Answer:

The correct options are (a) and (d)

a. A satellite's motion is independent of its mass.

d. The launch speed of a satellite determines the shape of its orbit around Earth

Explanation:

The velocity of the satellite is given by the equation

v = √(GM)/R

Where G is gravitational constant, M is the mass of the target planet and R is the orbital radius.

Therefore, we can conclude that the motion of satellite doesn't depend on its mass.

The gravitational force doesn't change the speed of a satellite so it means that the initial velocity of the satellite will determine the orbital path of the satellite.

A geosynchronous satellite has a period of 1 day.

Calculate the average speed in metres per second from Glasgow to Edinburgh
mariarad [96]
This is the same question as the one previously but with more details, so I will just use my previous answer.

1800 to 1820 is 20 minutes.1830 to 1838 is 8 minutes.1840 to 1905 is 25 minutes.
The total time travelled is 20+8+25 = 53 minutes = 3180 seconds.
The distance between Glasgow and Edinburgh is 28 + 12 + 34 = 74 km = 74000 m.

So, the average speed is 74000m/3180s = 23.27 m/s (4 s.f.)

A larger truck takes more force to move<br><br> What law of motion is it?
Y_Kistochka [10]
Newton's Second Law would probably best describe this. 
F = ma 
Where F = force
m = mass
a = acceleration 

The force required is dependant on the mass, and where the mass is greater, the force required will be greater.
