A geosynchronous satellite moves in a circular orbit around the Earth and completes one circle in the same time T during which t

he Earth completes one revolution around its own axis. The satellite has mass m and the Earth has mass M and radius R. In order to be geosynchronous, the satellite must be at a certain height h above the Earth’s surface. Derive an expression for h in terms of m, M. R, T and constants.

Answer:

Explanation:

The time period of geosynchronous satellite must be equal to T .

The radius of its orbit will be (  R+ h )

orbital velocity  V₀ =  \sqrt{\frac{GM}{( R+h)} }

Time period T = 2π( R + h ) / V₀

= 2π( R + h ) x \sqrt{\frac{( R+h)}{GM } }

\frac{T^\frac{2}{3}(GM)^\frac{1}{3}  }{(2\pi )^\frac{2}{3} } = R +h

h = \frac{T^\frac{2}{3}(GM)^\frac{1}{3}  }{(2\pi )^\frac{2}{3} } - R.

What would a bullet fired from a very long distance, such as 1000 yards from the target do as it travelled along a straight path
ivann1987 [24]

The bullet would start to veer of path, either to the right or left and also downword. This happens because gravity is pushing it down and it no longer has enough thrust force pushing it in a straight direction because drag and air friction are slowing it down. The forces would include gravity, thrust, drag, and air resistence.

If you hit another object with your vehicle, your _______ will be slowed or stopped by the force of impact caused by that object
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

Speed

Explanation:

If a vehicle hit any other object then its speed will slow down or some time the vehicle will stop its depends on the force exerted by other object on the vehicle.

The change in speed of vehicle is due to momentum because momentum is always conserved. So to conserve the momentum the speed of the vehicle decreases because after hitting the overall mass is increases.

a ball of mass 0.5 kg is released from rest at a height of 30 m. how fast is it going when it hits the ground? acceleration due
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

24.25m/s

Explanation:

m = 0.5kg

u ( initial velocity) = 0m/s

v ( final velocity) =?

a = 9.8m/s^2

d (displacement) = 30m

Since u don't have time, u only have the choice to use this formula

V^2 = u^2 + 2ad

V^2 = 0 + 2 x 9.8 x 30

V^2 = 588

V = 24.25 m/s
