The equation for the speed of a satellite in a circular orbit around the earth depends on mass. Which mass?

katovenus [111]

<h3><u>Question: </u></h3>

The equation for the speed of a satellite in a circular orbit around the Earth depends on mass. Which mass?

a. The mass of the sun

b. The mass of the satellite

c. The mass of the Earth

<h3><u>Answer:</u></h3>

The equation for the speed of a satellite orbiting in a circular path around the earth depends upon the mass of Earth.

Option c

<h3><u> Explanation: </u></h3>

Any particular body performing circular motion has a centripetal force in picture. In this case of a satellite revolving in a circular orbit around the earth, the necessary centripetal force is provided by the gravitational force between the satellite and earth. Hence $F_{G} = F_{C}$ .

Gravitational force between Earth and Satellite: $F_{G} = \frac{G \times M_e \times M_s}{R^2}$

Centripetal force of Satellite : $F_C = \frac{M_s \times V^2}{R}$

Where G = Gravitational Constant

$M_e$ = Mass of Earth

$M_s$ = Mass of satellite

R= Radius of satellite’s circular orbit

V = Speed of satellite

Equating $F_G = F_C$ , we get

Speed of Satellite $V =\frac{\sqrt{G \times M_e}}{R}$

Thus the speed of satellite depends only on the mass of Earth.

The concentration of sodium and potassium ions in the blood and body fluid is regulated by :

Liula [17]

Answer:

Kidney

Explanation:

One of the main function of the kidney is to maintain the homeostasis of sodium and potassium ions in the blood and body.

Aldosterone is a key steroid hormone that balances sodium and potassium ions in the blood and body fluid. Potassium and sodium ions generate electric impulse in the body which helps to perform different activities such as muscles flexing.

Kidney function for reabsorption and secretion, in which reabsorption of Na is done nd balances the sodium and potassium in the blood and body.

liquid helium has a very low boiling point, 4.2 k, as well as a very low latent heat of vaporization, 2.00 104 j/kg. if energy i

aksik [14]

$4.80 \times 10^3 \text { seconds }$ long does it take to boil away 2.40 kg of the liquid.

Boiling point of He is $T=4.2 \mathrm{k}$

Latent heat of vapourization $L=2.00 \times 10^4 \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{kg}$

Power of electrical heater $P=30 \mathrm{w}$

mass of liquid is $m=2.40 \mathrm{~kg}$

amount of heat required to boil

$\begin{aligned}&Q=m L \\&Q=2.40 \times 2 \times 10^4 \mathrm{~J} \\&Q=4.80 \times 10^4 \mathrm{~J}\end{aligned}$

Power $p=\frac{\text { work }}{\text { time }}=\frac{\text { Energy }}{\text { Time }}$

$\begin{aligned}P &=\frac{Q}{t} \\\text { tine } t &=\frac{Q}{P}=\frac{4.80 \times 10^4 \mathrm{~J}}{10} \\t &=4.80 \times 10^3 \text { seconds }\end{aligned}$

The heat or energy that is absorbed or released during a substance's phase shift is known as latent heat. It could go from a solid to a liquid or from a liquid to a gas, or vice versa. Enthalpy, a characteristic of heat, is connected to latent heat.

The heat that is used or lost as matter melts and transitions from a solid to a fluid form at a constant temperature is known as the latent heat of fusion.

Due to the fact that during softening the heat energy anticipated to transform the substance from solid to fluid at air pressure is the latent heat of fusion and that the temperature remains constant during the process, the "enthalpy" of fusion is a latent heat. The enthalpy change of any quantity of material during dissolution is known as the latent heat of fusion.
