A satellite of mass m is in a circular orbit of radius R2 around a spherical planet of radius R1 made of a material with density
Anit [1.1K]

Answer: The gravitational force Fg exerted on the orbit by the planet is Fg = G 4/3πr3rhom/ (R1 + d+ R2)^2

Explanation:

Gravitational Force Fg = GMm/r2----1

Where G is gravitational constant

M Mass of the planet, m mass of the orbit and r is the distance between the masses.

Since the circular orbit move around the planet, it means they do not touch each other.

The distance between two points on the circumference of the two massesb is given by d, while the distance from the radius of each mass to the circumferences are R1 and R2 from the question.

Total distance r= (R1 + d + R2)^2---2

Recall, density rho =

Mass M/Volume V

Hence, mass of planet = rho × V

But volume of a sphere is 4/3πr3

Therefore,

Mass M of planet = rho × 4/3πr3

=4/3πr3rho in kg

From equation 1 and 2

Fg = G 4/3πr3rhom/ (R1 + d+ R2)^2

Which one of the following statements is true concerning the magnitude of the electric field at a point in space? It is a measur
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

It is a measure of the electric force per unit charge on a test charge.

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electric field is defined as the force per charge on the test charge.

Since we define electric field as the force per charge, it will have the units of  force divided by the unit of charge. This implies that the SI unit of electric field is given as Newton/Coulomb (N/C).

A lighthouse is located on a small island, 3 km away from the nearest point on a straight shoreline, and its light makes four re
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

The beam of light is moving at the peed of:

\frac{dy}{dt} = \frac{80\pi}{3} km/min

Given:

Distance from the isalnd, d = 3 km

No. of revolutions per minute, n = 4

Solution:

Angular velocity, \omega = \frac{d\theta'}{dt} = 2\pi n = 2\pi \times 4 = 8\pi    (1)

Now, in the right angle in the given fig.:

tan\theta' = \frac{y}{3}

Now, differentiating both the sides w.r.t t:

\frac{dtan\theta'}{dt} = \frac{dy}{3dt}

Applying chain rule:

\frac{dtan\theta'}{d\theta'}.\frac{d\theta'}{dt} = \frac{dy}{3dt}

sec^{2}\theta'\frac{d\theta'}{dt} = \frac{dy}{3dt} = (1 + tan^{2}\theta')\frac{d\theta'}{dt}

Now, using tan\theta = \frac{1}{m} and y = 1 in the above eqn, we get:

(1 + (\frac{1}{3})^{2})\frac{d\theta'}{dt} = \frac{dy}{3dt}

Also, using eqn (1),

8\pi\frac{10}{9})\theta' = \frac{dy}{3dt}

\frac{dy}{dt} = \frac{80\pi}{3}
