Answer:

Orbital period, T = 93.89 minutes

Explanation:

It is given that,

The tangential speed of the Hubble Space Telescope, v = 7750 m/s

The radius of earth, r=6.38\times 10^6\ m

We need to find the orbital period of the Hubble Space Telescope that orbits 569 km above the Earth's surface i.e. h = 569 km = 569000 m

The orbital speed is given by,

v=\dfrac{2\pi R}{T}

T is the orbital period

R = r + h

R = 6949000 m

T=\dfrac{2\pi R}{v}

T=\dfrac{2\pi \times 6949000\ m}{7750\ m/s}

T = 5633.78 s

or

T = 93.89 minutes

So, the orbital period of the Hubble Space Telescope is 93.89 minutes. Hence, this is the required solution.

A -1.12 μC charge is placed at the center of a conducting spherical shell, and a total charge of +8.65 μC is placed on the shell
Lisa [10]

Answer: 7.53 μC

Explanation: In order to explain this problem  we have to use the gaussian law so we have:

∫E.dS=Qinside/εo we consider a gaussian surface inside the conducting spherical shell so E=0

Q inside= 0 = q+ Qinner surface=0

Q inner surface= 1.12μC so in the outer surface the charge is (8.65-1.12)μC=7.53μC

A,b,c,d please I don't understand it.

For A: LED outdoor lighting.
Because you want it to be able to withstand outdoor conditions. If it can’t withstand... there’s no light... no light... no advertisement.

For B: it would be lithonium lights. It’s found in most offices and gives the best light for working day or night.

For C: you’ll want elevated lights so they are noticed for the plane to land and for people and others to see.

For D: you want white light and you want it to also be able to withstand outdoor conditions. Cars and people need to see at night, especially at night. Solar would be a great choice.

Hope this helps! I tried hard.
