Geosynchronous satellites orbit the Earth at a distance of 42 000 km from the Earth's center. Their angular speed at this height

is the same as the rotation rate of the Earth, so they appear stationary at certain locations in the sky. What is the force acting on a 1 500-kg satellite at this height?

Answer:

Force will be 7.97 N

Explanation:

We have given that earth is at s distance of 42000 km from the earth center

So r = 42000 km = 42000000 m

Mass m = 1500 kg

Angular velocity of earth \omega =7.29\times 10^{-5}rad/sec

We have to find the force

We know that force is given by

F=m\omega ^2r=1500\times (7.29\times 10^{-5})^2\times 42000000=797.1615\times 10^{-2}=7.97N

The cylinder valve is open and the gas is collected and atmospheric pressure
jok3333 [9.3K]

Less gas will be collected because some of the gases will escape from the open cylinder valve.

Cylinders used to store carbon dioxide will have thicker walls than those of butane because of higher pressures.

<h3>What are compressed gases?</h3>

Compressed gases are gases which are compressed under high pressure in gas cylinders.

Cylinder valves are used to reduce the pressure of the compressed gases and in the process, some of the gas molecules escape.

Since the cylinder valve is open and the gas is collected at atmospheric pressure, less gas will be collected because some of the gases will escape.

Since, the carbon dioxide not liquefy under pressure compared to butane, the cylinders used to store carbon dioxide will have thicker walls than those of butane.

What is the significance of the nose end marking on a rocket or missile?
Gemiola [76]
If you're referring to the different colors that usually occur at the tip of missles, rockets and some other aircraft, it either a) signifies the end of a particular plate of metal, fabricated specifically to be for the nose. Sometimes these can even be a different alloy or metal all together. or b) this shows where the curved surface begins, so in the case of damage or imperfections due to wear, they can be repaired and measured more easily. The shape of the nose is extremely important for smooth flight, and a dent or bump formed on it can make the aircraft unstable. If you can measure from where the curve starts by the difference in color, it makes repairing or re-fabricating the part much easier. Many of these curves aren't as simple as they appear.

A boat of mass 225 kg drifts along a river at a speed of 21 m/s to the west. what impulse is required to decrease the speed of t
zzz [600]
The impulse required to decrease the speed of the boat is equal to the variation of momentum of the boat:
J=\Delta p=m \Delta v
where
m=225 kg is the mass of the boat
\Delta v=v_f-v_i=15 m/s-21 m/s=-6 m/s is the variation of velocity of the boat
By substituting the numbers into the first equation, we find the impulse:
J=m\Delta v=(225 kg)(-6 m/s)=-1350 N s
and the negative sign means the direction of the impulse is against the direction of motion of the boat.
