Why does a satellite in a circular orbit travel at a constant speed? why does a satellite in a circular orbit travel at a constant speed? there is a force acting opposite to the direction of the motion of the satellite. there is no component of force acting along the direction of motion of the satellite. the net force acting on the satellite is zero. the gravitational force acting on the satellite is balanced by the centrifugal force acting on the satellite?

Well first of all, you must realize that it depends on how the jumpers are distributed on the earth's surface. If,say, one billion of them are in the eastern hemisphere and the other billion are in the western one, then the sum of all of their momenta could easily be zero, and have no effect at all on the planet. I'm pretty sure what you must have in mind is to consider the Earth to be a block, with a flat upper surface, and all the people jump in the same direction.
average mass per person = 60 kg.
jump velocity = 7 m/s straight up and away from the block, all in the same direction
one person's worth of momentum = (m) (v) = 420 kg.m/s
sum of two billion of them = 8.4 x 10¹¹ kg-m/s all in the same direction
Earth's "recoil" momentum = 8.4 x 10¹¹ in the opposite direction = (m) (v)
Divide each side by 'm' : v = (momentum) / (mass) =
The Earth's "recoil" velocity is (8.4 x 10¹¹) / (5.98 x 10²⁴) =
1.405 x 10⁻¹³ m/s =
<em> 0.00000000014 millimeter per second
</em>I have no intuitive feeling for this kind of thing, so can't judge whether
the answer is reasonable. But my math and physics felt OK on the
way to the solution, so that's my answer and I'm sticking to it.
Vo = 5.89 m/s Y = 1.27 m g = 9.81 m/s^2
Time to height
Tr = Vo / g Tr = (5.89 m/s) / (9.81 m/s^2) Tr = 0.60 s
Max height achieved is:
H = Vo^2 / [2g] H = (5.89 )^2 / [ 2 * (9.81) ] H = (34.69) / [19.62] H = 1.77 m
It falls that distance, minus Andrew's catch distance:
h = H - Y h = (1.77 m) - (1.27 m) h = 0.5 m
Time to descend is therefore:
Tf = √ { [2h] / g ] Tf = √ { [ 2 * (0.5 m) ] / (9.81 m/s^2) } Tf = √ { [ 1.0 m ] / (9.81 m/s^2) } Tf = √ { 0.102 s^2 } Tf = 0.32 s
Total time is rise plus fall therefore:
Tt = Tr + Tf Tt = (0.60 s) + (0.32 s) Tt = 0.92 s (ANSWER)
Answer:
Your microwave will not turn on, and you speculate that a circuit breaker in the house has been tripped. In scientific terminology, the steps would be described as: <em><u>developing a hypothesis based on an observation</u></em>.
Answer:
B or D
Explanation:
I wanna say B but I don't really know if it's a trick question
my explanation for D is that anvils are usually 110 decibles and ear drums usually are damaged when exposed to 82dbs or higher at a consistant rate so I'd imagine that'd be the answer I hoped this helped
