Mass is the quantity of matter contained in a substance.
In chemical reactions, the mass of reactants must always be the same with the mass of the product baring any loss.
In an isolated system, there is no exchange of energy and mass.
Chemical systems are usually treated as isolated systems in which mass is conserved.
