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

A ball is thrown straight down with a speed of Va2.00 from a building 40.00 meters high. How much S time passes before the ball
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

Option C is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Considering vertical motion of ball:-

Initial velocity, u =  2 m/s

Acceleration , a = 9.81 m/s²

Displacement, s = 40 m

We have equation of motion s= ut + 0.5 at²

Substituting

   s= ut + 0.5 at²

    40 = 2 x t + 0.5 x 9.81 x t²

   4.9t²  + 2t - 40 = 0

   t = 2.66 s   or t = -3.06 s

So, time is 2.66 s.

Option C is the correct answer.

A balloon-powered car rolls across the floor at a speed of 0.711 m/s. How long does it take to cover 8.25 m?
devlian [24]

Answer:

Time = 11.60 seconds.

Explanation:

Speed can be defined as distance covered per unit time. Speed is a scalar quantity and as such it has magnitude but no direction.

Mathematically, speed is given by the equation;

Speed = \frac{distance}{time}

Given the following data;

Speed = 0.711m/s

Distance = 8.25m

To find the time;

Making time the subject of formula, we have;

Time = \frac{distance}{speed}

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Time = \frac{8.25}{0.711}

Time = 11.60 secs.
