Answer:
424088766.068 m
Explanation:
Radius of the circular orbit that the satellite is 2.6 Earth radii (r) = 2.6 R
R = Radius of earth = 6371000 m (mean radius)
In order to find the distance that the satellite travels in 5.89 hours to complete one complete revolution is the circumference of the circular orbit
Circumference of a circle = 2×π×r
⇒Distance travelled in 5.89 hours = 2×π×2.6 R
⇒Distance travelled in 5.89 hours = 2×π×2.6×6371000
⇒Distance travelled in 5.89 hours = 104078451.3393m
Distance travelled in 1 hour = 104078451.3393/5.89 = 17670365.252 m
∴ Distance travelled in 24 hours = 17670365.252×24 = 424088766.068 m
Answer:
The answer depends on what object you are dropping. Are you dropping a balloon or a car? (I'm joking 'bout that one.) If the mass of the object is very little, then it might drop slower. If the mass is bigger, then it might drop faster.
Good luck!
Explanation:
The gravitational force between a mass and the Earth is the object'sweight. Mass is considered a measure of an object's inertia, and its weight is the force exerted on the object in a gravitational field. On the surface of the Earth, the two forces are related by the acceleration due to gravity: Fg = mg.
Hoped this helped!
