Micro welds are formed where bumps from two surfaces come into contact.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The surface of all existing objects or elements, have some bumps and dips. Whenever the surfaces of two different bodies with bumps and dips come into contact with each other, sticking occur.

This causes the production of micro welds between the two surfaces that inhibit the smooth motion. These micro welds create a static force that opposes the smooth motion between the surfaces. This is called “friction”.

This friction force can be stopped only when it can either be dominated with the equal opposite force or inhibited with lubricating agents that reduce its effect on the surfaces of the two respective objects.

A satellite has a mass of 5832 kg and is in a circular orbit 4.13 × 105 m above the surface of a planet. The period of the orbit
elena55 [62]

Answer:

W = 28226.88 N

Explanation:

Given,

Mass of the satellite, m = 5832 Kg

Height of the orbiting satellite from the surface, h = 4.13 x 10⁵ m

The time period of the orbit, T = 1.9 h

                                            = 6840 s

The radius of the planet, R = 4.38 x 10⁶ m

The time period of the satellite is given by the formula

                             T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{(R+h)^{3} }{R^{2} g} }  second

Squaring the terms and solving it for 'g'

                             g = 4 π² \frac{(R+h)^{3} }{R^{2}T^{2}  }   m/s²

Substituting the values in the above equation

                   g = 4 π² \frac{(4.38X10^6+4.13X10^5)^{3} }{(4.38X10^6)^{2}X6840^{2}}  

                                    g = 4.84 m/s²      

Therefore, the weight

                                     w = m x g   newton

                                         = 5832 Kg x 4.84 m/s²

                                         = 28226.88 N

Hence, the weight of the satellite at the surface, W = 28226.88 N
