A satellite in geostationary orbit is used to transmit data via electromagnetic radiation. The satellite is at a height of 35,00

0 km above the surface of the earth, and we assume it has an isotropic power output of 1 kW (although, in practice, satellite antennas transmit signals that are less powerful but more directional).Reception devices pick up the variation in the electric field vector of the electromagnetic wave sent out by the satellite. Given the satellite specifications listed in the problem introduction, what is the amplitude E0 of the electric field vector of the satellite broadcast as measured at the surface of the earth? Use ϵ0=8.85×10^−12C/(V⋅m) for the permittivity of space and c=3.00×10^8m/s for the speed of light.

Answer:

6.99535\times 10^{-6}\ V/m

Explanation:

P = Power Output = 1000 W

r = Radius = 35000000 m

\epsilon_0 = Permittivity of free space = 8.85\times 10^{-12}\ F/m

c = Speed of light = 3\times 10^8\ m/s

Intensity of Electric radiation is given by

I=\dfrac{P}{A}\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{P}{4\pi r^2}\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{1000}{4\pi\times 35000000^2}\ W/m^2

Intensity of Electric radiation is given by

I=\dfrac{1}{2}c\epsilon_0E_0\\\Rightarrow E_0=\sqrt{\dfrac{2I}{c\epsilon_0}}\\\Rightarrow E_0=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times \dfrac{1000}{4\pi\times 35000000^2}}{3\times 10^8\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}}}\\\Rightarrow E_0=6.99535\times 10^{-6}\ V/m

The amplitude of the electric field vector is 6.99535\times 10^{-6}\ V/m

When the motion of one or both of the particles is at an angle to the line of impact, the impact is said to be ________
Nana76 [90]

Answer: Oblique impact

Explanation:

When the motion of one or both of the particles is at an angle to the line of impact, the impact is said to be oblique impact.

On the other hand, when the directions of motion of the two colliding particles are moving along a line of impact, then it's refered to as central impact.

A small meteorite with mass of 1 g strikes the outer wall of a communication satellite with a speed of 2Okm/s (relative to the s
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

The energy coverted to heat is 200 kilojoules.

Explanation:

GIven the absence of external forces exerted both on the small meteorite and on the communication satellite, the Principle of Linear Momentum is considered and let suppose that collision is completely inelastic and that satellite is initially at rest. Hence, the expression for the satellite-meteorite system:

m_{M}\cdot v_{M} + m_{S}\cdot v_{S} = (m_{M}+m_{S})\cdot v

Where:

m_{M}, m_{S} - Masses of the small meteorite and the communication satellite, measured in kilograms.

v_{M}, v_{S} - Speeds of the small meteorite and the communication satellite, measured in meters per second.

v - Final speed of the satellite-meteorite system, measured in meters per second.

The final speed of the satellite-meteorite system is cleared:

v = \frac{m_{M}\cdot v_{M}+m_{S}\cdot v_{S}}{m_{M}+m_{S}}

If m_{M} = 1\times 10^{-3}\,kg, m_{S} = 200\,kg, v_{M} = 20000\,\frac{m}{s} and v_{S} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}, the final speed is now calculated:

v = \frac{(1\times 10^{-3}\,kg)\cdot \left(20000\,\frac{m}{s} \right)+(200\,kg)\cdot \left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)}{1\times 10^{-3}\,kg+200\,kg}

v = 0.1\,\frac{m}{s}

Which means that the new system remains stationary and all mechanical energy from meteorite is dissipated in the form of heat. According to the Principle of Energy Conservation and the Work-Energy Theorem, the change in the kinetic energy is equal to the dissipated energy in the form of heat:

K_{S} + K_{M} - K - Q_{disp} = 0

Q_{disp} = K_{S}+K_{M}-K

Where:

K_{S}, K_{M} - Initial translational kinetic energies of the communication satellite and small meteorite, measured in joules.

K - Kinetic energy of the satellite-meteorite system, measured in joules.

Q_{disp} - Dissipated heat, measured in joules.

The previous expression is expanded by using the definition for the translational kinetic energy:

Q_{disp} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot [m_{M}\cdot v_{M}^{2}+m_{S}\cdot v_{S}^{2}-(m_{M}+m_{S})\cdot v^{2}]

Given that m_{M} = 1\times 10^{-3}\,kg, m_{S} = 200\,kg, v_{M} = 20000\,\frac{m}{s}, v_{S} = 0\,\frac{m}{s} and v = 0.1\,\frac{m}{s}, the dissipated heat is:

Q_{disp} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot \left[(1\times 10^{-3}\,kg)\cdot \left(20000\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}+(200\,kg)\cdot \left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}-(200.001\,kg)\cdot \left(0.001\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}\right]Q_{disp} = 200000\,J

Q_{disp} = 200\,kJ

The energy coverted to heat is 200 kilojoules.

Calculate the average orbital speed of Ceres in
marin [14]
] Ceres is composed of rock and ice and is estimated to comprise approximately one third of the mass of the entire asteroid belt. Ceres is the only object in the asteroid belt known to be rounded by its own gravity (though detailed analysis was required to exclude 4 Vesta). From Earth, the apparent magnitude of Ceres ranges from 6.7 to 9.3, peaking once every 15 to 16 months,[21]hence even at its brightest it is too dim to be seen with the naked eye except under extremely dark skies.

Help please help!! Pleaseee
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

The coastal regions are affected by abrasion due to large volumes of water and increased winds. This can become more severe especially with storms that hit coastal regions.

Explanation:

Abrasion is physical weathering caused by water, wind and gravity.  Hope it worked, I love geography! Can you mark mine as the brainliest please! Also can you give me a thanks and a 5 star vote!
