Answers:
a) 5400000 J
b) 45.92 m
Explanation:
a) The kinetic energy
of an object is given by:

Where:
is the mass of the train
is the speed of the train
Solving the equation:

This is the train's kinetic energy at its top speed
b) Now, according to the Conservation of Energy Law, the total initial energy is equal to the total final energy:


Where:
is the train's initial kinetic energy
is the train's initial potential energy
is the train's final kinetic energy
is the train's final potential energy, where
is the acceleration due gravity and
is the height.
Rewriting the equation with the given values:

The velocity of a satellite describing a circular orbit is <u>constant</u> and defined by the following expression:
(1)
Where:
is the gravity constant
the mass of the massive body around which the satellite is orbiting
the radius of the orbit (measured from the center of the planet to the satellite).
Note this orbital speed, as well as orbital period, does not depend on the mass of the satellite. I<u>t depends on the mass of the massive body.</u>
In addition, this orbital speed is constant because at all times <u>both the kinetic energy and the potential remain constant</u> in a circular (closed) orbit.
I would believe that this is false.
Convection is the movement caused within a fluid by the tendency of hotter and therefore less dense material to rise, and colder, denser material to sink under the influence of gravity, which consequently results in transfer of heat
