Factor each expression.<br>a. d2 + 8d + 7

The question relates to Archimedes' principle which states that the buoyant force experienced by an object immersed in a fluid is equal to the weight of (the force of gravity on) the displaced fluid

The given parameters are;

The combined mass of the person and the raft, m = 233 kg

The liquid on which the raft is located = Water

The density of water, $\rho _{water}$ = 1000 kg/m³

Weight = Mass, m × g

Where;

m = The mass of the object

g = The acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Given that the raft is on the surface of the water (floating), the buoyant force is equal to the combined weight of the person and the raft = 233 kg

The combined weight of the person and the raft, $W_{combined}$ = 233 kg × 9.8 m/s² = 2,283.4 N

Therefore;

The buoyant force = 2,283.4 N = The weight of the water displaced

The mass of the water displaced, $m_{water}$ , = 2,283.4 N/(9.8 m/s²) = 233 kg

Density = Mass/Volume

The volume of water displaced by the raft = The mass of the water displaced/(The density of the water) = 233 kg/(1,000 kg/m³) = 0.233 m³.

A satellite is in a circular orbit about the earth (ME = 5.98 x 10^24 kg). The period of the satellite is 1.26 x 10^4 s. What is

Soloha48 [4]

Answer: $V=5839.051m/s$

Explanation:

According to the <u>Third Kepler’s Law</u> of Planetary motion:

$T^{2}=\frac{4\pi^{2}}{GM}a^{3}$ (1)

Where;:

$T=1.26(10)^{4}s$ is the period of the satellite

$G$ is the Gravitational Constant and its value is $6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}}$

$M=5.98(10)^{24}kg$ is the mass of the Earth

$a$ is the semimajor axis of the orbit the satllite describes around the Earth (as we know it is a circular orbit, the semimajor axis is equal to the radius of the orbit).
