Which could cause a satellite to descend low enough that it burns up in the Earths atmosphere?

Physics
2 answers:
Bogdan [553]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

B. Air resistance

Explanation:

If the distance at which the satellite orbits is not enough to avoid the atmospheric drag, it will be affected by the friction of the Earth's atmosphere and the drag will slow down the speed of the satellite. Therefore, It will result in the reduction in the altitude of a satellite's orbit and eventually burn.

What is the relationship between temperature and peak wavelength?
Zepler [3.9K]
The correct option is B.
All objects emit electromagnetic radiation and the amount of radiation emitted at each wavelength depend on the temperature of the object. This observation is described by Wien's law, which states that the black body radiation curve for different temperatures peaks at a wavelength that is inversely proportional to the temperature.

Mercury has a mass of 3.3 e 23 kg and a radius of 2.44 e 6 m. Find Mercury's
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

11.) g = 3.695 m/s^2

12.) g = 8.879 m/s^2

13.) E = 8127 N/C

Explanation:

11.) Given that the

Mercury mass M = 3.3 × 10^23kg

Radius r = 2.44 ×10^6 m

Gravitational constant G = 6.67408 × 10^-11 m3kg-1 s^-2

Gravitational field strength g can be calculated by using the formula below

g = GM/r^2

Substitutes all the parameters into the formula

g = (6.67408 × 10^-11 × 3.3 × 10^23)/(2.44×10^6)^2

g = 2.2×10^13/5.954×10^12

g = 3.695 m/s^2

12.) Given that the

Venus mass M = 4.87×10^24kg

Radius r = 6.05 × 10^6 m

Using the same formula for gravitational field strength g

g = GM/R2

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

g = (6.67408 × 10^-11 × 4.87×10^24)/(6.05×10^6)^2

g = 3.25×10^14/3.66×10^13

g = 8.879 m/s^2

13.) Given that the

Charge = 2.26 nC = 2.26×10^-9

Distance d = 0.05m

Electric field strength E can be calculated by using the formula below

E = Kq/d^2

Where

K = electrostatic constant 8.99 × 10^9 Nm2/C2

Substitutes all the parameters into the formula

E = (8.99 × 10^9 × 2.26×10^-9)/0.05^2

E = 20.3174/2.5×10^-3

E = 8126.96 N/C

What is the current in milliamperes produced by the solar cells of a pocket calculator through which 3.70 C of charge passes in
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Current flowing in the cell will be equal to 0.1284 mA

Explanation:

We have given charge q = 3.70 C

And time through which charge is flowing = 8 hour

We know that 1 hour = 60 minutes, and 1 minute = 60 sec

So 1 hour = 60×60 = 3600 sec

So 8 hour = 8×3600 = 28800 sec

We know that current is rate time rate of flow of charge

So current i=\frac{q}{t}=\frac{3.70}{28800}=1.284\times 10^{-4}A=0.1284mA

So current flowing in the cell will be equal to 0.1284 mA
