<span>The period of a satellite in a circular orbit can be obtained by using the formula below:

P = √(4π²r³/GM)

Where: constant GM of the Moon (gravity * mass) = </span><span>4.903x10^12 m³/s²

Substituting and simplifying:

</span><span>P = 2.838x10^(-6) * √(1.738x10^6)³
</span>P = 6502 seconds, or 108.37 minutes

You drive 6.00 km at 50.0 km/h and then another 6.00kmat 900 km/h Your average speed over
Cerrena [4.2K]

Explanation:

average speed = total distance travelled / total time travelled

time to travel the first 6km: 6 / 50 = 3/25 (h)

time to travel the next 6km: 6 / 90 = 1/15 (h)

[I think there's problem in the question 'cause 900km/h sounds impossible for normal person to travel in normal condition]

The total time: 3/25 + 1/15 = 14/75 (h)

Average speed over the 12 km drive will be:

\frac{12}{ \frac{14}{75} }  =  \frac{450}{7}  = 64.3 \: km{h}^{ - 1}

Which graph accurately shows the relationship between kinetic energy and speed as speed increases?
mixer [17]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

kinetic energy (KE) is the energy possessed by moving bodies. It can be expressed as:

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

Where: m is the mass of the object, and v its speed.

For example, a stone of mass 2kg was thrown and moves with a speed of 3 m/s. Determine the kinetic energy of the stone.

Thus,

KE =  \frac{1}{2} x 2 x 3^{2}

     = 9

KE = 9.0 Joules

Assume that the speed of the stone was 4 m/s, then its KE would be:

KE =  \frac{1}{2} x 2 x 4^{2}

     = 16

KE = 16.0 Joules

Therefore, it can be observed that as speed increases, the kinetic energy increases. Thus option B is appropriate.

compare the theories that scientists proposed about the source of the sun's energy with the process of nuclear fusion in the sun
ANTONII [103]
The sun's source of energy is know as nuclear fusion (means to fuse) this process has a small nuclei atoms that join together to form a large nucleus. The result of this process is released energy. The fusion of hydrogen into helium in the sun makes a large amount of energy and this is known as the sun's energy source.
The theories that scientist proposed about the source of the sun's energy was that the sun burned fuel to generate its energy and that gravity was causing the sun to shrink slowly and have its energy released. Also both of these theories were disproved.

two porters are available to carry a long timber wood.out of them one is weak.how to do you make less load to the weak one? writ
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

Please find the answer in the explanation.

Explanation:

Given that two porters are available to carry a long timber wood.out of them one is weak. how do you make less load to the weak one?

We can make the weak one to carry less load through two different ways or means.

First, if we can locate the centre of gravity and centre of mass of the long timbre wood, the week one can carry the other end away from the center of gravity and centre of mass.

Second, the strong porter can carry the long timbre wood almost to the fulcrum and allow the weak one to support at the other end. By doing this, the weak one will only carry light portion of the load.
