Sex cells have half as many chromosomes as other cells. Sex cells are therefore called haploid.

Based on the law of conservation of energy, how can we reasonably improve a machine’s ability to do work?

MrMuchimi

D. Redefine the machine’s system boundaries.

The Law of Conservation of Energy states that energy can't be created not destroyed. Energy, however, can be changed from one form to another. The law applies to isolated systems only. By redefining and expanding the system (including all factors affecting it) , the machine's ability to do work should improve.

A satellite orbits earth with a mean altitude of 361 km. If the orbit is circular, what are the satellite's time period and spee

Advocard [28]

Answer:

v = 7.69 x 10³ m/s = 7690 m/s

T = 5500 s = 91.67 min = 1.53 h

Explanation:

In order for the satellite to orbit the earth, the force of gravitation on satellite must be equal to the centripetal force acting on it:

$F_{gravitation}= F_{centripetal}\\\\\frac{GM_{s} M_{E}}{r^2} = \frac{M_{s} v^2}{r}\\\\\frac{GM_{E}}{r} = v^2\\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{GM_{E}}{r} } \\\\$

where,

G = Universal Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²

Me = Mass of Earth = 5.97 x 10²⁴ kg

r = distance between the center of Earth and Satellite = Radius of Earth + Altitude = 6.371 x 10⁶ m + 0.361 x 10⁶ m = 6.732 x 10⁶ m

v = orbital speed = ?

Therefore,

$v = \sqrt{\frac{(6.67 x 10^{-11}N.m^2/kg^2)(5.97 x 10^{24} kg)}{6.732 x 10^6 m} }\\\\$

For time period satellite completes one revolution around the earth. It means that the distance covered by satellite is equal to circumference of circle at the given altitude.

So, its orbital speed can be given as:

$v = \frac{Circumference of Circle at Given Altitude}{T}\\\\v = \frac{2\pi r}{T}\\\\$

where,

T = Time Period of Satellite = ?

Therefore,

$T = \frac{2\pi r}{v}\\\\T = \frac{(2\pi )(6.732 x 10^6 m}{7.69 x 10^3 m/s}\\\\$

The formula is x = 1/2 at^2 and I have managed to fill in the variables as this. d = 1/2 9.81 m/s^2 1^2

Artyom0805 [142]

Right, as you mentioned in the comments, you find $d$ by plugging in the different values of $t$ .

For $t=1\,\mathrm s$ , we have

$d=\dfrac12\left(9.81\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(1\,\mathrm s)^2$

$d=\left(4.905\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\left(1\,\mathrm s^2\right)$

$d=4.905\,\mathrm m$

Similarly, for $t=2\,\mathrm s$ , you get

$d=\dfrac12\left(9.81\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\left(2\,\mathrm s\right)$

$d=\left(4.905\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\left(4\,\mathrm s^2\right)$

$d=19.62\,\mathrm m$
