Answer:

Speed of the satellite V = 6.991 × 10³ m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Force F = 3,000N

Mass of  satellite m = 500 kg

Mass of earth M = 5.97 × 10²⁴

Gravitational force G = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹

Find:

Speed of the satellite.

Computation:

Radius r = √[GMm / F]

Radius r = √[(6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ )(5.97 × 10²⁴)(500) / (3,000)

Radius r = 8.146 × 10⁶ m

Speed of the satellite V = √rF / m

Speed of the satellite V = √(8.146 × 10⁶)(3,000) / 500

Speed of the satellite V = 6.991 × 10³ m/s

How frequently do most coastal areas experience high tides?
Alex777 [14]

It doesn't matter where you are.  "Tides" happen twice (hi - lo - hi - lo) in about 24 hours and 50 minutes.  Anywhere.

If it doesn't do two complete cycles in 24 hours 50 minutes, then it's not tide.

What distance should be used to pattern a shotgun hunter ed?
Murljashka [212]
I think the distance that should be used is the distance that one expects to be from the game you are hunting. Before taking a shotgun for a gobbler or even for ducks or other animals, you need to see how your gun performs by patterning it at various ranges with the load you want to use.
