Answer:

Orbital speed=8102.39m/s

Time period=2935.98seconds

Explanation:

For the satellite to be in a stable orbit at a height, h, its centripetal acceleration V2R+h must equal the acceleration due to gravity at that distance from the center of the earth g(R2(R+h)2)

V2R+h=g(R2(R+h)2)

V=√g(R2R+h)

V= sqrt(9.8 × (6371000)^2/(6371000+360000)

V= sqrt(9.8× (4.059×10^13/6731000)

V=sqrt(65648789.18)

V= 8102.39m/s

Time period ,T= sqrt(4× pi×R^3)/(G× Mcentral)

T= sqrt(4×3.142×(6.47×10^6)^3/(6.673×10^-11)×(5.98×10^24)

T=sqrt(3.40×10^21)/ (3.99×10^14)

T= sqrt(0.862×10^7)

T= 2935.98seconds

If the plotted points on a speed-time graph do not form a straight line, what do you know about the object's acceleration?
slega [8]
Remember, that while sped is constant, acceleration is not. Acceleration is when velicity changes. So the graph which shows the slop <span>of a velocity vs time describes acceleration.
</span>If we have the straight line on the graph it means that the slope is always the same whereas the <span>non-linear graphs has a variable slope that changes depending on your point in the graph.
</span>To conclude - if your graph is not a straight line it has variable acc at many points.<span>

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

+14.0 m/s

Explanation:

we have mV + Mv = mU + Mu we solve for U = (mV + Mv - Mu)/m = (328*19.1 + 790*13 - 790*15.1)/328 = 14. Answer

Nicholas sends 20.0 minutes ironing shirts with his 1800-watt irn . How many joules of energy were usedby the iron
Nuetrik [128]
1 watt = 1 joule/sec
1800 watts = 1800 joules/sec

                 (1800 J/sec) x (20 min) x (60 sec/min)

             =  (1800 x 20 x 60) joules  =  2,160,000 joules .

                                                             ( 2.16 megajoules )
