Answer:

Speed Unchanged.

Explanation:

As work is defined as a product of force over a distance. If the distance in altitude is constant = 500km, there's 0 change in distance and force, no work would be done by the gravitational force.

Since potential energy of the satellite is unchanged, unless there's additional internal energy source, the kinetic energy would remain unchanged, so would its speed.

Se aplican dos fuerzas concurrentes a un objeto de 4N a la derecha y 5N a la izquierda. ¿Hacia donde se movió y con cuanta fuerz

Maksim231197 [3]

The forces move strongly towards the left by 1N

Given the following

Force towards the right = 4N

Force towards the left = 5N

Note that the force acting towards the left is negative, hence the force acting towards the left is -5N

Take the sum of force

Resultant force = -5N + 4N

Resultant force = -1N

This shows that the forces move strongly towards the left by 1N

The sound from a single source can reach point O by two different paths. One path is 20.0 m long and the second path is 21.0 m l

aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

minimum frequency = 170 Hz

Explanation:

given data

One path long = 20 m

second path long = 21 m

speed of sound = 340 m/s

solution

we get here destructive phase that is path difference of minimum $\frac{\lambda}{2}$

here λ is the wavelength of the wave

so path difference will be

21 - 20 = $\frac{\lambda}{2}$

λ = 2 m

and

velocity that is express as

velocity = frequency × wavelength .............1

frequency = $\frac{340}{2}$

minimum frequency = 170 Hz

Why does a projectile fired along a horizontal not follow a straight path?

Stella [2.4K]

Answer: A projectile which is fired horizontally is being constantly acted upon by acceleration due to gravity, acting vertically downwards. Hence, it does not follow a straight line path. Also Why a projectile fixed along the horizontal not follow a straight line path? Because the projectile fired horizontally is constantly acts upon by acceleration due to gravity acting vertically downwards.
