Answer: Highly-elliptical-earth-orbit (heo)

Explanation: Highly-elliptical-earth-orbit (heo) satellite system has unique properties

which is used by governments for spying and by scientific agencies for observing celestial bodies. It is an extremely elongated orbit that is useful for communication satellites which creates signals between a source transmitter and a receiver at different locations on earth. They are used by government for spying, scientific agencies for observing celestial bodies, for the internet and telephone communications.

Answer:

Highly elliptical satellite orbit.

Explanation:

Highly elliptical satellite orbit is used to provide coverage over any point on the globe. The HEO is not limited to equatorial orbits like the geostationary orbit and the resulting lack of high latitude and polar coverage.

As a result of its ability to provide high latitude and polar coverage, countries such as Russia which need coverage over polar and near polar areas make significant use of highly elliptical orbits, HEO. With two satellites in any orbit, they are able to provide continuous coverage.

About how much longer can the Sun continue to generate energy by nuclear reactions in its core?
QveST [7]

Answer: 5billion years

Explanation: The sun produces energy through radioactive fusion reaction.

Nebula theory states that the gaseous particles of the Earth collapsed as a result of its own gravity which continuously lead to fusion reaction for the production of nuclear energy.

The Core of the Sun is that area up to 25% from the radius of the sun,here the pressure here range up to 250million atmosphere containing mainly hydrogen which gets converted in Helium molecule. The core is the center for energy production accounting for more than 98%, nuclear energy is transmitted at about 4.3million metric tons per second.

Consider a highway composed of concrete. If the road is 4.5 km long, 30 m wide, and 0.70 m thick, what is its mass?
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Explanation:

We need to assume that the density of the concrete is about 2350 Kg/m^3. And using the dimensions of the highway we can calculate the volume of the highway.

vh=4500 * 30 * 0,70\\vh=94500 m^3\\den=m/v\\m=den*v\\m=2350*94500\\\\m=222075 ton

For a certain optical medium the speed of light varies from a low value of 1.90 × 10 8 m/s for violet light to a high value of 2
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

a. The refractive index ranges from 1.5 - 1.56

b. 18.7° for violet light and 19.5° for red light.

c. 33.7° for violet light and 35.3° for red light.

Explanation:

a. The refractive index of an object is the ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum and the speed of light in the object.

Mathematically,

n = \frac{c}{v}

The speed of violet light in the object is 1.9 * 10^8 m/s.

The speed of red light in the object is 2 * 10^8 m/s

Hence, the refractive index for violet light is:

n = \frac{3 * 10^8 }{1.9 * 10^8} \\\\n = 1.56

and for red light, it is:

n = \frac{3 * 10^8 }{2 * 10^8} \\\\n = 1.5

Hence, the refractive index ranges from 1.5 - 1.56.

b. The refractive index is also the ratio of the sine of the angle of incidence to the sine of the angle of refraction.

n = \frac{sin(i)}{sin(r)}

The angle of incidence is 30°.

The angle of refraction for violet light will be:

1.56 = \frac{sin(30)}{sin(r)}\\ \\sin(r) = \frac{sin(30)}{1.56}  = \frac{0.5}{1.56} \\\\sin(r) = 0.3205\\\\r = 18.7^o

And the angle of refraction for red light will be:

1.5 = \frac{sin(30)}{sin(r)}\\ \\sin(r) = \frac{sin(30)}{1.5}  = \frac{0.5}{1.5} \\\\sin(r) = 0.3333\\\\r = 19.5^o

The angle of refraction for red light is larger than that of violet light when the angle of incidence is 30°.

c. The angle of incidence is 60°.

The angle of refraction for violet light will be:

1.56 = \frac{sin(60)}{sin(r)}\\ \\sin(r) = \frac{sin(60)}{1.56}  = \frac{0.8660}{1.56} \\\\sin(r) = 0.5551\\\\r = 33.7^o

And the angle of refraction for red light will be:

1.5 = \frac{sin(60)}{sin(r)}\\ \\sin(r) = \frac{sin(60)}{1.5}  = \frac{0.8660}{1.5} \\\\sin(r) = 0.5773\\\\r = 35.3^o

The angle of refraction for red light is still larger than that of violet light when the angle of incidence is 60°.
