Answer:

0.5m(v1)²

Explanation:

We know that work done on an object is equal to the change in the kinetic energy of that object. Hence,

W. D = ΔK. E.

ΔK. E. = K. E.(final) - K. E.(initial)

Initial Kinetic energy, K. E.(initial), is:

K. E.(initial) = 0 (the box was at West)

Final K. E., K. E.(final) is:

K. E.(final) = 0.5*m*(v1)²

Hence, work done on the box will be:

W. D. = 0.5m(v1)² - 0

W. D. = 0.5m(v1)²

A satellite orbits a planet of unknown mass in a circular orbit of radius 2.3 x 104 km. The gravitational force on the satellite
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

The  kinetic energy is KE  =  7.59  *10^{10} \  J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

       The  radius of the orbit is  r =  2.3 *10^{4} \ km  = 2.3  *10^{7} \ m

       The gravitational force is  F_g  = 6600 \ N

The kinetic energy of the satellite is mathematically represented as

       KE  =  \frac{1}{2} * mv^2

where v is the speed of the satellite which is mathematically represented as

     v  = \sqrt{\frac{G  M}{r^2} }

=>  v^2  =  \frac{GM }{r}

substituting this into the equation

      KE  =  \frac{ 1}{2} *\frac{GMm}{r}

Now the gravitational force of the planet is mathematically represented as

      F_g  = \frac{GMm}{r^2}

Where M is the mass of the planet and  m is the mass of the satellite

 Now looking at the formula for KE we see that we can represent it as

     KE  =  \frac{ 1}{2} *[\frac{GMm}{r^2}] * r

=>    KE  =  \frac{ 1}{2} *F_g * r

substituting values

       KE  =  \frac{ 1}{2} *6600 * 2.3*10^{7}

         KE  =  7.59  *10^{10} \  J
