Answer:

10.1 s

Explanation:

The time of flight of the package is entirely determined by its vertical motion, which is a free fall motion (it is acted upon the force of gravity only). Therefore, it is a uniformly accelerated motion, so we can use the suvat equation:

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

s is the vertical distance covered

u is the initial vertical velocity

t is the time of flight

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

For the package in this problem, we have:

s = 500 m is the vertical distance covered

u = 0 is the initial vertical velocity (initially it has only horizontal motion)

So, solving for t, we find the time of flight:

t=\sqrt{\frac{2s}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(500)}{9.8}}=10.1 s

An artificial satellite is in a circular orbit around a planet of radius r= 2.05 x103 km at a distance d 310.0 km from the plane
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

\rho = 12580.7 kg/m^3

Explanation:

As we know that the satellite revolves around the planet then the centripetal force for the satellite is due to gravitational attraction force of the planet

So here we will have

F = \frac{GMm}{(r + h)^2}

here we have

F =\frac {mv^2}{(r+ h)}

\frac{mv^2}{r + h} = \frac{GMm}{(r + h)^2}

here we have

v = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{(r + h)}}

now we can find time period as

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

T = \frac{2\pi (2.05 \times 10^6 + 310 \times 10^3)}{\sqrt{\frac{GM}{(r + h)}}}

1.15 \times 3600 = \frac{2\pi (2.05 \times 10^6 + 310 \times 10^3)}{\sqrt{\frac{(6.67 \times 10^{-11})(M)}{(2.05 \times 10^6 + 310 \times 10^3)}}}

M = 4.54 \times 10^{23} kg

Now the density is given as

\rho = \frac{M}{\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3}

\rho = \frac{4.54 \times 10^{23}}{\frac{4}[3}\pi(2.05 \times 10^6)^3}

\rho = 12580.7 kg/m^3
