They don't need gas because satellites rotate around the world using our planet's gravitational force as centripetal force. That as well as since there is no air in space, it doesn't have to work against air resistance. This way it doesn't lose energy by going around and around the Earth.

Hope this helps, have a BLESSED day! :-)

A roller coaster has a mass of 450 kgIt sits at the top of a hill with height 49 m. If it drops from this hill, how fast is it g
fgiga [73]

The speed of the roller coater at the bottom of the hill is 31 m/s.

<h3>Speed of the roller coater at the bottom of the hill</h3>

Apply the principle of conservation of mechanical energy as follows;

K.E(bottom) = P.E(top)

¹/₂mv² = mgh

v² = 2gh

v = √2gh

where;

  • v is the speed of the coater at bottom hill
  • h is the height of the hill
  • g is acceleration due to gravity

v = √(2 x 9.8 x 49)

v = 31 m/s

Thus, the speed of the roller coater at the bottom of the hill is 31 m/s.

A 1200 kg car traveling east at 4.5 m/s crashes into the side of a 2100 kg truck that is not moving. During the collision, the v
Rasek [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

This is a simple Law of Momentum Conservation problem of the inelastic type. The equation for this is

[m_1v_1+m_2v_2]_b=[(m_1+m_2)v]_a  Filling in:

[1200(4.5)+2100(0)]=[(1200+2100)v] which simplifies to

5400 + 0 = 3300v

so v = 1.6 m/s to the east, choice B

A golf ball stays on the tee until the golf club hits it. Which of the following principles best describes why this occurs? Grou
givi [52]

Answer:

Newton's First Law of Motion.

Explanation:

Newton's first law of motion states that an object continues to stay in its state of rest, or of uniform motion, until acted upon by an external force.

So in the case of the golf ball here, the ball stays in its state of rest, on the tee, until the golf club hits it, i.e. , applies an external force on it.

Hence we can say that Newton's First Law of Motion is the principle which is most suitable for explaining this phenomenon.
