Answer:
True
Explanation:
When a satellite is orbiting the earth, the centripetal force is balanced by the gravitational force as :
...........(1)
Where
M is the mass of the earth
m is the mass of the planet
From equation (1), the speed of the satellite depends only on the mass of the earth and the orbital radius.
So, If a payload of material is added until it doubles the satellite's mass, the earth's pull of gravity on this satellite will double but the satellite's orbit will not be affected. It is true.
Hello there! :)
Room temperature is approximately 20°C.
We can automatically eliminate choices B and D since they are not equal to 20°C.
Since some choices use the Kelvin scale, we can convert from Celsius to Kelvin using a simple formula:
K = C° + 273
Find room temperature in degrees <u>Kelvin</u>:
K = 20° + 273
K = 293°
Thus, the correct choice would be <u>C. 293K.</u>
Answer:
Explanation:
Passion
For me, standing on the summit of Mt Everest was the result of following a process. The process of mountaineering. I love mountaineering. I am passionate about it. I love the months of planning for an expedition, the months of sweating and training to prepare my body physically. The meticulous preparation of my equipment. Most of all I love the huge mental challenge I have to overcome before each climb to confront my own fear. All these reasons are why I climb, they are why I climbed Mt Everest and that is why I continue to climb.
Passion is an enormously powerful force. It gives us the strength to get through hard times and setbacks. It gives us strength to overcome our fears, to ignore what other people think of us, to be disciplined and make sacrifices in pursuit of our dreams. Passionate people do not want to take shortcuts – they consider that ‘learning the process’ is an important part of the journey.
In mountaineering it’s easy to spot those who are not passionate about the process. They want to stand on top of the mountain but they are not really interested in the process of climbing the mountain. I feel for these people. Success without hard work is a hollow, empty feeling. They never last long in the sport.
Just as in life, successful mountaineers are the ones who are passionate. They are not there just to stand on the summit. Their passion gives them the energy to work the hardest, fight the longest, and in the words of Winston Churchill “never, never. never give-up”.
EC_1 + EP_1 = EC2 + EP_2
EC_2 = 0
EC_2 = EP_1 - EP_2
EC_2 = mg(H_1 - H_2) = 0.20 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * (3.25 m - 1.5m) = 3.43 J
Answer:
v=32.9m/s
Explanation:
The acceleration needed to mantain a circular motion of radius r and speed v is given by the equation 
This is the centripetal acceleration. The person will feel what is called a centrifugal acceleration, of the same value, because he is not in an inertial frame (thus subject to fictitious forces, product of inertia).
We want to know the speed of his head when it is subject to 12.5 times the value of the acceleration of gravity while moving on a 8.84m radius circle, so we must do:
