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?

7 0

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

A proton is projected into a magnetic field that is directed along the positive x axis. Find the direction of the magnetic force
bulgar [2K]

Te direction of the magnetic force for the velocity of the proton in the

-ve  y direction will be +ve z direction.

As we know that the right-hand rule is based on the relation of magnetic fields and the forces that they exert on moving charges.When a charged particle moves under a magnetic field, it exerts a force on the particle, which is not in the same direction but different than the direction of the magnetic field.Under the right-hand rule,  if we point our pointer finger in the direction of the charged particle is moving and the middle finger is representing the direction of the magnetic field then our thumb depicts the direction of the magnetic force which is exerted on the charged particle.

So,  we are given that the direction of the velocity of the proton is in the negative y direction and the direction of the magnetic field is in the positive x  direction,  so the magnetic force is acting in the positive z direction.

To know  more about the right-hand rule refer to the link brainly.com/question/9750730?referrer=searchResults.

Use the following half-life graph to answer the following question:
Temka [501]

Answer:

A 1.0 min

Explanation:

The half-life of a radioisotope is defined as the time it takes for the mass of the isotope to halve compared to the initial value.

From the graph in the problem, we see that the initial mass of the isotope at time t=0 is

m_0 = 50.0 g

The half-life of the isotope is the time it takes for half the mass of the sample to decay, so it is the time t at which the mass will be halved:

m'=\frac{50.0 g}{2}=25.0 g

We see that this occurs at t = 1.0 min, so the half-life of the isotope is exactly 1.0 min.

At what distance will the weight of a body be halved , Earth's radius=6.4×10^6
Sholpan [36]

A body of mass m has weight

F = GMm/r²

on the surface of the Earth, where G is the universal gravitational constant, M is the mass of the Earth, and r is it's radius.

If the weight is to be halved, then we have

1/2 F = 1/2 GMm/r² = (1/√2)² GMm/r² = GMm/(√2 r²)

so the distance between the body and the planet's center needs to be

√2 × 6.4 × 10⁶ m ≈ 9.1 × 10⁶ m
