If the book is placed in the middle, the forces acting on <em>p</em> and <em>q</em> is 5N. If the book is moved 50 cm from <em>q</em>, the forces at <em>p</em> and <em>q</em> can be solved by doing a moment balance

<u>With </u><u><em>p</em></u><u> as the pivot;</u>

Fq (2 m) = 10 N (0.5 m)

Fq = 2.5 N

Fp = 10 N - 2.5 N = 7.5 N

Two satellites are orbiting earth at different altitudes. Which satellite orbits at a higher speed v around earth?
aniked [119]

Answer:

Low satellite has high orbital velocity

Explanation:

let v be the orbital speed of the satellite orbiting at a height h is given by

v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{R+h}}

where, M be the mass of planet, r be the radius of planet and h be the height of planet from the surface of planet.

here we observe that more be the height lesser be the orbital velocity.

So, a satellite which is at low height has high orbital velocity.

What is the gravitational field strength of a 5 kg object that weighs 25 N?
solniwko [45]

Answer:

ExplanaThis is a way of measuring how much gravity there is. The formula is: weight/mass = gravitational field strength.

Gravitational field strength = Weight/mass unit is N/kg

Weight = mass x gravitational field strength unit is N

On Earth the gravitational field strength is 10 N/kg. Other planets have different gravitational field strengths. The Moon has a gravitational field strength of 1.6 N/kg. You might have seen films of astronauts leaping high on the moon.

Here on Earth, if I jump I am pulled back to ground by gravity. What is my weight? My mass is 80kg and if we multiply by gravitational field strength (10N/kg) - my weight is 800N. Now if I go to the moon, my mass will be the same, 80kg. We multiply that by the moon's gravitational field strength, which is 1.6 N/ kg. That means my weight on the moon is 128N. So I have different weights on the Earth and on the Moon. That's why astronauts can jump high into the air on the moon - they're lighter up there.

Jupiter is a very large planet with strong gravitational field strength of 25 N/ kg. My body is 80kg. If I go to Jupiter my weight is going to be 25 x 80 = 2,000 N. That means I wouldn't be able to get off the ground or stand up straight! I would probably be lying down all the time there. So weight varies depending on which planet you are on. You can find out more yourself by looking up tables of weight on different planets.tion:
