The popular GPS devices that people use to find directions while driving use "Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS)".
<u>Explanation:</u>
The umbrella term for all global satellite tracking systems is GNSS i.e Global Satellite Navigation System. This involves satellite constellations circulating over the surface of the earth and continuous signal transmission that allow users to evaluate their location.
A satellite array of 18–30 medium Earth Orbit (MEO) satellites distributed across several orbital planes typically achieves greater coverage for each network. The specific systems differ, but use > 50 ° orbital inclinations and approximately twelve hours orbital cycles.
Answer:
6.57 m/s
Explanation:
First use Hook's Law to determine the F the compressed spring acts on the mass. Hook's Law F=kx; F=force, k=stiffnes of spring (or spring constant), x=displacement
F=kx; F=180(.3) = 54 N
Next from Newton's second law find the acceleration of the mass.
Newton's .2nd law F=ma; a=F/m ; a=54/.75 = 72m/s²
Now use the kinematic equation for velocity (or speed)
v₂²= v₀² + 2a(x₂-x₀); v₂=final velocity; v₀=initial velocity; a=acceleration; x₂=final displacement; x₀=initial displacment.
v₀=0, since the mass is at rest before we release it
a=72 m/s² (from above)
x₀=0 as the start position already compressed
x₂=0.3m (this puts the spring back to it's natural length)
v₂²= 0 + 2(72)(0.3) = 43.2 m²/s²
v₂=
= 6.57 m/s
Answer:
0.799 m/s if air resistance is negligible.
Explanation:
For how long is the ball in the air?
Acceleration is constant. The change in the ball's height
depends on the square of the time:
,
where
is the change in the ball's height.
is the acceleration due to gravity.
is the time for which the ball is in the air.
is the initial vertical velocity of the ball.
- The height of the ball decreases, so this value should be the opposite of the height of the table relative to the ground.
. - Gravity pulls objects toward the earth, so
is also negative.
near the surface of the earth. - Assume that the table is flat. The vertical velocity of the ball will be zero until it falls off the edge. As a result,
.
Solve for

What's the initial horizontal velocity of the ball?
- Horizontal displacement of the ball:
; - Time taken:

Assume that air resistance is negligible. Only gravity is acting on the ball when it falls from the tabletop. The horizontal velocity of the ball will not change while the ball is in the air. In other words, the ball will move away from the table at the same speed at which it rolls towards the edge.
.
Both values from the question come with 3 significant figures. Keep more significant figures than that during the calculation and round the final result to the same number of significant figures.
