Answer:
because when an object approaches the speed of light, it's mass starts to increase exponentially, and would be infinite at the speed of light. It would therefore require MORE than an infinite amount of energy to accelerate even a single electron to the speed of light
<span>The American Southwest and northeastern Africa are the two sunniest regions of the world, with the U.S. city of Yuma, Arizona, taking the crown as the sunniest place on Earth. Yuma, located where the state borders both California and Mexico, receives more than 4,000 sunlight hours per year and averages 11 sunny hours per day over the course of the year. Following closely behind Yuma is another U.S. city -- Phoenix -- which receives an average of 3,872 sunlight hours a year. The third sunniest spot on Earth is Aswan, Egypt, which has an average of 3,863 sunlight hours every year and averages 10.6 sunny hours per day.</span>
Momentum = mass*velocity(or speed)
241.5 kg*m/s = 115 kg * v
v = 241.5 kg*m/s / 115 kg = 2.10 m/s
Answer:
5.23km/s
Explanation:
Given
Radius of Earth = 6.37 * 10^6 m
Altitude of Satellite = 8200km = 8200 * 10³m = 8.2 * 10^6 m
Gravity Acceleration on Satellite Altitude = 1.87965m/s²
For a satellite to remain in circular orbit, then it means the acceleration of gravity must be exact as the centripetal acceleration.
Centripetal Acceleration = V²/R
So, Acceleration of Gravity (A)= Centripetal Acceleration = V²/R
Make V the subject of formula
A = V²/R
V² = AR
V = √AR
Where R = (radius of earth) + (altitude of satellite)
R = 6.37 * 10^6 + 8.2 * 10^6
R = 14.57 * 10^6m
A = 1.87965m/s²
V = √(1.87965 * 14.57x10^6)
V = √27386500.5
V = 5233.211299001789
V = 5233.2113 m/s ------- Approximated
V = 5.23km/s
