Answer:

total capacity  = 135,168,000,000 bytes

Explanation:

given data

hard disk divided = 1100 sectors

cylinders = 40,000

block holds = 512 bytes

rotating  rate = 4800 rpm

consider average seek time = 12 msec

to find out

total capacity of this disk

solution

total capacity of this disk are express as

total capacity  = hard disk divided × cylinder  block holds × average seek time ÷ 2

put here value we get

total capacity  =  1100 × 40000 × 512 × 6

total capacity  = 135,168,000,000 bytes

A satellite orbits the earth a distance of 1.50 × 107 m above the planet's surface and takes 8.65 hours for each revolution abou
kupik [55]

Answer:

The acceleration of the satellite is 0.87 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

The acceleration in a circular motion is defined as:

a = \frac{v^{2}}{r}  (1)

Where a is the centripetal acceleration, v the velocity and r is the radius.

The equation of the orbital velocity is defined as

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

Where r is the radius and T is the period

For this particular case, the radius will be the sum of the high of the satellite (1.50x10^{7} m) and the Earth radius (6.38x10^{6} m) :

r = 1.50x10^{7} m+6.38x10^{6}m

r = 21.38x10^{6}m

Then, equation 2 can be used:

T = 8.65 hrs \cdot \frac{3600 s}{1hrs} ⇒ 31140 s

v = \frac{2 \pi (21.38x10^{6}m)}{31140s}

v = 4313 m/s

Finally equation 1 can be used:

a = \frac{(4313m/s)^{2}}{21.38x10^{6}m}    

a = 0.87 m/s^{2}

Hence, the acceleration of the satellite is 0.87 m/s^{2}

Consider a model of a hydrogen atom in which an electron is in a circular orbit of radius r = 5.92×10−11 m around a stationary p
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

2.068 x 10^6 m / s

Explanation:

radius, r = 5.92 x 10^-11 m

mass of electron, m = 9.1 x 10^-31 kg

charge of electron, q = 1.6 x 10^-19 C

As the electron is revolving in a circular path, it experiences a centripetal force which is balanced by the electrostatic force between the electron and the nucleus.

centripetal force = \frac{mv^{2}}{r}

Electrostatic force = \frac{kq^{2}}{r^{2}}

where, k be the Coulombic constant, k = 9 x 10^9 Nm^2 / C^2

So, balancing both the forces we get

\frac{kq^{2}}{r^{2}}=\frac{mv^{2}}{r}

v=\sqrt{\frac{kq^{2}}{mr}}

v=\sqrt{\frac{9\times 10^{9}\times1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 5.92\times10^{-11}}}

v = 2.068 x 10^6 m / s

Thus, the speed of the electron is give by  2.068 x 10^6 m / s.

How are the climates of coastal regions affected by the specific heat capacity of water?
Katen [24]

Answer:

The specific heat capacity can be defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 unit of mass by 1 unit temperature. The specific heat capacity of water is 4.186 joule/gram °C which is higher than common substances. The land has lower specific heat capacity. Thus, the land gets hot quickly than water.

This results in warming up air near the land which creates a difference in pressure across the coastal region. Sea breeze blows from sea towards landmass. Opposite happens at night, when water is still warm and land gets cooled down quickly. Then land breeze blows  from landmass towards the sea. This breeze maintains a moderate temperature and windy and humid weather in the coastal regions.
