Answer:
W = 28226.88 N
Explanation:
Given,
Mass of the satellite, m = 5832 Kg
Height of the orbiting satellite from the surface, h = 4.13 x 10⁵ m
The time period of the orbit, T = 1.9 h
= 6840 s
The radius of the planet, R = 4.38 x 10⁶ m
The time period of the satellite is given by the formula
second
Squaring the terms and solving it for 'g'
g = 4 π²
m/s²
Substituting the values in the above equation
g = 4 π²
g = 4.84 m/s²
Therefore, the weight
w = m x g newton
= 5832 Kg x 4.84 m/s²
= 28226.88 N
Hence, the weight of the satellite at the surface, W = 28226.88 N
Answer:
<em>likely to decrease downstream in arid regions and increase downstream in temperate regions</em>
<em></em>
Explanation:
Arid regions are is a region with a severe lack of water, usually to the extent that affect the organisms living in the region. Arid regions are characterized by a very low depth of rainfall per year. Temperate region on the other hand experience more distinct seasonal change and wider temperature change. Temperate regions get a fairly large amount of rainfall per year.
In arid regions, the soil is very dry, and the rate of infiltration and percolation is high relative to the amount of rainfall available. The effect is that more water is infiltrated into the soil as you move downstream, leading to a decrease in the discharge of a stream as you move downstream. Most temperate region have soils that are usually saturated in the peak of the rainfall season, leading to a greater stream discharge as you move downstream.
Answer:2.47
Explanation: did the math
To answer these questions just use the equations for potential energy using the mass and heights described. the potential energy at the prescribed heights = the initial kinetic energy required to reach that height.
Make sure you calculate the force of gravity on the surface using the radius of the planet.
The earth all the way around is 196.9 million miles
