Hi there!
The period of an orbit can be found by:
T = Period (? s)
r = radius of orbit (6400000 m)
v = speed of the satellite (8000 m/s)
This is the same as the distance = vt equation. The total distance traveled by the satellite is the circumference of its circular orbit.
Let's plug in what we know and solve.
The first one, as the mass is higher so it accelerates more
The forces of gravity between two objects are smaller when the objects are farther apart.
Answer:
<h3>473.8 m/s; 473.8 m/s</h3>
Explanation:
Given the initial velocity U = 670m/s
Horizontal velocity Ux = Ucos theta
Vertical component of the cannon velocity Uy = Usin theta
Given
U = 670m/s
theta = 45°
horizontal component of the cannonball’s velocity = 670 cos 45
horizontal component of the cannonball’s velocity = 670(0.7071)
horizontal component of the cannonball’s velocity = 473.757m/s
Vertical component of the cannonball’s velocity = 670 sin 45
Vertical component of the cannonball’s velocity = 670 (0.7071)
Vertical component of the cannonball’s velocity = 473.757m/s
Hence pair of answer is 473.8 m/s; 473.8 m/s
