The reason an astronaut in an earth satellite feels weightless is that the astronaut is falling.
Option a
<u>Explanation: </u>
The other options except Option is not applicable since the gravitational force is a long range force, in which the satellite revolves very close to the surface of the Earth where the gravity is felt.The zero weight experienced by the astronaut in a satellite is due to the earth pulling along with satellite. Due to gravitational force of the Earth,the astronaut falls freely .
But why not the satellite comes down due to gravity when its launched in space. The fact is that the satellite is launched with velocity of tangent direction and it is very high. The centripetal force balances the gravity.
After notifying the PIC of your arrival, it is best to approach the sides of the helicopter in this scenario.
<h3>What is an Ambulance?</h3>
This is a vehicle which contains medical equipments and are involved in the transportation of patients to healthcare facilities.
It is best to approach the sides of the helicopter and not tail rotor end to ensure visibility and safety.

Answer:
a) v = 88.54 m/s
b) vf = 26.4 m/s
Explanation:
Given that;
m = 1400.0 kg
a)
by using the energy conservation
loss in potential energy is equal to gain in kinetic energy
mg × ( 3200-2800) = 1/2 ×m×v²
so
1400 × 9.8 × 400 = 0.5 × 1400 × v²
5488000 = 700v²
v² = 5488000 / 700
v² = 7840
v = √7840
v = 88.54 m/s
b)
Work done by all forces is equal to change in KE
W_gravity + W_non - conservative = 1/2×m×(vf² - vi²)
we substitute
1400 × 9.8 × ( 3200-2800) - (5 × 10⁶) = 1/2 × 1400 × (vf² -0 )
488000 = 700 vf²
vf² = 488000 / 700
vf² = 697.1428
vf = √697.1428
vf = 26.4 m/s
<span>Scientific theories are tested and proven over time; they are then considered scientific laws.
Sometimes however, they are proven wrong, and so they do not become laws
