Answer:

The International Space Station move at 7.22 km/s.

Explanation:

Orbital speed of satellite is given by  v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}, where G is gravitational constant, M is mass of Earth and r is the distance to satellite from centre of Earth.

r = R + h = 6350 + 1400 = 7750 km = 7.75 x 10⁶ m

G = 6.673 x 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

M = 5.98 x 10²⁴ kg

Substituting

              v=\sqrt{\frac{6.673\times 10^{-11}\times 5.98\times 10^{24}}{7.75\times 10^6}}=7223.86m/s=7.22km/s

  The International Space Station move at 7.22 km/s.

When the height of the cylinder increased by a factor of 5from 100 m to 500 m, what happened to the cylinder's
Lesechka [4]

Answer: It increased by a factor of 5

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy P is given by the following formula:

P=mgh

Where:

m is the mass of the cylinder (assumed as constant)

g is the acceleration due gravity (assumed as constant)

h is the height of the cylinder

As we can see, P is directly proportional to h. Hence, if h increases by a factor of 5 P increases by a factor of 5, as well.

In atoms with only one shell how many electrons are requires for stability?
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

In general, atoms are most stable, least reactive, when their outermost electron shell is full. Most of the elements important in biology need eight electrons in their outermost shell in order to be stable, and this rule of thumb is known as the octet rule.
