katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

d. conduction

Explanation:

Conduction involves the transfer of electric charge or thermal energy due to the movement of particles. When the conduction relates to electric charge, it is known as electrical conduction while when it relates to thermal energy, it is known as heat conduction.

In the process of heat conduction, thermal energy is usually transferred from fast moving particles to slow moving particles during the collision of these particles. Also, thermal energy is typically transferred between objects that has different degrees of temperature and materials (particles) that are directly in contact with each other but differ in their ability to accept or give up electrons.

Any material or object that allow the conduction (transfer) of electric charge or thermal energy is generally referred to as a conductor. Conductors include metal, steel, aluminum, copper, frying pan, pot, spoon etc.

In conclusion, conduction typically involves the transfer of heat energy by direct contact between two or more conductors such as a pot and electric cooker.

Answer:

An electric bell is placed inside a transparent glass jar. The bell can be turned on and off using a switch on the outside of the jar. A vacuum is created inside the jar by sucking out the air. Then the bell is rung using the switch. What will we see and hear?

We’ll see the bell move, but we won’t hear it ring.

We won’t see the bell move, but we’ll hear it ring.

We’ll see the bell move and hear it ring.

We won’t see the bell move or hear it ring.

We’ll see the sound waves exit the vacuum pump.

Explanation:

so, the answer to the question is

We'll see the bell move, but we won’t hear it ring.

A satellite is in a circular orbit around Mars, which has a mass M = 6.40 × 1023 kg and radius R = 3.40 ×106 m.

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

a) The orbital speed of a satellite with a orbital radius R (in meters) will have an orbital speed of approximately $\displaystyle \sqrt\frac{4.27 \times 10^{13}}{R}\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}$ .

b) Again, if the orbital radius R is in meters, the orbital period of the satellite would be approximately $\displaystyle 9.62 \times 10^{-7}\, R^{3/2}\; \rm s$ .

c) The orbital radius required would be approximately $\rm 2.04 \times 10^7\; m$ .

d) The escape velocity from the surface of that planet would be approximately $\rm 5.01\times 10^3\; m \cdot s^{-1}$ .

Explanation:

Since the orbit of this satellite is circular, it is undergoing a centripetal motion. The planet's gravitational attraction on the satellite would supply this centripetal force.

The magnitude of gravity between two point or spherical mass is equal to:

$\displaystyle \frac{G \cdot M \cdot m}{r^{2}}$ ,

where

$G$ is the constant of universal gravitation.
$M$ is the mass of the first mass. (In this case, let $M$ be the mass of the planet.)
$m$ is the mass of the second mass. (In this case, let $m$ be the mass of the satellite.)
$r$ is the distance between the center of mass of these two objects.

On the other hand, the net force on an object in a centripetal motion should be:

$\displaystyle \frac{m \cdot v^{2}}{r}$ ,

where

$m$ is the mass of the object (in this case, that's the mass of the satellite.)
$v$ is the orbital speed of the satellite.
$r$ is the radius of the circular orbit.

Assume that gravitational force is the only force on the satellite. The net force should be equal to the planet's gravitational attraction on the satellite. Equate the two expressions and solve for $v$ :

$\displaystyle \frac{G \cdot M \cdot m}{r^{2}} = \frac{m \cdot v^{2}}{r}$ .

$\displaystyle v^2 = \frac{G \cdot M}{r}$ .

$\displaystyle v = \sqrt{\frac{G \cdot M}{r}}$ .

Take $G \approx 6.67 \times \rm 10^{-11} \; m^3 \cdot kg^{-1} \cdot s^{-2}$ , Simplify the expression $v$ :

$\begin{aligned} v &= \sqrt{\frac{G \cdot M}{r}} \cr &= \sqrt{\frac{6.67 \times \rm 10^{-11} \times 6.40 \times 10^{23}}{r}} \cr &\approx \sqrt{\frac{4.27 \times 10^{13}}{r}} \; \rm m \cdot s^{-1} \end{aligned}$ .

Since the orbit is a circle of radius $R$ , the distance traveled in one period would be equal to the circumference of that circle, $2 \pi R$ .

Divide distance with speed to find the time required.

$\begin{aligned} t &= \frac{s}{v} \cr &= 2 \pi R}\left/\sqrt{\frac{G \cdot M}{R}} \; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}\right. \cr &= \frac{2\pi R^{3/2}}{\sqrt{G \cdot M}} \cr &\approx 9.62 \times 10^{-7}\, R^{3/2}\; \rm s\end{aligned}$ .

Convert $24.6\; \rm \text{hours}$ to seconds:

$24.6 \times 3600 = 88560\; \rm s$

Solve the equation for $R$ :

$9.62 \times 10^{-7}\, R^{3/2}= 88560$ .

$R \approx 2.04 \times 10^7\; \rm m$ .

If an object is at its escape speed, its kinetic energy (KE) plus its gravitational potential energy (GPE) should be equal to zero.

$\displaystyle \text{GPE} = -\frac{G \cdot M \cdot m}{r}$ (Note the minus sign in front of the fraction. GPE should always be negative or zero.)

$\displaystyle \text{KE} = \frac{1}{2} \, m \cdot v^{2}$ .

Solve for $v$ . The value of $m$ shouldn't matter, for it would be eliminated from both sides of the equation.

$\displaystyle -\frac{G \cdot M \cdot m}{r} + \frac{1}{2} \, m \cdot v^{2}= 0$ .

$\displaystyle v = \sqrt{\frac{2\, G \cdot M}{R}} \approx 5.01\times 10^{3}\; \rm m\cdot s^{-1}$ .
