A satellite does not need any fuel to revolve around the earth?why​

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! :-)

Answer:

About 7.67 m/s.

Explanation:

Mechanical energy is always conserved. Hence:

\displaystyle \begin{aligned} E_i & = E_f \\ \\ U_i + K_i &= U_f + K_f\end{aligned}

Where <em>U</em> is potential energy and <em>K</em> is kinetic energy.

Let the bottom of the slide be where potential energy equals zero. As a result, the final potential energy is zero. Additionally, because the child starts from rest, the initial kinetic energy is zero. Thus:

\displaystyle U_i = K_f

Substitute and solve for final velocity:
\displaystyle \begin{aligned} mgh_i &= \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2 \\ \\  2gh_i &= v^2_f \\ \\ v_f &= \sqrt{2gh_i} \\ \\ &  =\sqrt{2(9.8\text{ m/s$^2$})(3.00\text{ m})} \\ \\ & \approx 7.67\text{ m/s} \end{aligned}

In conclusion, the child's speed at the bottom of the slide is about 7.67 m/s.

When jumping, a flea reaches a takeoff speed of 1.0 m/s over a distance of 0.47 mm .What is the flea's acceleration during the j
garri49 [273]
We can use kinematics here if we assume a constant acceleration (not realistic, but they want a single value answer, so it's implied). We know final velocity, vf, is 1.0 m/s, and we cover a distance, d, of 0.47mm or 0.00047 m (1m = 1000mm for conversion). We also can assume that the flea's initial velocity, vi, is 0 at the beginning of its jump. Using the equation vf^2 = vi^2 + 2ad, we can solve for our acceleration, a. Like so: a = (vf^2 - vi^2)/2d = (1.0^2 - 0^2)/(2*0.00047) = 1,064 m/s^2, not bad for a flea!

A car is traveling at 120 km/h (75 mph). When applied the braking system can stop the car with a deceleration rate of 9.0 m/s2.
Bumek [7]

Answer:

the number of additional car lengths approximately it takes the sleepy driver to stop compared to the alert driver is 15

Explanation:

Given that;

speed of car V  = 120 km/h = 33.3333 m/s

Reaction time of an alert driver = 0.8 sec

Reaction time of an alert driver = 3 sec

extra time taken by sleepy driver over an alert driver = 3 - 0.8 = 2.2 sec

now, extra distance that car will travel in case of sleepy driver  will be'

S_d = V × 2.2 sec

S_d = 33.3333 m/s × 2.2 sec

S_d = 73.3333 m

hence, number of car of additional car length  n will be;

n = S_n / car length

n = 73.3333 m / 5m

n = 14.666 ≈ 15

Therefore, the number of additional car lengths approximately it takes the sleepy driver to stop compared to the alert driver is 15
