(a) What is
the potential energy: PE = -G * M * m/r
Where: M is the mass of the earth which is 5.98 * 10^24 kg.
m is the mass of the satellite.
r is the space from the center of the earth to the satellite
To conclude this distance add the radius of the earth to the
altitude. Radius of the earth is 6.38 * 10^6 meters.
r = 6.38 * 10^6 + 2.02 * 10^6 = 8.38 * 10^6
PE = 6.67 * 10^-11 * 5.98 * 10^24 * 99/8.38 * 10^6 =
4.71240095 * 10^9 J
(b) magnitude of the gravitational force exerted by the
Earth
Fg = G * M * m/r^2
Fg = 6.67 * 10^-11 * 5.98 * 10^24 * 99/(8.38 * 10^6)^2 =
562.3078873 N
(c) There are no other forces that the satellite exert on
the Earth. So therefore, it is 0.
Answer:
A circuit which has a battery in it will not allow electricity to flow through it. A device called a switch can be used to complete a circuit so that other devices can be switched on or off.

Answer:
Time - taken = 2.5 s
deceleration= -8 m/s²
Solution:
Given:
speed, v = 8 m/s
distance, d = 20m
To Find:
deacceleration = ?
As we know speed is defined as
v = d/t
plugging in the values
t = 20/ 8
t = 2.5s
Now from deceleration formula
a = - v/ t
a = - 20/ 2.5
a = - 8 m/s²
Thus, the time taken and acceleration is 2.5 s and -8 m/s²
respectively.
