What is the period (in hours) of a satellite circling Mars 100 km above the planet's surface? The mass of Mars is 6.42 × 1023 kg
scZoUnD [109]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Centrifugal Force and the Gravitational Force. Since there is balance on the body these two Forces will be equal, mathematically they can be expressed as

F_c = F_g

\frac{mv^2}{r} = \frac{GmM}{r^2}

Where,

m = Mass

G =Gravitational Universal Constant

M = Mass of the Planet

r = Distance/Radius

Re-arrange to find the velocity we have,

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

At the same time we know that the period is equivalent in terms of the linear velocity to,

T = \frac{2\pi}{\frac{v}{r}}

v = \frac{2\pi r}{T}

If our values are that the radius of mars is 3400 km and the distance above the planet is 100km more, i.e, 3500km we have,

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

( \frac{2\pi r}{T})^2 =  \frac{GM}{r}

T = \sqrt{\frac{4\pi^2 r^3}{GM}}

Replacing we have,

T = \sqrt{\frac{4\pi^2 (3500*10^3)^3}{(6.67430*10^{-11})(6.42*10^23)}}

T = 6285.09s (\frac{1min}{60s})(\frac{1hour}{60min})

T= 1.74hour

Therefore the correct answer is C.

What is described by the terms body-centered cubic and face-centered cubic?
Montano1993 [528]
In physical chemistry, the terms body-centered cubic  (BCC) and face-centered cubic (FCC) refer to the cubic crystal system of a solid. Each solid is made up simple building blocks called lattice units. There are different layouts of a lattice unit.

It is better understood using 3-D models shown in the picture. A BCC unit cell has one lattice point in the center, together with eight corner atoms which represents 1/8 of an atom. Therefore, there are 1+ 8(1/8) = 2 atoms in a BCC unit cell. On the other hand, a FCC unit cell is composed of half of an atom in each of its faces and 1/8 of an atom in its corners. Therefore, there are (1/2)6 + (1/8)8 = 4 atoms in a FCC unit cell.
