A rock is thrown straight upward off the edge of a balcony that is 5 m above the ground. The rock rises 10 m, then falls all the

way down to the ground below the balcony. What is the rock's displacement?

Displacement = distance and direction from the start-point
to the end-point, regardless of the route followed on the way.

From the throw to the 'plop', the displacement is 5 meters down.

A tennis ball rolls off the edge of a table. the table is 0.55m tall and the tennis ball lands 0.12m away from the table.
k0ka [10]

Answer:

v = 0.363 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

The table is 0.55m tall and the tennis ball lands 0.12m away from the table.

Here, u = 0 (at rest) for initial vertical velocity as it rolls off the edge of a table.

Let t is the time to fall from the vertical height. So,

h=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\\t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2h}{g}} \\\\t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 0.55}{9.8}} \\\\t=0.33\ s

It can be assumed to find the initial horizontal velocity of the tennis ball. It can be given by :

v_x=\dfrac{x}{t}\\\\v_x=\dfrac{0.12}{0.33}\\\\v_x=0.363\ m/s

Hence, the initial horizontal velocity is 0.363 m/s.

A satellite that goes around the earth once every 24 hours (86,400 s) is called a geosynchronous satellite. If a geosynchronous
Olegator [25]

Answer:

42244138.951 m

Explanation:

G = Gravitational constant = 6.667 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

r = Radius of orbit from center of earth

M = Mass of Earth = 5.98 × 10²⁴ kg

m = Mass of Satellite

The satellite revolves around the Earth at a constant speed

Speed = Distance / Time

The distance is the perimeter of the orbit

v=\frac{2\pi \times r}{24\times 3600}

The Centripetal force of the satellite is balanced by the universal gravitational force

m\frac{v^2}{r}=\frac{GMm}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{\left(\frac{2\pi \times r}{24\times 3600}\right)^2}{r}=\frac{6.667\times 10^{-11}\times 5.98\times 10^{24}}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow \left(\frac{2\pi \times r}{24\times 3600}\right)^2=6.667\times 10^{-11}\times 5.98\times 10^{24}\\\Rightarrow r^3=\frac{6.667\times 10^{-11}\times 5.98\times 10^{24}\times (24\times 3600)^2}{(2\pi)^2}\\\Rightarrow r=\left(\frac{6.667\times 10^{-11}\times 5.98\times 10^{24}\times (24\times 3600)^2}{(2\pi)^2}\right)^{\frac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow r=42244138.951\ m

The radius as measured from the center of the Earth) of the orbit of a geosynchronous satellite that circles the earth is 42244138.951 m
