When in orbit, a satellite such as the space shuttle s <span>in non-accelerated motion. </span>
JulijaS [17]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: B

Explanation:

When in orbit, a satellite is hold in position thanks to, between others, the earth's gravity. So the C option is discarded.

A projectile is an object thrown by the exertion of some force, like a bullet or a cannonball.

A satellite is placed in some orbit, so he can rotate the earth. The movement of the satellite is non-accelerated motion, because the only forces that act on the satellite are the forces that hold him in orbit.

Which of the following statements is true of chords? Select all that apply.
tankabanditka [31]
All of those are true, except the one about the radius. 

Both ends of a chord have to be on the circle, but one end

A conveyer belt moves a 40 kg at a velocity of 2/ms what is the kinetic energy of the box while it is on the conveyor belt
CaHeK987 [17]
KE = (1/2)·(mass)·(speed)²

It doesn't matter whether the object is in a car, on a boat, 
falling, on a conveyor belt, or being carried by ants.

KE = (1/2)·(40 kg)·(2 m/s)²

KE = (20 kg)·(4 m²/s²)

KE = 80 kg-m²/s²

KE = 80 Joules

Which of the following is a FALSE statement about acceleration? A. Acceleration can be zero, positive, or negative. B. An object
olchik [2.2K]
<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

C. An object can have acceleration with negative velocity.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • Acceleration is a measure of the change in velocity over time. The change in velocity is measured in meter per second (m/s), and time interval is measured in second (s).
  • Therefore, acceleration measures the change in meters per second every second [(m/s)/s], namely meters per second per second or meters per second squared (m/s2).
  • If an object has zero acceleration, its velocity doesn’t have to be zero. Acceleration is a measure of the change in velocity over time. Zero acceleration means there is no change in velocity over time, namely constant velocity.

Before we can use parallax to measure the distance to a nearby star, we first need to know
Fittoniya [83]
<span>Before we can use parallax to measure the distance to a nearby star, we first need to know the Earth-Sun distance.
Not before we find out what the distance between our planet and the Sun is can we use the parallax to measure the distance to a nearby star.
