Answer:

Kilometers\ in\ 1\ Orbit=\frac{1.28*10^9 Km}{3.7*10^4orbits}

Kilometers\ in\ 1\ Orbit=3.46*10^4 Km/Orbit

Explanation:

Given Data:

Numbers of times Telescope cycled around the earth in 6 years=37,000 times

Total Distance traveled in 6 years by the Hubble Space Telescope=1,280,000,000 Km

Find:

Kilometers in one Orbit=?

Solution:

Kilometers in 37,000 Orbits=1,280,000,000 Km

Kilometers in 1 Orbit=1,280,000,000/37,000

In Scientific Notation:

Kilometers\ in\ 3.7*10^4\ Orbits=1.28*10^9 Km

Kilometers\ in\ 1\ Orbit=\frac{1.28*10^9 Km}{3.7*10^4 orbits}

Kilometers in 1 Orbit=34594.594 Km

Kilometers in 1 Orbit in Scientific notation:

Kilometers\ in\ 1\ Orbit=3.46*10^4 Km

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

150000000000 m

0.0000005 seconds

33.33 ns

Explanation:

Speed of electromagnetic waves through vacuum = 3\times 10^8\ m/s

Echo time = 1000 seconds

Echo time is the time taken to reach the object and come back to the observer

Distance = Speed×Time

Distance=3\times 10^8\times \frac{1000}{2}=150000000000\ m

Venus is 150000000000 m away from Earth

Time = Distance / Speed

Time=\frac{75}{3\times 10^8}=0.00000025\ seconds

Echo time will be twice the time

Echo\ time=2\times 0.00000025=0.0000005\ seconds

The echo time will be 0.0000005 seconds

Difference in time = Difference in distance / Speed

\Delta t=\frac{\Delta d}{v}\\\Rightarrow \Delta t=\frac{10}{3\times 10^8}\\\Rightarrow \Delta=33.33\ ns

The accuracy by which I will be able to measure the echo time is 33.33 ns

What is the value of the composite constant (Gme,/r2e) to be multiplied by the mass of the object mo, in equation below:
Sedbober [7]

To solve this problem we will apply the definitions given in Newtonian theory about the Force of gravity, and the Force caused by weight. Both will be defined below, and in equal equilibrium condition to clear the variable concerning acceleration due to gravity. Finally, with the values provided in the statement, it will be replaced.

The equation for the gravitational force between the Earth and the object on the surface of the Earth is

F_g = \frac{Gm_em_o}{r^2_e}

Where,

G = Universal gravitational constant

m_e = Mass of Earth

r_e= Distance between object and center of earth

m_o= Mass of Object

The equation for the gravitational pulling force on the object due to gravitational acceleration is

F_g = m_o g

Equation the two expression we have

m_o g = \frac{Gm_em_o}{r_e^2}

g = \frac{Gm_e}{r_e^2}

This the acceleration due to gravity which is composite constant.

Replacing with our values we have then

g = \frac{(6.67*10^{-11}N\cdot m^2/kg^2)(5.98*10^{24}kg)}{6378km(\frac{10^3m}{1km})^2}

g = 9.8m/s^2

The value of composite constant is 9.8m/s^2. Here, the composite constant is nothing but the acceleration due to gravity which is constant always.
