We will make the comparison between each of the sizes against the known wavelengths.

In the case of the <em>hydrogen atom</em>, we know that this is equivalent to 10^{-10} m on average, which corresponds to the wavelength corresponding to X-rays.

In the case of the <em>Virus</em> we know that it is oscillating in a size of 30nm to 200 nm, so the size of the virus is equivalent to the range of the wavelength of an ultraviolet ray.

In the case of <em>height</em>, it fluctuates in a person around 10 ^ 0 to 10 ^ 1 m, which falls to the wavelength of a radio wave.

During oxidation-reduction reactions, a material loses electrons to the oxidizer, which has a positive charge. Which power sourc
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

D. Battery

During the oxidation-reduction(redox) reaction, there is always flow of electrons from one point to another. The electrons are then converted to power through the battery which converts chemical energy to electrical energy. If there is zero flow of electrons then there will also be zero power.

A 4000 kg satellite is placed 2.60 x 10^6 m above the surface of the Earth.
mash [69]

a) The acceleration of gravity is 4.96 m/s^2

b) The critical velocity is 6668 m/s (24,006 km/h)

c) The period of the orbit is 8452 s

d) The satellite completes 10.2 orbits per day

e) The escape velocity of the satellite is 9430 m/s

f) The escape velocity of the rocket is 11,191 m/s

Explanation:

a)

The acceleration of gravity for an object near a planet is given by

g=\frac{GM}{(R+h)^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the planet

R is the radius of the planet

h is the height above the surface

In this problem,

M=5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg (mass of the Earth)

R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m (Earth's radius)

h=2.60\cdot 10^6 m (altitude of the satellite)

Substituting,

g=\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24}}{(6.37\cdot 10^6 + 2.60\cdot 10^6)^2}=4.96 m/s^2

b)

The critical velocity for a satellite orbiting around a planet is given by

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

where we have again:

M=5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg (mass of the Earth)

R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m (Earth's radius)

h=2.60\cdot 10^6 m (altitude of the satellite)

Substituting,

v=\sqrt{\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24}}{(6.37\cdot 10^6 + 2.60\cdot 10^6)}}=6668 m/s

Converting into km/h,

v=6668 m/s \cdot \frac{3600 s/h}{1000 m/km}=24,006 km/h

c)

The period of the orbit is given by the circumference of the orbit divided by the velocity:

T=\frac{2\pi (R+h)}{v}

where

R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m

h=2.60\cdot 10^6 m

v = 6668 m/s

Substituting,

T=\frac{2\pi (6.37\cdot 10^6 + 2.60\cdot 10^6)}{6668}=8452 s

d)

One day consists of:

t = 24 \frac{hours}{day} \cdot 60 \frac{min}{hours} \cdot 60 \frac{s}{min}=86400 s

While the period of the orbit is

T = 8452 s

So, the number of orbits completed by the satellite in one day is

n=\frac{t}{T}=\frac{86400}{8452}=10.2

e)

The escape velocity for an object in the gravitational field of a planet is given by

v=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R+h}}

where here we have:

M=5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg

R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m

h=2.60\cdot 10^6 m

Substituting, we find

v=\sqrt{\frac{2(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24}}{(6.37\cdot 10^6 + 2.60\cdot 10^6)}}=9430 m/s

f)

We can apply again the formula to find the escape velocity for the rocket:

v=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R+h}}

Where this time we have:

M=5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg

R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m

h=0, because the rocket is located at the Earth's surface, so its altitude is zero.

And substituting,

v=\sqrt{\frac{2(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24}}{(6.37\cdot 10^6)}}=11,191 m/s
