Answer:
Explanation:
Orbital radius of satellite A , Ra = 6370 + 6370 = 12740 km
Orbital radius of satellite B , Rb = 6370 + 19110 = 25480 km
Orbital potential energy of a satellite = - GMm / r where G is gravitational constant , M is mass of the earth and m is mass of the satellite
Orbital potential energy of a satellite A = - GMm / Ra
Orbital potential energy of a satellite B = - GMm / Rb
PE of satellite B /PE of satellite A
= Ra / Rb
= 12740 / 25480
= 1 / 2
b ) Kinetic energy of a satellite is half the potential energy with positive value , so ratio of their kinetic energy will also be same
KE of satellite B /KE of satellite A
= 1 / 2
c ) Total energy will be as follows
Total energy = - PE + KE
- P E + PE/2
= - PE /2
Total energy of satellite B / Total energy of A
= 1 / 2
Satellite B will have greater total energy because its negative value is less.
<u>Answer
</u>
A. 1 and 2
<u>Explanation
</u>
At point 1 we have the highest potential energy and the kinetic energy is zero.
At 2 the potential energy is minimum and the kinetic energy is maximum.
The law of conservation of energy says that energy cannot be created nor destroyed. So, the change in P.E = Change in K.E.
P.E = height × gravity × mass. The height referred here is the perpendicular height. Gravity and mass are constant in this case.
From the diagram it can be seen clearly that the vertical height from 2 to 1 is much greater than from 4 to 3.
This shows that the change in P.E is greater between 1 and 2 and so is kinetic energy.
Answer:
PE = (|accepted value – experimental value| \ accepted value) x 100%
Explanation:
Answer:
a) - 72.5°c
b) pressure = 3625.13 Pa
c) density = 0.063 kg/m^3
d) it is a subsonic aircraft
Explanation:
a) Determine Temperature
Temperature at 19.5 km ( 19500 m )
T = -131 + ( 0.003 * altitude in meters )
= -131 + ( 0.003 * 19500 ) = - 72.5°c
b) Determine pressure and density at 19.5 km altitude
Given :
Po (atmospheric pressure at sea level ) = 101kpa
R ( gas constant of air ) = 0.287 KJ/Kgk
T = -72.5°c ≈ 200.5 k
pressure = 3625.13 Pa
hence density = 0.063 kg/m^3
attached below is the remaining part of the solution
C) determine if the aircraft is subsonic or super sonic
Velocity ( v ) =
=
= 283.8 m/s
hence it is a subsonic aircraft
