Answer:

Explanation:

distance of shuttle from centre of the earth = radius of the orbit

= 6300 + 300 = 6600 km

= 6600 x 10³

Formula of time period of the satellite

T = 2π R /v₀ , v₀ is orbital velocity

v₀ = √gR , ( if height  is small with respect to radius )

T = 2π R /√gR

= 2π√ R /√g

= 2 x 3.14 x √ 6600 x 10³ / √9.8

= 2 x 3.14 x 256.9 x 10 / 3.13

= 5154.41 s

= 5154.41 / 60 minutes

= 85.91 m

85.9 minutes.

2 ) No of sunrise per day = no of rotation per day

= 24 x 60 / 85.9

= 16.76

or 17 sunrises.

How do we know the sun rotates?
Eduardwww [97]
Hi pupil Here's your answer ::::


➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡

The sun Doesnt rotates as we know all . But it rotates with the wjole our Milky Way Galaxy. This movement is so slow that we cant even recognise that we are shifted.

This we know because we all had studied about the solar system and space.

By this study we can say that Sun Rotates.

A Neglecting air resistance, a ball projected straight upward so it remains in the air for 10 seconds needs an initial speed of
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

The initial velocity is 50 m/s.

(C) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Time = 10 sec

For first half,

We need to calculate the height

Using equation of motion

v^2=u^2+2gh

h =\dfrac{v^2}{2g}....(I)

For second half,

We need to calculate the time

Using equation of motion

h =ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt_{2}^2

h=0+\dfrac{1}{2}gt_{2}^2

t_{2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{2h}{g}}

Put the value of h from equation (I)

t_{2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times v^2}{g^2}}

t_{2}=\dfrac{v}{g}

According to question,

t_{1}+t_{2}=10

t_{1}=t_{2}

Put the value of t₁ and t₂

\dfrac{v}{g}+\dfrac{v}{g}=10

\dfrac{2v}{g}=10

v=\dfrac{10\times g}{2}

Here, g = 10

The initial velocity is

v=\dfrac{10\times10}{2}

v=50\ m/s

Hence, The initial velocity is 50 m/s.
