Which of Newton's laws explains why satellites need very little fuel to stay in oribit?
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Sattelites don't need any fuel to stay in orbit. The applicable law is...."objects in motion tend to stay in motion". Having reached orbital velocity, any such object is essentially "falling" around the earth. Since there is no (or at least very little) friction in the vacuum of space, the object does not slow.... It simply continues.


Sattelites in "low" earth orbit do encounter some friction from the very thin upper atmosphere, and they will eventually "decay".

Help it’s multiple choice 11 through 15 please!
riadik2000 [5.3K]

1. • Here, force of gravity on the block = 20 N.

• Therefore, the normal force will also be the same, i.e., 20 N [According to Newton's Third Law, on every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction]

• The coefficient

u_{k} = 0.4

• Force of friction =

u_{k} \times  \: normal \:  \:  \: force \\  = 0.4 \times 20N \\  = 8N

• Hence, the force of sliding friction between the block and the ground is 8 N.

• So, it is option c. 8 N

2. The answer is option d. continue in the same direction with no change in speed.

We know, force = mass × acceleration. When force is 0, then acceleration will also be 0 since mass cannot be 0. So, there will be no change in speed.

3. It is option b. force that is required to give a one kilogram object the acceleration of 1 m/s^2.

Newton is the SI unit of force. As mentioned earlier, force = mass × acceleration. The SI unit of mass and acceleration is Kg and m/s^2 respectively.

So, 1 N = 1 Kg × 1 m/s^2.

4. It is d. not zero.

Acceleration is the change in speed. So, if the force is zero, then acceleration will not occur.

5. Force = 2 N

Acceleration of the object A = 2 m/s^2.

Acceleration of the object B = 1 m/s^2.

Therefore, mass of the object A = 2 N ÷ 2 m/s^2 = 1 Kg

And, mass of the object B = 2 N ÷ 1 m/s^2 = 2 Kg

So, the mass of object B is greater than that of object A.

Hence, the answer is option c. Object B has more mass.

Hope you could get an idea from here.

Consider a golf ball with a mass of 45.9 grams traveling at 200 km/hr. If an experiment is designed to measure the position of t
Kipish [7]

Answer:

speed of golf ball is 1.15 × 10^{-30} m/s

and % of uncertainty in speed =  2.07 × 10^{-30} %

Explanation:

given data

mass = 45.9 gram = 0.0459 kg

speed = 200 km/hr = 55.5 m/s

uncertainty position Δx = 1 mm = 10^{-3} m

to find out

speed of the golf ball and  % of speed of the golf ball

solution

we will apply here heisenberg uncertainty principle that is

uncertainty position ×uncertainty momentum ≥ \frac{h}{4\pi }    ......1

Δx × ΔPx  ≥ \frac{h}{4\pi }

here uncertainty momentum ΔPx = mΔVx

and uncertainty velocity = ΔVx

and h = 6.626 × 10^{-34} Js

so put here all these value in equation 1

10^{-3} × 0.0459 × ΔVx =  \frac{6.626*10^{-34}}{4\pi }

ΔVx = 1.15 × 10^{-30} m/s

and

so % of uncertainty in speed = ΔV / m

% of uncertainty in speed =  1.15 × 10^{-30}  / 55.5

% of uncertainty in speed =  2.07 × 10^{-30} %
