A _____ satellite system employs many satellites that are spaced so that, from any point on the Earth at any time, at least one

Answer:

d. low earth orbit (LEO)

Explanation:

This type of satellites form a constellation deployed as a series of “necklaces” in such a way that at any time, at least one satellite is visible by a receiver antenna, compensating the movement due to the earth rotation.

Opposite to that, a geostationary satellite is at an altitude that makes it  like a fixed point over the Earth´s equator, rotating synchronously with the Earth, so it is always visible in a given area.

Six housing subdivisions within a city area are target for emergency service by a centralized fire station. Where should the new
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Since there are six points, the minimum distance from all points would be the centroid of polygon formed by A,B,C,D,E,F

To find the coordinates of centroid of a polygon we use the following formula. Let A be area of the polygon.

C_{x}=\frac{1}{6A} sum(({x_{i} +x_{i+1})(x_{i}y_{i+1}-x_{i+1}y_{i}))     where i=1 to N-1 and N=6

C_{y}=\frac{1}{6A} sum(({y_{i} +y_{i+1})(x_{i}y_{i+1}-x_{i+1}y_{i}))

A area of the polygon can be found by the following formulaA=\frac{1}{2} sum(x_{i} y_{i+1} -x_{i+1} y_{i}) where i=1 to N-1

A=\frac{1}{2}[ (x_{1}  y_{2} -x_{2}  y_{1})+ (x_{2}  y_{3} -x_{3}  y_{2})+(x_{3}  y_{4} -x_{4}  y_{3})+(x_{4}  y_{5} -x_{5}  y_{4})+(x_{5}  y_{6} -x_{6}  y_{5})]

A=0.5[(20×25 -25×15) +(25×32 -13×25)+(13×21 -4×32)+(4×8 -18×21)+(18×14 -25×8)

A=225.5 miles²

Now putting the value of area in Cx and Cy

C_{x} =\frac{1}{6A}[ [(x_{1}+x_{2})(x_{1}  y_{2} -x_{2}  y_{1})]+ [(x_{2}+x_{3})(x_{2}  y_{3} -x_{3}  y_{2})]+[(x_{3}+x_{4})(x_{3}  y_{4} -x_{4}  y_{3})]+[(x_{4}+x_{5})(x_{4}  y_{5} -x_{5}  y_{4})]+[(x_{5}+x_{6})(x_{5}  y_{6} -x_{6}  y_{5})]]

putting the values of x's and y's you will get

C_{x} =15.36

For Cy

C_{y} =\frac{1}{6A}[ [(y_{1}+y_{2})(x_{1}  y_{2} -x_{2}  y_{1})]+ [(y_{2}+y_{3})(x_{2}  y_{3} -x_{3}  y_{2})]+[(y_{3}+y_{4})(x_{3}  y_{4} -x_{4}  y_{3})]+[(y_{4}+y_{5})(x_{4}  y_{5} -x_{5}  y_{4})]+[(y_{5}+y_{6})(x_{5}  y_{6} -x_{6}  y_{5})]]

putting the values of x's and y's you will get

C_{y} =22.55

So coordinates for the fire station should be (15.36,22.55)

When the 2.8-kg bob is given a horizontal speed of 1.5 m/s, it begins to rotate around the horizontal circular path A. The force
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

The speed is the same at 1.5 m/s while

The work done by the force F is 0.4335 J

Explanation:

Here we have angular acceleration α = v²/r

Force = ma = 2.8 × 1.5²/r₁

and ω₁ = v₁/r₁ = ω₂ = v₁/r₂

The distance moved by the force = 600 - 300 = 300 mm = 0.3 m

If the velocity is constant

The speed is 1.5 m/s while the work done is

2.8 × 1.5²1/(effective radius) ×0.3

r₁ = effective radius

2.8*9.81 = 2.8 × 1.5²/r₁

r₁ = 0.229

The work done by the force = 2.8 × 1.5²*1/r₁ *0.3 = 0.4335 J

The typical area of a commercial airplane's passenger window is 80.0 in^2 . At an altitude of 3.00 × 104 ft above the sea level,
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

The force over the plane windows are 764 lbf in the EE unit system and 3398 N in the international unit system.

Explanation:

The net force over the window is calculated by multiplying the difference in pressure by the area of the window:

F = Δp*A

The pressure inside the plane is around 1 atm, hence the difference in pressure is:

Δp = 1atm - 0.35 atm = 0.65 atm

Expressing in the EE unit system:

Δp = 0.65 atm * 14.69 lbf/in^2 = 9.55 lbf/in^2

Replacing in the force:

F = 9.55 lbf/in^2 * 80 in^2  = 764 lbf

For the international unit system, we re-calculate the window's area and the difference in pressure:

A = 80 in^2 * (0.0254 m/in)^2 = 0.0516 m^2

Δp =  0.65 atm * 101325 Pa  = 65861 Pa  = 65861 N/m^2

Replacing in the force:

F = 65861 N/m^2  *0.0516 m^2  = 3398 N
