Two satellites are in circular orbits around a planet that has radius 9.00x10^6 m. One satellite has mass 53.0 kg , orbital radi

us 8.20×10^7 m, and orbital speed 4800 m/s. The second satellite has mass 54.0 kg and orbital radius 7.00×10^7 m.

Answer:

The orbital speed of this second satellite is 5195.16 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Orbital radius of first satellite r_{1}= 8.20\times10^{7}

Orbital radius of second satellite r_{2}=7.00\times10^{7}\ m

Mass of first satellite m_{1}=53.0\ kg

Mass of second satellite m_{2}=54.0\ kg

Orbital speed of first satellite = 4800 m/s

We need to calculate the orbital speed of this second satellite

Using formula of orbital speed

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{r}}

From this relation,

v_{1}\propto\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{r}}

Now, \dfrac{v_{1}}{v_{2}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{r_{2}}{r_{1}}}

v_{2}=v_{1}\times\sqrt{\dfrac{r_{1}}{r_{2}}}

Put the value into the formula

v_{2}=4800\times\sqrt{\dfrac{ 8.20\times10^{7}}{7.00\times10^{7}}}

v_{2}=5195.16\ m/s

Hence, The orbital speed of this second satellite is 5195.16 m/s.

While playing baseball with your friends your hands begin to sting after you ctach several fast balls.
muminat

Answer:

Explanation:

To stop a ball with high momentum in a small-time imparts a high amount of impact on hands. This is the reason for the stinging of hands.

The momentum of the ball is due to the mass and velocity. To prevent stinging in the hand one needs to lower his hands to increase the time of contact. In this way, the momentum transfer to the hands will be lesser.
