(a) 0.448
The gravitational potential energy of a satellite in orbit is given by:

where
G is the gravitational constant
M is the Earth's mass
m is the satellite's mass
r is the distance of the satellite from the Earth's centre, which is sum of the Earth's radius (R) and the altitude of the satellite (h):
r = R + h
We can therefore write the ratio between the potentially energy of satellite B to that of satellite A as

and so, substituting:

We find

(b) 0.448
The kinetic energy of a satellite in orbit around the Earth is given by

So, the ratio between the two kinetic energies is

Which is exactly identical to the ratio of the potential energies. Therefore, this ratio is also equal to 0.448.
(c) B
The total energy of a satellite is given by the sum of the potential energy and the kinetic energy:

For satellite A, we have

For satellite B, we have

So, satellite B has the greater total energy (since the energy is negative).
(d) 
The difference between the energy of the two satellites is:

<span>Given:
3,500 kilometers
Find:</span>
Years for two continents to collide = ?
<span>Solution:
We know that </span>typical motions of one plate relative to another
are 1 centimeter per year.
So first, we convert 3,500 km to cm.<span>
</span><span>
</span>
The solution would be like this for this specific problem:
1 km = 100,000 cm
3,500 km x 100,000 = 350,000,000 cm
Since we know that 1 cm = 1 year, then that means
350,000,000 cm is equivalent to 350,000,000 years.
Therefore, it would take 350 million years for two continents
that are 3500 kilometers apart to collide.

To add, </span>a phenomenon of the plate tectonics of Earth that occurs at
convergent boundaries is called the continental collision.
Answer:
600Hz
Explanation:
In electrical systems of alternating current, the harmonics are, as in acoustics, frequencies multiples of the fundamental working frequency of the system and whose amplitude decreases as the multiple increases. For example, if we have systems fed by the 50 Hz network, harmonics of 100, 150, 200, etc. may appear.
In our case having a fundamental wave of 100Hz, I can have harmonics of 200,300,400, ..., 600Hz
Answer:
the force required to accelerate a 1,100kg car is 550N
Answer:
Option B) This minimizes the harmful side effects of the radiations
Explanation:
Half-life is the time taken for the decay of an radio-active atom in which it disintegrates such that it becomes half of its value at the beginning.... The nuclei should be in active mode for a longer duration sufficient for the treatment of the condition but these nuclei should have a sufficient shorter half life so that they don't get enough time to cause any damage to the health of the person other than treating the cause.
A shorter half life gives the assurance that the radiation after the treatment will leave the body without getting accumulated and cause harm to the body cells and other organs.
