Answer:

c) At a distance greater than r

Explanation:

If G= Gravitational constant

M= Mass of earth

r= distance from earth center

then orbital speed is ;

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

==> v²=GM/r

If speed of first satellite = V₁

==> V₁² = GM/r

==> r = GM/V₁²

If speed of second satellite say V₂ is less than V₁ then square of V₂ will be less than square of V₁ , and hence GM will be divided by less number in case of second satellite, and hence will give greater value of r as compared to first satellite.

So our answer is c

Answer:

Cu 8.92

Explanation:

The formula for density is mass/volume. If you were to divide 62.44 by 7, you would get 8.92. Since copper is the only metal in this table that has a density of 8.92, that is the answer.

The magnitudes of the forces that the ropes must exert on the knot connecting are :

  • F₁ = 118 N
  • F₂ = 89.21 N
  • F₃ = 57.28 N

<u>Given data :</u>

Mass ( M ) = 12 kg

∅₂ = 63°

∅₃ = 45°

<h3>Determine the magnitudes of the forces exerted by the ropes on the connecting knot</h3><h3 />

a) Force exerted by the first rope = weight of rope

∴  F₁ = mg

     = 12 * 9.81 ≈  118 kg

<u>b) Force exerted by the second rope </u>

applying equilibrium condition of force in the vertical direction

F₂ sin∅₂ + F₃ sin∅₃ - mg = 0  ---- ( 1 )

where: F₃ = ( F₂ cos∅₂ / cos∅₃ ) --- ( 2 )  applying equilibrium condition of force in the horizontal direction

Back to equation ( 1 )

F₂ =  [ ( mg / cos∅₂ ) / tan∅₂ + tan∅₃ ]

   = [ ( 118 / cos 63° ) / ( tan 63° + tan 45° ) ]

   = 89.21 N

<u />

<u>C ) </u><u>Force </u><u>exerted by the</u><u> third rope </u>

Applying equation ( 2 )

F₃ = ( F₂ cos∅₂ / cos∅₃ )

    = ( 89.21 * cos 63 / cos 45 )

    = 57.28 N

Hence we can conclude that The magnitudes of the forces that the ropes must exert on the knot connecting are :

F₁ = 118 N, F₂ = 89.21 N, F₃ = 57.28 N
