Answer:

121.7 m/s

Explanation:

Horizontal range, R = 1420 m

Angle of projection, θ = 35°

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s^2

let u be the velocity of projection.

Use the formula for horizontal range

R=\frac{u^{2}Sin2\theta }{g}

1420=\frac{u^{2}Sin70 }{9.8}

u = 121.7 m/s

Thus, the velocity of projection is 121.7 m/s.

Answer:

v_{o}=141.51m/s

Explanation:

From the exercise we know the final x distance, the angle which the projectile is being released and acceleration of gravity

x=1420m\\g=-9.8m/s^{2}

From the equation of x-position we know that

x=v_{ox}t=v_{o}cos(35)t

Solving for v_{o}

v_{o}=\frac{x}{tcos(35)} =\frac{1420m}{tcos(35)} (1)

Now, if we analyze the equation of y-position we got

y=y_{o}+v_{oy}t+\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

At the end of the motion y=0

0=v_{o}sin(35)t+\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

Knowing the equation for v_{o} in (1)

0=\frac{1420}{tcos(35)}tsin(35)-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^{2}

\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^{2}=1420tan(35)

Solving for t

t=\sqrt{\frac{2(1420tan(35))}{9.8} } =14.25s

Now, we can solve (1)

v_{o}=\frac{1420m}{(14.25s)cos(35)}=141.51m/s

A 5,000 kg satellite is orbiting the Earth in a circular path. The height of the satellite above the surface of the Earth is 800
Arada [10]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

            m = 5000 kg,            h = 800 km = 0.8 \times 10^{6} m

    R_{e} = 6.37 \times 10^{6} m,    r = R + h = 7.17 \times 10^{6} m

   M_{e} = 5.98 \times 10^{24} kg,   G = 6.67 \times 10^{-11} Nm^{2}/kg^{2}

As we know that,

              \frac{mv^{2}}{r} = \frac{GmM_{e}}{r^{2}}

                      v = \sqrt{\frac{GM_{e}}{r^{2}}}

And, it is known that formula to calculate angular velocity is as follows.

               \omega = \frac{v}{r} = \sqrt{\frac{GM_{e}}{r^{3}}}

                            v = \sqrt{\frac{GM_{e}}{r^{3}}}

                               = \sqrt{\frac{6.67 \times 10^{-11} Nm^{2}/kg^{2} \times 5.98 \times 10^{-24} kg^{-2}}{(7.17 \times 10^{6} m)^{3}}}

                                = 1.0402 \times 10^{-3} rad/s

Thus, we can conclude that speed of the satellite is 1.0402 \times 10^{-3} rad/s.
