Answer:

the centripetal force on the satellite in the larger orbit is _one fourth_ as that on the satellite in the smaller orbit.

Explanation:

Mass of satellite, m

orbit radius of first, r1 = r

orbit radius of second, r2  = 2r

Centripetal force is given by

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

Where v be the orbital velocity, which is given by

v=\sqrt{gr}

So, the centripetal force is given by

F= \frac{mgr}}{r}}=mg

where, g bet the acceleration due to gravity

g=\frac{GM}{r^{2}}

So, the centripetal force

F= \frac{GMm}}{r^{2}}}

Gravitational force on the satellite having larger orbit

F= \frac{GMm}{4r^{2}} .... (1)

Gravitational force on the satellite having smaller orbit

F'= \frac{GMm}{r^{2}} .... (2)

Comparing (1) and (2),

F' = 4 F

So, the centripetal force on the satellite in the larger orbit is _one fourth_ as that on the satellite in the smaller orbit.

Carly's friends think she may be diving into pseudoscience .

  • When presented as pseudoscience, a claim, finding, or explanatory framework lacks the objectivity needed for scientific inquiry. Research that is based on dubious ideas, a defective experimental design, or unreliable data can also lead to pseudoscience.
  • The word "pseudoscience" can be used to describe a single assertion or claim that is allegedly supported by facts or science but falls apart when put to the test of reason.
  • A complicated system, like astrology, that claims to explain how astronomical occurrences cause and effect world events is another example of a pseudoscience. Many pseudosciences, like astrology, are reasonably safe.

Radio waves travel at the speed of light, which is 3.00 u 108 m/s. How many kilometers will radio messages travel in exactly one
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:                

Distance traveled will be 9.462\times 10^{12}km

Explanation:

We have given speed of the light v=3\times 10^8m/sec

We have to find the distance traveled by light in 1 year

We know that 1 year = 8760 hour

And 1 hour = 60×60 = 3600 sec

So 1 year =8760\times 3600=3.154\times 10^{7}sec

We know that distance = speed × time

So distance traveled by light in one year =3.154\times 10^7\times 3\times 10^8=9.462\times 10^{15}m

We have to fond the distance in km

As we know that 1 km = 1000 m

So 9.462\times 10^{15}m=\frac{9.462\times 10^{15}}{1000}=9.462\times 10^{12}km

Características sobre los conectores SATA
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

SATA tiene las siguientes características importantes: Voltaje reducido. Los estándares ATA actuales utilizan 5,0 V o 3,3 V (ATA-100/133). Estos voltajes relativamente altos junto con altas densidades de pines hacen que 100 MB / s sea la velocidad de datos más alta que se puede alcanzar de manera realista.
