Two satellites are in circular orbits around a planet that has radius 9.00×106 m. One satellite has mass 68.0 kg, orbital radius

8.00×107 m , and orbital speed 4800 m/s. The second satellite has mass 84.0 kg and orbital radius 7.00×107
What is the orbital speed of this second satellite?

Answer:

v₂ = 5131.42 m/s

Explanation:

given,

radius of the planet = r₁ = 9.00×10⁶ m

mass of the satellite = m₁ = 68 Kg

orbital radius = r₁ = 8 x 10⁷ m

orbital speed = v₁ = 4800 m/s

mass of second satellite = m₂ =  84.0 kg

orbital radius = r₂ = 7.00×10⁷ m

orbital speed of second satellite = v₂ = ?

using orbital speed of satellite

            v = \sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{r}}

     so,

            v \alpha \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{r}}

now,

            \dfrac{v_1}{v_2} =\sqrt{\dfrac{r_2}{r_1}}

            \dfrac{v_2}{4800} =\sqrt{\dfrac{8\times 10^7}{7 \times 10^7}}

                v₂ = 5131.42 m/s

The orbital speed of second satellite is equal to v₂ = 5131.42 m/s

If a child ran into the road 65 to 70 feet ahead of your vehicle, what is the highest speed from which you could stop with good
Vlad [161]
Given:
Stopping distance range is d = (65, 70) ft.

The stopping distance, d, obeys this formula.
d = v²/(2μg)
where
v = speed of the vehicle
μ = 0.8, coefficient of static friction under good road conditions
g =  acceleration due to gravity, 32.2 ft/s²

Therefore
v = √(2*0.8*32.2*d) = 7.178√d

Test d = 65 ft.
v = 7.178√(65) = 57.87 ft/s = (57.87/88)*60 = 39.5 mph

Test d = 70 ft.
v = 7.178√(70) = 60.05 ft/s = 40.9 mph

To be safe, the lower speed of 39.5 mph is preferred.

Answer: 40 mph

An object with a mass m slides down a rough 37° inclined plane where the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.20. If the plane i
hodyreva [135]

Answer: 9.312 m/s

Explanation:

The friction force (opposite to the motion) is Fa = μ*m*g*cos(α) with μ = kinetic friction. The force that makes the motion is

F = m*g*sin(α).

The Newton's law gives:

F - Fa = m*a

m*g*sin(α) - μ*m*g*cos(α) = m*a

g*sin(α) - μ*g*cos(α) = a so a = 4.335 m/s²

It's a uniformly accelerated motion:

Space

S = 0.5*a*t²

10 = 0.5*a*t²

=> t = 2.148 s

Velocity

V = a*t = 9.312 m/s.

Substance X is placed in a container with substance Y. Both substances are fluids. Substance X initially sinks to the bottom of
Brut [27]

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Convection is a process in which heat transfers from a hotter substance to a colder substance.

As a result, the substance which is less dense will rise and the more denser substance will sink due to the influence of gravity.

Thus, we can conclude that in the given situation substance X will rise due to convection.

A pair of electrically charged objects attract each other with a force of 4 N when they are a distance of 3 m apart. If their ch
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

1 N

Explanation:

From coulomb's law,

The force of attraction between two charges is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the charges.

From the question,

Assuming the charges are the same in both case,

F ∝ /r²....................... Equation 1

Fr² = k

F'r'² = Fr²........................... Equation 2

Where F' = First Force, r'² = First distance, F = second force, r² = second distance.

make F the subject of the equation,

F = F'r'²/r².................... Equation 3

Given: F' = 4 N, r' = 3 m, r = 6 m

Substitute into equation 3

F = 4(3²)/6²

F = 36/36

F = 1 N
