16. At a particular point, a satellite in an elliptical orbit has a gravitational potential energy of 7000 MJ with respect to Ea

rth’s surface and a kinetic energy of 4000 MJ. At another point in its orbit, the satellite’s potential energy is 2000 MJ. What is its kinetic energy at that point? Show all calculations leading to your answer.

Assuming conservation of energy:

Energy before = 7000 + 4000 = 11 000 MJ

Energy after = 2000 + Kinetic = 11 000

Therefore Kinetic = 11 000 - 2 000

Kinetic = 9 000 MJ

Cerrena [4.2K]
The flowers reflect relatively low frequency and low amplitude light waves.
White light contains a spectrum of colors, and red light is at the beginning of this spectrum in terms of energy. This means that it has the lowest frequency, as the energy of a wave of light is directly proportional to its frequency.
The amplitude of a light wave gives a measure of how intense the light is. A dull light means that the amplitude of the wave is low.

The hydrogen fusion process will begin after the protostar reaches a temperature of 10 million degrees kelvin, and it will then turn into a stable star.

<h3>How does a protostar become a stable star?</h3>

The interstellar medium can sometimes be gathered into a large nebula, which is a cloud of gas and dust. A nebula can span a number of light years. These nebulae are where gas and dust can combine to produce stars. Until a star can combine hydrogen into helium, it cannot be considered a star. They are referred to as protostars before then. As gravity starts to gather the gases into a ball, a protostar is created. Accrution is the term for this procedure.

Gravitational energy starts to heat the gasses as gravity draws them into the ball's core, which causes the gasses to radiate radiation. Radiation initially just dissipates into space. However, much of the radiation is retained inside the protostar as it draws in stuff and becomes denser, which causes the protostar to heat up even more quickly.

The hydrogen fusion process will begin after the protostar reaches a temperature of 10 million degrees kelvin, and it will then turn into a star.

A chair of weight 100 N lies atop a horizontal floor; the floor is not frictionless. You push on the chair with a force of F = 4
otez555 [7]

Answer:

The normal force will be "122.8 N".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Weight,

W = 100 N

Force,

F = 40 N

Angle,

θ = 35.0°

As we know,

⇒  N=W+FSin \theta

On substituting the given values, we get

⇒      = 100N+40N \ Sin \theta

⇒      =100N+22.8

⇒      =122.8 \ N
