When the launch velocity is a bit less than the escape velocity, the satellite with time will find itself back to earth and when the speed is far beyond the escape velocity, the satellite with time, be lost in space.
The velocity of escape from the less massive Moon is about 2.4 km per second at its surface. ... A planet (or satellite) cannot long retain an atmosphere if the planet's escape velocity is low enough to be near the average velocity of the gas molecules making up the atmosphere.
Answer:
The actual elevation angle is 12.87 degrees
Explanation:
In the attachment you can clearly see the situation. The angle of elevation as seen for the scuba diver is shown in magenta, we conclude that
.
Using Snell's Law we can write:

,
Let's approximate the index of refraction of the air (medium 1 in the picture) to 1.
We thus have:

. Calling
the actual angle of elevation, we get from the picture that
The latent heat of fusion refers to the solid to liquid or liquid to solid states.
Answer: Option C
<u>Explanation:
</u>
It is known that the inter conversion process from the states of solid to liquid is referred as fusion. So, for these conversions, the external energy in the heat form should be supplied to solid.
This external energy should be greater than the latent heat of solid in order to successfully break the bonds to form liquid. So the change in the enthalpy of the reaction while conversion from solids to liquids are termed as latent heats of fusion.
Even the inter-conversion from liquid to solid state will undergo change in enthalpy where the heat will be released and that is termed as latent heats of solidification. It is found that latent heat of solidification is equal in magnitude but opposite in direction with the latent heats of fusion.
Answer:
B. X-rays
Explanation:
From the given choices, x-rays will have the highest energy of the given waves.
The energy of electromagnetic waves is highly dependent on their frequency and wavelength.
Electromagnetic waves with a high frequency and small wavelength will have higher energy compared to those with low frequency and high wavelength.
X-rays are one the most energetic waves on the periodic table. They have a very high frequency and low wavelength.
