A 4000 kg satellite is placed 2.60 x 10^6 m above the surface of the Earth.
mash [69]

a) The acceleration of gravity is 4.96 m/s^2

b) The critical velocity is 6668 m/s (24,006 km/h)

c) The period of the orbit is 8452 s

d) The satellite completes 10.2 orbits per day

e) The escape velocity of the satellite is 9430 m/s

f) The escape velocity of the rocket is 11,191 m/s

Explanation:

a)

The acceleration of gravity for an object near a planet is given by

g=\frac{GM}{(R+h)^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the planet

R is the radius of the planet

h is the height above the surface

In this problem,

M=5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg (mass of the Earth)

R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m (Earth's radius)

h=2.60\cdot 10^6 m (altitude of the satellite)

Substituting,

g=\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24}}{(6.37\cdot 10^6 + 2.60\cdot 10^6)^2}=4.96 m/s^2

b)

The critical velocity for a satellite orbiting around a planet is given by

v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{R+h}}

where we have again:

M=5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg (mass of the Earth)

R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m (Earth's radius)

h=2.60\cdot 10^6 m (altitude of the satellite)

Substituting,

v=\sqrt{\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24}}{(6.37\cdot 10^6 + 2.60\cdot 10^6)}}=6668 m/s

Converting into km/h,

v=6668 m/s \cdot \frac{3600 s/h}{1000 m/km}=24,006 km/h

c)

The period of the orbit is given by the circumference of the orbit divided by the velocity:

T=\frac{2\pi (R+h)}{v}

where

R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m

h=2.60\cdot 10^6 m

v = 6668 m/s

Substituting,

T=\frac{2\pi (6.37\cdot 10^6 + 2.60\cdot 10^6)}{6668}=8452 s

d)

One day consists of:

t = 24 \frac{hours}{day} \cdot 60 \frac{min}{hours} \cdot 60 \frac{s}{min}=86400 s

While the period of the orbit is

T = 8452 s

So, the number of orbits completed by the satellite in one day is

n=\frac{t}{T}=\frac{86400}{8452}=10.2

e)

The escape velocity for an object in the gravitational field of a planet is given by

v=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R+h}}

where here we have:

M=5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg

R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m

h=2.60\cdot 10^6 m

Substituting, we find

v=\sqrt{\frac{2(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24}}{(6.37\cdot 10^6 + 2.60\cdot 10^6)}}=9430 m/s

f)

We can apply again the formula to find the escape velocity for the rocket:

v=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R+h}}

Where this time we have:

M=5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg

R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m

h=0, because the rocket is located at the Earth's surface, so its altitude is zero.

And substituting,

v=\sqrt{\frac{2(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24}}{(6.37\cdot 10^6)}}=11,191 m/s

A charge of 12 c passes through an electroplating apparatus in 2. 0 min. what is the average current?
Studentka2010 [4]

A charge of 12 c passes through an electroplating apparatus in 2.0 min, then the average current is 0.1 ampere.

<h3>What is an electric charge?</h3>

Charged material experiences a force when it is exposed to an electromagnetic field due to the physical property of electric charge. You can have a positive or negative electric charge.

Electric current is defined as the charge per unit of time.

The mathematical relation between current and the electric charge

I =Q/T

where I is the current flowing

Q is the total electric charge

T is the time period for which the current is flowing

As given in the problem A charge of 12 c passes through an electroplating apparatus in 2.0 min

Let us first convert the time period of minutes into seconds

1 min = 60 seconds

2 min = 2*60 seconds

         =120 seconds

By using the above relation between electric current and electric charge

and by substituting the respective values of the charge and the time period

I =Q/T

I = 12c/120 seconds

I = 0.1 Ampere

Thus, the average current flowing through the apparatus would be 0.1 Ampere.

Describe how a unique position of the sun , earth, and moon creates a lunar eclipse
Serggg [28]
A eclipse of the sun can only occur at a new moon when the moon passes between earth and sun. If the moons shadow happens to fall upon earths surface at a time, you'll see some portion of the suns disk covered or aka eclipsed by the moon.. I hope that helps
