Answer:

T = (27 da * 24 hr/da + 7 hr + 43 min/60 min/hr) * 3600 sec/hr = 2.36 * 10E6 sec       period of moon in sec

C = v t  = 2 pi R        circumference of orbit where v is orbital speed

ac (centripetal acceleration) =  v^2 / R = v^2 / (v t / 2 pi) = 2 pi v / t

ac = 2 pi * 1.03 * 10E3 m/s / 2.36 * 10E6 sec = 2.74 * 10E-3 m /s^2

Describe a situation when you might travel at a high velocity bit with low acceleration
iren [92.7K]

I am sitting in my seat.
I am listening to my mp3 and reading my book.
My eyes are getting heavy.  They start to close.
I try to stay awake, but it's no use.
I am so warm and comfortable and sleepy,
and I have just finished my dinner.
Finally I can't help it.  Resistance is futile.
I give up, and fall deep asleep.
My head rests back against my soft, comfy seat.

My seat is in row 26 on the airplane I'm flying in
to visit my grandmother on the coast.
We are cruising at 560 miles an hour, bearing 280°,
at flight level 320 .
The temperature outside my window is  -60°F .

What happens if the air pressure in your throat and outside body is less than the air pressure in your middle ear when you swall
andrezito [222]

Answer:

When the air pressure in the throat and outside the body is less than the air pressure in the middle ear, barotrauma occurs.

Explanation:

Ear barotrauma is a medical condition that describes discomfort in the ear which is caused by pressure differences in the inner and outer ear drum.

Usually, the air pressure in the middle ear is the same as the air pressure in the throat and outside the body.

When we swallow, the eustachian tube opens up and air flows out of and into the middle ear, this balances the pressure. But if the eustachian tube is blocked, the air pressure in the throat and outer body become different from the air pressure in the middle ear.
