Answer:

424088766.068 m

Explanation:

Radius of the circular orbit that the satellite is 2.6 Earth radii (r) = 2.6 R

R = Radius of earth = 6371000 m (mean radius)

In order to find the distance that the satellite travels in 5.89 hours to complete one complete revolution is the circumference of the circular orbit

Circumference of a circle = 2×π×r

⇒Distance travelled in 5.89 hours = 2×π×2.6 R

⇒Distance travelled in 5.89 hours = 2×π×2.6×6371000

⇒Distance travelled in 5.89 hours = 104078451.3393m

Distance travelled in 1 hour = 104078451.3393/5.89 = 17670365.252 m

∴ Distance travelled in 24 hours = 17670365.252×24 = 424088766.068 m

Joule’s law is a linear relationship, that is, the more heat you provide, the greater the temperature change. However, in the pr
Nitella [24]

Answer:

hydrogen bridge

Explanation:

Joule's relationship to heat and temperature is true for all materials where we assume that interatomic forces are linear, when atoms separate these forces decrease. There is a point where the separation between atoms is enough that thermal agitation can separate the molecules and there is a change of state, generally from solid to liquid and from liquid to vapor. When these changes of state are occurring all the energy supplied is used to break the links, so the temperature does not change.

In the specific case of water, there is a bond called a hydrogen bridge that breaks around 4ºC, therefore, at this temperature there is a deviation from the curve since this link is being broken, this does not lead to a change of macroscopic state.

For the other temperatures the water behaves like the other bodies.

One litre of crude oil weighs 9.6N. Calculate its specific weight, density and specific gravity.​
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

The answer is "\bold{9600 \frac{N}{m^3}, 978.59 \frac{kg}{m^3}, and \ 0.978}"

Explanation:

Given:

\to v=1\ liter= 10^{-3} \ m^3\\\\\to  w= 9.6 \ N\\

calculation:

Specific \ weight =\frac{w}{v}=\frac{9.6}{10^{-3}}=9600 \frac{N}{m^3} \\\\w=mg\\\\m= \frac{w}{g}=\frac{9.6}{9.81}=0.9785\ kg\\\\\rho\ (density)=\frac{m}{v}=\frac{0.9785}{10^{-3}}=978.59 \frac{kg}{m^3}\\\\specific \ gravity = \frac{\prho \ obj}{\rho w}=\frac{978.54}{1000}=0.978

A turntable is designed to acquire an angular velocity of 32.4 rev/s in 0.5 s, starting from rest.
horrorfan [7]
Well, the acceleration is the difference of speeds divided by the time period. \frac{32.4}{0.5}=64.8rev/s^2.
One rev/s is 2\pi rad/s^2, so our final result is 64.8*2\pi=407.15rad/s^2.

You are standing on a street corner with your friend. You then travel 14.0 m due west across the street and into your apartment
Margarita [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall express each displacement vectorially , i for each unit displacement towards east , j for northward displacement and k for vertical displacement .

14 m due west = - 14 i

22.0 m upward in the elevator = 22 k

12 m north = 12 j

6.00 m east = 6 i

Total displacement = - 14 i + 22 k + 12 j + 6 i

D = - 8 i + 12 j + 22 k

magnitude = √ ( 8² + 12² + 22² )

= √ ( 64 + 144 + 484 )

= √ 692

= 26.3 m

Net displacement from starting point = 26.3 m .
