Object A has the larger speed because speed is not a vector quantity, it is scalar. This means that directionality, or in this case the sign of the velocity, doesn’t matter.
Speed = |velocity|
Object a speed =|-10|=10 m/s
Object b speed =|5|=5 m/s

Object a is the answer.

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

106417026.88435 m

Explanation:

T = Time period of the satellite = 4 days

m = Mass of the Earth =  5.972 × 10²⁴ kg

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

Time period is given by

T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{r^3}{GM}}\\\Rightarrow r=\left(\dfrac{T^2GM}{4\pi ^2}\right)^{\dfrac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow r=\left(\dfrac{(4\times 24\times 60\times 60)^2\times 6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 5.972\times 10^{24}}{4\pi ^2}\right)^{\dfrac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow r=106417026.88435\ m

The radius of the satellite's orbit is 106417026.88435 m

A tungsten wire has resistance R at 20°C. A second tungsten wire at 20°C has twice the length and half the cross-sectional area
Bad White [126]
The resistance is 4 times the resistance of the first wire. the formula is R = p*l/A with p being resistivity, l length and A area. So if you double length and half area, which botv result in more resistance, you get p*2/0.5 or 4 (p can be abandoned because it is the same. We take standard length and area as 1)
