3.7.6. A satellite is in a circular orbit around the Earth. If it is at an altitude equal to twice the radius of the Earth, 2RE,

how does its speed v relate to the Earth's radius RE, and the magnitude g of the acceleration due to gravity on the Earth's surface?a)b)c)d)e)

Answer:

Explanation:

For acceleration due to gravity

g = GM / R²  ---------------------------- ( 1 )

At height 2R , radius of orbit is 3R .

If speed of satellite be v

m v² / 3R = GMm / (3R)² ( centripetal force = gravitational force )

v² = GM / 3R -------------------------------------- ( 2 )

Dividing (1) and (2)

v² / g = R / 3

v² = gR / 3

v = √( gR / 3 )

Which is a scalar quantity displacement distance force acceleration​
cestrela7 [59]

A scalar is a quantity that is fully described by a magnitude only. It is described by just a single number. Some examples of scalar quantities include speed, volume, mass, temperature, power, energy, and time. A vector is a quantity that has both a magnitude and a direction.

I hope this helps you.

The velocity of an object is positive and steadily increasing. Which of the following graphs represents how the acceleration of
stiv31 [10]
If an object's velocity is steadily increasing it means that the acceleration is constant at a certain value.

Choice A shows an acceleration of zero which would only be true if the object was not moving or if its velocity was not changing.

Choice B gives us a graph showing acceleration increasing over time and is therefore incorrect.

Choice C is correct because the acceleration is constant. Steadily increasing tells us that the acceleration is fixed at a certain value.

Choice D is incorrect an represents a constant negative acceleration. This would be the case if the object was steadily decreasing in velocity.
