Answer:

7500 m/s

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration = gravity

v² / r = GM / r²

v = √(GM / r)

Given:

G = 6.67×10⁻¹¹ m³/kg/s²

M = 5.98×10²⁴ kg

r = 6.8×10⁵ + 6.357×10⁶ = 7.037×10⁶ m

v = √(6.67×10⁻¹¹ (5.98×10²⁴) / (7.037×10⁶))

v = 7500

The orbital velocity is 7500 m/s.

Which one of the following is not equivalent to 2.50 miles?
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Choice C is not equivalent to 2.50 miles.

Explanation:

The given data is now converted into feet, inches, kilometers, yards and centimeters:

mi - ft

x = (2.50\,mi)\cdot \left(5280\,\frac{ft}{mi} \right)

x = 13200\,ft

x = 1.320\times 10^{4}\,ft (Choice A)

mi - in

x = (2.50\,mi)\cdot \left(5280\,\frac{ft}{mi} \right)\cdot \left(12\,\frac{in}{ft} \right)

x = 158400\,in

x = 1.584\times 10^{5} (Choice B)

mi - km

x = (2.50\,mi)\cdot \left(1.61\,\frac{km}{mi} \right)

x = 4.025\,km (Different from Choice C)

mi - yd

x = (2.50\,mi)\cdot \left(5280\,\frac{ft}{mi}\right) \cdot \left(\frac{1}{3}\,\frac{yd}{ft}  \right)

x = 4400\,yd

x = 4.40\times 10^{3}\,yd (Choice D)

mi - cm

x = (2.50\,mi)\cdot \left(1.61\,\frac{km}{mi} \right)\cdot \left(100000\,\frac{cm}{km}\right)

x = 402500\,cm

x = 4.025\times 10^{5}\,cm (Choice E)

Choice C is not equivalent to 2.50 miles.

Why is the ocean warmer than the air at night
Sliva [168]

You see, during the day the ocean collects heat from the sun. So the air above the ocean get warm at night, but the rest of the air on the land gets cooler because water has the ability to collect energy from the Sun.
