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 )

Write a hypothesis about the use of an object's physical
KengaRu [80]

If the mass of the object and the volume of the object is determined;

Then, the density of the object is determined by taking the ratio of the mass and volume.

<h3>What is density of an object?</h3>

The density of an object is the ratio of the mass and volume of that object.

Mathematically;

  • Density = mass/volume

To determine the density of an object therefore, the physical characteristics of mass and the volume of the object are measured.

The mass of the object is obtained using a scale or a balance.

The volume of the object if a solid is obtained using a displacement bottle. If it is a liquid, a measuring cylinder is used.

The density of the object is then obtained by taking the ratio of the mass and the volume of the object.

In conclusion, the density of an object is determined from the volume and mass ratio.

Which of the following creates an adhesive force that prevents separation of the parietal and visceral pleurae during ventilatio
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

Negative intrapleural pressure is the correct answer

Explanation:

Intrapleural pressure is more subatmospheric in the uppermost part of the thorax than in the lowermost parts in the standing horse.

Air moves from a region of higher pressure to one of lower pressure.  Therefore, for air to be moved into or out of the lungs, a pressure difference between the atmosphere and the alveoli must be established. If there is no pressure difference, no airflow will occur.

Under normal circumstances, inspiration is accomplished by causing alveolar pressure to fall below atmospheric pressure. When the mechanics of breathing are being discussed, atmospheric pressure is conventionally referred to as 0 cm H2O, so lowering alveolar pressure below atmospheric pressure is known as negative-pressure breathing.

Ignacio and Velvet walk eastward with a speed of 8 m/s. If it takes them 7.5 minutes to walk to the store, how far in meters hav
ryzh [129]

Answer:

They walk 3,600 meters

Explanation:

7.5 minutes = 450 seconds.

Because they are walking at 8 meters per 1 second, multiply 8 by 450.

= 3600m
