A 1000 kg satellite and a 2000 kg satellite follow exactly the same orbit around the earth. What is the ratio F1/F2 of the gravi
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

the <em>ratio F1/F2 = 1/2</em>

the <em>ratio a1/a2 = 1</em>

Explanation:

The force that both satellites experience is:

F1 = G M_e m1 / r²       and

F2 = G M_e m2 / r²

where

  • m1 is the mass of satellite 1
  • m2 is the mass of satellite 2
  • r is the orbital radius
  • M_e is the mass of Earth

Therefore,

F1/F2 = [G M_e m1 / r²] / [G M_e m2 / r²]

F1/F2 = [G M_e m1 / r²] × [r² / G M_e m2]

F1/F2 = m1/m2

F1/F2 = 1000/2000

<em>F1/F2 = 1/2</em>

The other force that the two satellites experience is the centripetal force. Therefore,

F1c = m1 v² / r    and

F2c = m2 v² / r

where

  • m1 is the mass of satellite 1
  • m2 is the mass of satellite 2
  • v is the orbital velocity
  • r is the orbital velocity

Thus,

a1 = v² / r ⇒ v² = r a1    and

a2 = v² / r ⇒ v² = r a2

Therefore,

F1c = m1 a1 r / r = m1 a1

F2c = m2 a2 r / r = m2 a2

In order for the satellites to stay in orbit, the gravitational force must equal the centripetal force. Thus,

F1 = F1c

G M_e m1 / r² = m1 a1

a1 = G M_e / r²

also

a2 = G M_e / r²

Thus,

a1/a2 = [G M_e / r²] / [G M_e / r²]

<em>a1/a2 = 1</em>

4. Two particles, A and B, are in uniform circular motion about a common center. The acceleration of particle A is 7.3 times tha
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Acceleration of particle A is 7.3 times the acceleration of particle B.

Let the acceleration of particle B is a, then the acceleration of particle A is

7.3 a.

Let the period of particle A is T and the period of particle B is 2.5 T.

Let the radius of particle A is RA and the radius of particle B is RB.

Use the formula for the centripetal force

a=r\omega ^{2}=r\times \frac{4\pi^{2}}{T^{2}}

So, r = a\frac{T^{2}}{4\pi^{2}}

The ratio of radius of A to the radius of B is given by

\frac{R_{A}}{R_{B}}=\frac{a_{A}\times T_{A}^{2}}{a_{B}\times T_{B}^{2}}

\frac{R_{A}}{R_{B}}=\frac{7.3 a\times T^{2}}{a\times 6.25T^{2}}

RA : RB = 1.17

Which of the following correctly describes the relative air pressure at the center of a hurricane, with respect to the horizonta
vampirchik [111]

Explanation:

The pressure of hurricane which is high decreases gradually as we move higher . The pressure is maximum at the surface . Hence the relative air pressure is higher at the surface and low at the top . Like wise the pressure is low at the center and keeps on increasing when we move outside . Hence the answer is pressure is high at surface and low aloft.
