<span>When an electric current flows through a long conductor, each free electron moves from one end of the other end. When an electric field is applied to a conductor (a wire) the free electrons of the conductor are subject to an electric force which will cause the electrons to move. Given that the electrons are negatively charged they will move counter-wise the field.. Each end of the wire is attached to one pole or end of a battery (or generator of electricity) then the electrons will move form the end joined to the negative pole toward the end attached to positive pole.</span><span />
Refer to the diagram shown below.
Given:
R = 6.37 x 10⁶ m, the radius of the earth
h = 3.58 x 10⁷ m, the height of the satellite above the earth's surface.
Therefore
R + h = 4.217 x 10⁷ m
In geosynchronous orbit, the period of rotation is 1 day.
Therefore the period is
T = (24 h)*(60 min/h)*(60 s/min) = 86400 s
The angular velocity is
ω = (2π rad)/(86400 s) = 7.2722 x 10⁻⁵ rad/s
Part (a)
The tangential speed is
v = (R+h)*ω
= (4.217 x 10⁷ m)*(7.2722 x 10⁻⁵ rad/s)
= 3066.7 m/s
= 3.067 km/s
Part (b)
The centripetal acceleration is
a = v²/(R+h)
= (3066.7 m/s)²/(4.217 x 10⁷ m)
= 0.223 m/s²
Answers:
(a) The speed is 3.067 km/s
(b) The acceleration is 0.223 m/s²
Answer:
<em>Entropy Change = 0.559 Times</em>
Explanation:
Entropy change is determined by the change in the micro-states of a system. As we know that the micro-states are the same as measure of disorderness between initial and final states, that's the the amount of change in micro-states determine how much of entropy has changed in the system.
Answer:
Friction is when a force is applied or done by weight dragging onto something.
Explanation:
Gravity is when an object is getting pulled toward the center of what is attracting it. And applied force is when someone/sommething is applying force.
