Answer:

<em>v = 3.08 k ms^-1</em>

Explanation:

As we know that, v=\sqrt{GM/r}

where r = R + h = 35768 + 6400 = 42168 km = 4.2168 x 10^7 m

G = 6.673 x 10^-11 N m^-2 kg^-2 and M = 6.0 x 10^24 kg

By substituting the required values, we get...

v = \sqrt{}6.673 x 10^-11 x 6.0 x 10^24 / 4.2168 x 10^7 = \sqrt{}9.494 x 10^6 ms^-1 = 3081.2 ms^-1 = 3.08 k ms^-1

Answer:

2716.84 m/s

Explanation:

Using,

F = mv²/r................. Equation 1

Where F = The force keeping the satellite in the orbit, m = mass of the satellite, v = velocity of the satellite, r = radius of the circular orbit.

make v the subject of equation 1

v = √(Fr/m).................. Equation 2

Given: F = 44.1 N, r = 35768 km = 35768000 m, m = 213.7 kg.

Substitute into equation 2

v = √(44.1×35768000/213.7)

v = √(7381229.761)

v = 2716.84 m/s

Hence the velocity of the satellite = 2716.84 m/s

An object weighing 150 N and is suspended from the ceiling by a wire. What is the tension in the cord?​
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

<h2>150N</h2>

Explanation:

According to newton's third law of motion, Action and reaction are equal and opposite, hence for an object that weighs 150N suspended by a wire, the tension on the wire is 150N

Ultimately the tension on a string or an object is equal to the mass times   gravity(which is same as the weight of the object)
