A 100-kg spacecraft is in a circular orbit about Earth at a height h = 2RE .

maria [59]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the conservation of the Gravitational Force and the centripetal force by equilibrium,

$F_g = F_c$

$\frac{GmM}{r^2} = \frac{mv^2}{r}$

Where,

m = Mass of spacecraft

M = Mass of Earth

r = Radius (Orbit)

G = Gravitational Universal Music

v = Velocity

Re-arrange to find the velocity

$\frac{GM}{r^2} = \frac{v^2}{r}$

$\frac{GM}{r} = v^2$

$v = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}$

PART A ) The radius of the spacecraft's orbit is 2 times the radius of the earth, that is, considering the center of the earth, the spacecraft is 3 times at that distance. Replacing then,

$v = \sqrt{\frac{(6.67*10^{-11})(5.97*10^{24})}{3*(6.371*10^6)}}$

$v = 4564.42m/s$

From the speed it is possible to use find the formula, so

$T = \frac{2\pi r}{v}$

$T = \frac{2\pi (6.371*10^6)}{4564.42}$

$T = 8770.05s\approx 146min\approx 2.4hour$

Therefore the orbital period of the spacecraft is 2 hours and 24 minutes.

PART B) To find the kinetic energy we simply apply the definition of kinetic energy on the ship, which is

$KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

$KE = \frac{1}{2} (100)(4564.42)^2$

$KE = 1.0416*10^9J$

Therefore the kinetic energy of the Spacecraft is 1.04 Gigajules.

A plane rises from take-off and flies at an angle of 5 degrees5° with the horizontal runway. When it has gained 800800 feet, f

dedylja [7]

Answer:

$distance=9188149.567feet$

Explanation:

Given Data

Angle α=5°

height h=800800 feet

To find

Distance r

Solution

As we Know that

$Sin\alpha =(\frac{Perpendicular}{hypotenuse} )\\Sin\alpha =\frac{h}{r}\\ r=\frac{h}{Sin\alpha}\\ r=\frac{800800feet}{Sin(5^{o} )}\\ r=9188149.567feet$

A park ranger driving on a back country road suddenly sees a deer in his headlights 20

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

17.1

Explanation:

The distance ahead, of the deer when it is sighted by the park ranger, d = 20 m

The initial speed with which the ranger was driving, u = 11.4 m/s

The acceleration rate with which the ranger slows down, a = (-)3.80 m/s² (For a vehicle slowing down, the acceleration is negative)

The distance required for the ranger to come to rest, s = Required

The kinematic equation of motion that can be used to find the distance the ranger's vehicle travels before coming to rest (the distance 's'), is given as follows;

v² = u² + 2·a·s

∴ s = (v² - u²)/(2·a)

Where;

v = The final velocity = 0 m/s (the vehicle comes to rest (stops))

Plugging in the values for 'v', 'u', and 'a', gives;

s = (0² - 11.4²)/(2 × -3.8) = 17.1

The distance the required for the ranger's vehicle to com to rest, s = 17.1 (meters).
