Explanation:

Distance = (intial speed)X(Time) + 1/2(acceleration)X(Time) [Third equation of motion]

As initial speed is zero, therefore;

Distance = 1/2(acceleration)X(Time)

              = 1/2 (6 X 15)

              = 1/2 (90)

              = 45 meters

Hence, the object traveled 45 meters.

How is energy measured?​
stepladder [879]

Because a Btu is so small, energy is usually measured in millions of Btus. 1 Btu = the amount of energy required to increase the temperature of one pound of water (which is equivalent to one pint) by one degree Fahrenheit. This is roughly the heat produced from burning one match.

Two satellites, X and Y, are orbiting Earth. Satellite X is 1.2 × 106 m from Earth, and Satellite Y is 1.9 × 105 m from Earth. W
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer: Satellite X has a greater period and a slower tangential speed than Satellite Y

Explanation:

According to Kepler’s Third Law of Planetary motion “The square of the orbital period of a planet is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis (size) of its orbit”.

T^{2}=\frac{4\pi^{2}}{GM}r^{3}    (1)

Where;

G=6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}} is the Gravitational Constant

M=5.972(10)^{24}kg is the mass of the Earth

r  is the semimajor axis of the orbit each satellite describes around Earth (assuming it is a circular orbit, the semimajor axis is equal to the radius of the orbit)

So for satellite X, the orbital period T_{X} is:

T_{X}^{2}=\frac{4\pi^{2}}{GM}r_{X}^{3}    (2)

Where r_{X}=1.2(10)^{6}m

T_{X}^{2}=\frac{4\pi^{2}}{(6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}})(5.972(10)^{24}kg)}(1.2(10)^{6}m)^{3}    (3)

T_{X}=413.712 s    (4)

For satellite Y, the orbital period T_{Y} is:

T_{Y}^{2}=\frac{4\pi^{2}}{GM}r_{Y}^{3}    (5)

Where r_{Y}=1.9(10)^{5}m

T_{Y}^{2}=\frac{4\pi^{2}}{(6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}})(5.972(10)^{24}kg)}(1.9(10)^{5}m)^{3}    (6)

T_{Y}=26.064 s    (7)

This means T_{X}>T_{Y}

Now let's calculate the tangential speed for both satellites:

<u>For Satellite X:</u>

V_{X}=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r_{X}}} (8)

V_{X}=\sqrt{\frac{(6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}})(5.972(10)^{24}kg)}{1.2(10)^{6}m}}

V_{X}=18224.783 m/s (9)

<u>For Satellite Y:</u>

V_{Y}=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r_{Y}}} (10)

V_{Y}=\sqrt{\frac{(6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}})(5.972(10)^{24}kg)}{1.9(10)^{5}m}}

V_{Y}= 45801.13 m/s (11)

This means V_{Y}>V_{X}

Therefore:

Satellite X has a greater period and a slower tangential speed than Satellite Y
