Answer:

The correct answer is the orbit.

Explanation:

Satellites are continuously attracted to the earth by the force of gravity. Inertia is the force that keeps satellites in a straight motion, pushing them into space.  Gravity brakes and accommodates the satellite concerning the curvature of the earth. The speed at which the satellite is propelled must be precise so that it can remain in orbit concerning the earth.

To exemplify this, if the satellite has a high speed, it will move out of orbit into space. But if it moves too slowly, gravity will bring it back to Earth.

Have a nice day!

A load of mass 5kg is raised through a height of 2m. (g=10mls)​
s2008m [1.1K]

The gain in gravitational potential energy of the mass = 100 kg m^2 / s^2.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Gravitational potential energy is an energy in which an object possesses because of its position in a gravitational field. The most common use of gravitational potential energy is for an object near the Earth's surface where the gravitational acceleration can be assumed to be constant at about 9.8 m/s2.

The formula for the gravitational potential energy is the product of mass, gravity, and height.

             GPE = m *g *h

where m represents mass in kg,

           g represents the gravity,

           h represents the height.

          GPE    = 5 * 10 * 2 = 100 kg m^2 / s^2.

The elementary particle called a muon is unstable and decays in about 2.20μs2.20μs , as observed in its rest frame, into an elec
vredina [299]

Answer:

5.865 μs

Explanation:

t₀ = Time taken to decay a muon = 2.20 μs

c = Speed of Light in vacuum = 3×10⁸ m/s

v = Velocity of muon = 0.927 c

t = Lifetime observed

Time dilation

t=\frac{t_0}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{2.2\times 10^{-6}}{\sqrt{1-\frac{(0.927c)^2}{c^2}}}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{2.2\times 10^{-6}}{\sqrt{1-0.927^2}}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{2.2\times 10^{-6}}{\sqrt{0.140671}}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{2.2\times 10^{-6}}{0.3750}\\\Rightarrow t=5.865\times 10^{-6}\ seconds

∴Lifetime observed for muons approaching at 0.927 the speed of light is 5.865 μs
