1) Average speed

2) Displacement

Explanation:

1)

Speed is a scalar quantity which gives a measure of how fast a body is moving. It is equal to the ratio between the distance travelled by an object and the time taken to cover that distance:

speed = \frac{d}{\Delta t}

where

d is the distance covered

\Delta t is the time taken

It is important to note that being a scalar, speed does not have any direction. Moreover, distance is also a scalar quantity, which corresponds to the total length of the path covered by the object, regardless on the direction taken.

So, the equation "travelled distance/elapsed time" corresponds to the average speed. (where the term average refers to the fact we are not measuring the speed at a specific instant in time, but on a certain time interval \Delta t.

2)

Velocity is a vector quantity, so it has both a magnitude and a direction.

The magnitude of the velocity is given by:

velocity=\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}

where

\Delta x is the change in position (or displacement) of the object

\Delta t is the time taken

And the direction of the velocity corresponds to the direction of the displacement.

We must note that while distance does not depend on the direction, displacement does. In fact, displacement measures the difference between the initial and final position of the object.

Therefore, the equation "change in position / elapsed time" is equal to the average velocity.

Geosynchronous satellites orbit the Earth at a distance of 42 000 km from the Earth's center. Their angular speed at this height
frozen [14]

Answer:

Force will be 7.97 N

Explanation:

We have given that earth is at s distance of 42000 km from the earth center

So r = 42000 km = 42000000 m

Mass m = 1500 kg

Angular velocity of earth \omega =7.29\times 10^{-5}rad/sec

We have to find the force

We know that force is given by

F=m\omega ^2r=1500\times (7.29\times 10^{-5})^2\times 42000000=797.1615\times 10^{-2}=7.97N
