Answer:

The correct answer is V√5

Explanation:

Let V be the velocity of the satellite orbiting at radius r.

Let V(5r) be the velocity of the satellite orbiting at radius 5r.

Recall:

Escape velocity is given by:

V = √(2gr)

Where V is the escape velocity

g is the acceleration due to gravity

r is the radius of the earth.

With the above equation, we can obtain the answer to the question as follow:

V = √(2gr)

V(5r) = √(2g5r)

Next, we'll obtained the ratio of V(5r) to V as shown below

V(5r) : V => V(5r)/V

V(5r)/V = √(2g5r) / √(2gr)

V(5r)/V = √5

Cross multiply

V(5r) = V√5

From the above illustration, we can see that when the satellite is moved to 3r, then the expression for the velocity will be V√5

A) 350 J

- The initial internal energy of the cup is

U_i = 230 J

- The final internal energy of the cup is

U_f = 580 J

According to the first law of thermodynamics:

U_f - U_i = Q+W

where

Q is the heat absorbed by the system

W is the work done on the system

The work done on the system in this case is 0, so we can rewrite the equation as

U_f - U_i = Q

And so we find the heat transferred

Q=580 J - 230 J=350 J

B) IN the cup

Explanation:

in this situation, we see that the internal energy of the cup increases. The internal energy of an object/substance is proportional to its temperature, so it is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the molecules of the object/substance. Therefore, in this case, the temperature (and the energy of the molecules of the substance) has increased: this means that heat has been transferred INTO the system from the environment (the heat came from the sun).

A snowball accelerates at
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

0. 1226495726kg

Explanation:

Force is the product of mass and acceleration.

Mathematically,

Force(F) = mass (m)×acceleration(a)

Substituting the values into the equation

2. 87=m×23. 4

2. 87=m (23. 4)

2. 87/23. 4=m (23. 4)/23. 4

2. 87/23. 4=m

0. 1226495726=m
