Chegg Given that the mean radius of the Moon’s orbit is 3.84 x 108 m and its period is 2.36 x 106 sec, at what altitude above th

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

The altitude of geostationary satellite is $3.58\times10^{7}\ m$

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of moon's orbit $r=3.84\times10^{8}\ m$

Time period $T=2.36\times10^{6}\ sec$

We need to calculate the orbital radius of geostationary satellite is

Using formula of time period

$T=\sqrt{\dfrac{4\pi^2}{GM}a^3}$

$a=((\dfrac{GM}{4\pi^2})T^2)^{\dfrac{1}{3}}$

Where, G = gravitational constant

M = Mass of earth

T = time period of geostationary satellite orbit

Put the value in to the formula

$a=((\dfrac{6.67\times10^{-11}\times5.97\times10^{24}}{4\times\pi^2})\times(86160)^2)^{\dfrac{1}{3}}$

$a=4.217\times10^{7}\ m$

We need to calculate the altitude of geostationary satellite

Using formula of altitude

$h = a-R_{e}$

Where, R = radius of earth

a = radius of geostationary satellite

Put the value into the formula

$h =4.217\times10^{7}-6.38\times10^{6}$

$h =35790000\ m$

$h=3.58\times10^{7}\ m$

Hence, The altitude of geostationary satellite is $3.58\times10^{7}\ m$

A plane flying at a steady speed of 100 m/s accelerates to 150 m/s in 10 seconds. What is the plane’s acceleration?

Rashid [163]

A plane flying initially at 100 m/s uses an acceleration of 5 m/s² to reach a velocity of 150 m/s in 10 seconds.

<h3>What is acceleration?</h3>

Acceleration is the change in velocity over time.

A plane is flying initially at 100 m/s (u) and it accelerates to 150 m/s (v) in 10 s (t). We can calculate its acceleration using the following expression.

a = v - u / t = (150 m/s - 100 m/s) / 10 s = 5 m/s²

A plane flying initially at 100 m/s uses an acceleration of 5 m/s² to reach a velocity of 150 m/s in 10 seconds.

Mrs. Paul and Dr. Mykannen ride a tandem bike on the beach. They ride along the beach for about 455 meters. Their final velocity

algol [13]

Answer:

Time = 80.91 seconds

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Velocity = 5.50 m/s.

Distance = 445 meters

To find the time;

Velocity can be defined as the rate of change in displacement (distance) with time. Velocity is a vector quantity and as such it has both magnitude and direction.

Mathematically, velocity is given by the equation;

$Velocity = \frac{distance}{time}$

Substituting into the formula, we have;

5.5 = 445/time

Time = 445/5.5

Time = 80.91 seconds
