What was the speed of a space shuttle that orbited Earth at an altitude of 1482 km?

gregori [183]

Answer:

v = 7121.3 m/s

Explanation:

As we know that the centripetal force for the space shuttle is due to gravitational force of earth due to which it will rotate in circular path with constant speed

so here we will have

$\frac{mv^2}{r} = \frac{GMm}{r^2}$

here we know that

r = orbital radius = 6370 km + 1482 km

$r = 7.852 \times 10^6 m$

also we know that

$M = 5.97 \times 10^{24} kg$

now we will have

$v^2 = \frac{(6.67 \times 10^{-11})(5.97 \times 10^{24})}{7.852 \times 10^6}$

$v^2 = 5.07 \times 10^7$

$v = 7121.3 m/s$

Two trains travel toward each other on the same track, beginning 100 miles apart. One train travels at 40 miles per hour; the ot

Paladinen [302]

D = distance between th two trains at the start of the motion = 100 miles

V = speed of the faster train towards slower train = 60 mph

v = speed of the slower train towards faster train = 40 mph

t = time taken by the two trains to collide = ?

time taken by the two trains to collide is given as

t = D/(V + v)

t = 100/(60 + 40) = 1 h

v' = speed of the bird = 90 mph

d = distance traveled by the bird

distance traveled by the bird is given as

d = v' t

d = 90 x 1

d = 90 miles
