Answer

2500 N

Explanation

If a satellite ways 10000 N at the surface of the earth it means there is zero distance between the rocket and the surface of the earth. However,when the satellite will start rising from the surface of the earth and the distance will reach equal to the radius of the earth, it means that distance is around double of the distance from the earth surface.

So when the distance has become double, the weight will become 1/4th.

                                    1/4 x 10000 N = 2500 N

So, 2500 N is the right answer

Hope it helps!

What are the differences between a light microscope and a scanning electron microscope?
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

There is a great difference between light and scanning electron microscope. The source of illumination is light rays in light microscope while in scanning electron microscope electrons are the source of illumination.

The resolving and magnification power of scanning electron microscope is much greater than that of a light microscope. The magnifying power of a light microscope is 1000X and of electron microscope is 10,00,000X.

In light microscope image is seen through the eyepiece while in scanning electron microscope it is seen on a fluorescent screen. Even small specimens up to 0.1 micrometers can be seen by scanning electron microscope which is not possible to see by light microscope.

A cell with 10 chromosomes undergoes mitosis. Indicate how many chromosomes would be expected in each of the daughter cells?
Marina86 [1]
Mitosis is the process by which a parent cell divides into two daughter cells that are genetically identical to each other and to the parent cell. The parent cell of 10 chromosomes will end up becoming two daughter cells that each have a copy of those 10 chromosomes.
Hope this helps! :)
