Answer:

176.58 m

Explanation:

t = Time taken = 6 seconds

u = Initial velocity = 0

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s² = a

Equation of motion

s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=0\times t+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times 6^2\\\Rightarrow s=176.58\ m

The object travels 176.58 m from the cliff in 6 seconds.

Two satellites are in circular orbits around a planet that has radius 9.00x10^6 m. One satellite has mass 53.0 kg , orbital radi
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

The orbital speed of this second satellite is 5195.16 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Orbital radius of first satellite r_{1}= 8.20\times10^{7}

Orbital radius of second satellite r_{2}=7.00\times10^{7}\ m

Mass of first satellite m_{1}=53.0\ kg

Mass of second satellite m_{2}=54.0\ kg

Orbital speed of first satellite = 4800 m/s

We need to calculate the orbital speed of this second satellite

Using formula of orbital speed

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{r}}

From this relation,

v_{1}\propto\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{r}}

Now, \dfrac{v_{1}}{v_{2}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{r_{2}}{r_{1}}}

v_{2}=v_{1}\times\sqrt{\dfrac{r_{1}}{r_{2}}}

Put the value into the formula

v_{2}=4800\times\sqrt{\dfrac{ 8.20\times10^{7}}{7.00\times10^{7}}}

v_{2}=5195.16\ m/s

Hence, The orbital speed of this second satellite is 5195.16 m/s.

2. A solid plastic cube of side 0.2 m is submerged in a liquid of density 0.8 hgm calculate the
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

vpg = 0.064 N

Explanation:

Upthrust = Volume of fluid displaced

upthrust liquid on the cube g=10ms−2

vpg =0.2 x 0.2 x 0.2 x0.8 x 10= 0.064N

vpg = 0.064 N

hope it helps.

An asteroid with a mass of 5.0 x 105 kg collides with the Earth and slides horizontally along the ground without bouncing (not a
V125BC [204]
The strength of the friction doesn't matter. Neither does the distance or the time the asteroid takes to stop. All that matters is that the asteroid has

1/2 (mass) (speed squared)

of kinetic energy when it lands, and zero when it stops.
So

1/2 (mass) (original speed squared)

is the energy it loses to friction in order to come to rest.

Is a paper clip a conducted or insulator
Leni [432]
<span>So we want to know is a paper clip a conductor or an insulator. A conductor is a material that doesn't resist very much to the flow of electric current. An insulator is totally oposite of a conductor, it gives a lot of resistane to the flow of electric current. Metals are mostly conductors while rubber, plastics are insulators. Since paper clips are mostly made out of metals, they are a conductor. </span>
