Answer:
a) h = 13,205.4 m
b) r_f = 2.12 106 m
c) e% = 0.68%
Explanation:
a) This is an exercise we are asked to use energy conservation,
Starting point. On the surface of Mimas
Em₀ = K = ½ m v²
Final point. Where the ball stops
= U = m g h
Em₀ = Em_{f}
½ m v² = m g h
h = ½ v² / g
let's calculate
h = ½ 41² / 0.0636
h = 13,205.4 m
b) For this part we are asked to use the law of universal gravitation, write the energy
starting point. Satellite surface
Em₀ = K + U = ½ m v² - GmM / r_o
final point. Where the ball stops
= U = - G mM / r_f
Em₀ = Em_{f}
½ m v² - G m M / r_o = - G mM / r_f
In this case all distances are measured from the center of the satellite
1 / rf = 1 / GM (-½ v² + G M / r_o)
let's calculate
1 / rf = 1 / (6.67 10⁻¹¹ 3.75 10¹⁹) (- ½ 41 2 + 6.67 10⁻¹¹ 3.75 10¹⁹ / 1.98 105)
1 / r_f = 3,998 10⁻¹¹(-840.5 + 12.63 10³)
1 / r_f = 4,714 10⁻⁷
r_f = 1 / 4,715 10⁻⁷
r_f = 2.12 106 m
to measure this distance from the satellite surface
r_f ’= r_f - r_o
r_f ’= 2.12 106 - 1.98 105
r_f ’= 1,922 106 m
c) the percentage difference is
e% = 13 205.4 / 1,922 106 100
e% = 0.68%
The estimate of part a is a little low
Answer:
Electromagnetic waves
Explanation:
Electromagnetic waves are waves that consist of oscillating electric and magnetic fields, that oscillate perpendicularly to each other and perpendicularly to the direction of propagation of the wave (for such a reason, these waves are also called transverse waves).
Electromagnetic waves always travel in a vacuum at the same speed, called speed of light:
and they are classified into 7 different types, according to their frequency. From lowest to highest frequency, we have:
Radio waves
Microwaves
Infrared
Visible light
Ultraviolet
X-rays
Gamma rays
Therefore, gamma rays, x-rays, visible light and radio waves are all types of electromagnetic waves with different frequencies.
