A satellite of mass m is moving in a circular orbit around the earth at a constant speed v and at an altitude h above the earth'

s surface.a. find the speed of a satellite orbiting the earth 1000 km above its surface.the radius of the earth rearth = 6371 km is and its mass is mearth = 5.98x1024 kg .

The satellite executes a rotation motion around the earth, because Earth's force of attraction plays the role of centripetal force:

Fa=Fcp=>k*Mp*m/(Rp+r)²=mv²/(Rp+r)=>v=√(k*Mp/(Rp+r))=√(6.67*10⁻¹¹*5.98*10²⁴/(6371*10³+1000*10³))=√(39.88*10¹³/(7371*10³))=√(5.41*10⁷)=7355.53 m/s

A sailboat weighing 980 lb with its occupants is running downwind at 8 mi/h when its spinnaker is raised to increase its speed.
Effectus [21]

Answer:

78.498N

Explanation:

The Net force provided by the spinnaker can be obtained from Newton's second law of motion as follows;

F=\frac{m(v-u)}{t}................(1)

where m is the mass, v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity and t is the time interval for which the force acted.

Given;

m =980lb

v = 12mi/h

u =8mi/hr

t = 10s.

It is important to convert all quantities to their SI units where necessary, so we do that as follows;

1lb = 0.45kg,

hence 980lb = 980 x 0.45kg = 441kg.

1mile = 1609.34m

1hour = 3600s,

therefore;

8mi/h=\frac{8*1609.34m}{3600s}=3.58m/s

12mi/h=\frac{12*1609.34m}{3600s}=5.36m/s

Substituting all values into equation (1), we obtain the following;

F=\frac{441(5.36-3.58)}{10}\\F=\frac{441*1.78}{10}\\F=\frac{784.98}{10}\\F=78.498N

L 10. A car with a mass of 2,000 kilograms is moving around a circular curve at a uniform velocity of 25 meters per second. The
garri49 [273]
Centripetal Force, F = mv²/r

Where m = mass in kg, v = velocity in m/s and r = radius of curvature in m.

Centripetal Force, F = 2000 * 25² / 80.    Use your calculator.

                           F = 15 625 N.

In designing buildings to be erected in an area prone to earthquakes, what are the things that you need to consider?
il63 [147K]

Answer:

In an earthquake prone area, the things that are needed to be considered for the buildings to stand constant and no cause of damages are as follows-

  • The foundation of the building must be made strong, using large amount of concretes so that it can hold the entire load of the building.
  • The pillars of the buildings are also should be firmed, rigid, strong and thick.
  • The buildings are needed to be construct in such a way that during any seismic event, the forces can be redistributed easily through the body of the building without causing any damage.
  • The buildings must be overall comprised of holding high strength and stiffness.

How can a large construction project impact water quality, supply or flow?
Korolek [52]

Answer:

Construction also impacts the community’s water quality. During the construction phase, pollutants can end up in the water supply. Once construction is over, the water quality can still be a problem due to an increased demand for water, as well as increased pollution due to additional residents.
