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!

In collision of the steel ball and the steel plate, the collision is an inelastic collision and there is loss in the kinetic energy.

<h3>What are collisions?</h3>

Collisions occur when two objects that are moving in the same directions or in different direction meet each other and collide.

There are two types of collisions:

elastic collision - the kinetic energy is conserved
inelastic collision - there is a loss in kinetic energy

In the collision of the steel ball and the steel plate, there is loss in the kinetic energy of the steel ball which is converted to sound energy.

In conclusion, the collision of the steel and steel plate is an inelastic collision.

mass of iron block given as

$m_1 = 1.90 kg$

density of iron block is

$\rho = 7860 kg/m^3$

now the volume of the iron piece is given as

$V = \frac{m}{\rho}$

$V = \frac{1.90}{7860} = 2.42* 10^{-4} m^3$

Now when this iron block is complete submerged in oil inside the beaker the buoyancy force on the iron block will be given as

$F_b = \rho_L V g$

here we know that

$\rho_L$ = density of liquid = 916 kg/m^3

$F_b = 916* 2.42 * 10^{-4} * 9.8$

$F_b = 2.17 N$

Now for the reading of spring balance we can say the spring force and buoyancy force on the block will counter balance the weight of the block at equilibrium

$F_s + F_b = mg$

$F_s + 2.17 = 1.90* 9.8$

$F_s = 16.45 N$

So reading of spring balance will be 16.45 N

Now for other scale which will read the normal force of the surface we can write that normal force on the container will balance weight of liquid + container and buoyancy force on block

$F_n = F_g + F_b$
