Refer to the diagram shown below.
Given:
R = 6.37 x 10⁶ m, the radius of the earth
h = 3.58 x 10⁷ m, the height of the satellite above the earth's surface.
Therefore
R + h = 4.217 x 10⁷ m
In geosynchronous orbit, the period of rotation is 1 day.
Therefore the period is
T = (24 h)*(60 min/h)*(60 s/min) = 86400 s
The angular velocity is
ω = (2π rad)/(86400 s) = 7.2722 x 10⁻⁵ rad/s
Part (a)
The tangential speed is
v = (R+h)*ω
= (4.217 x 10⁷ m)*(7.2722 x 10⁻⁵ rad/s)
= 3066.7 m/s
= 3.067 km/s
Part (b)
The centripetal acceleration is
a = v²/(R+h)
= (3066.7 m/s)²/(4.217 x 10⁷ m)
= 0.223 m/s²
Answers:
(a) The speed is 3.067 km/s
(b) The acceleration is 0.223 m/s²

Answer:
(a) Heat transfer to the environment is: 1 MJ and (b) The efficiency of the engine is: 41.5%
Explanation:
Using the formula that relate heat and work from the thermodynamic theory as:
solving to Q_out we get:
this is the heat out of the cycle or engine, so it will be heat transfer to the environment. The thermal efficiency of a Carnot cycle gives us:
where T_Low is the lowest cycle temperature and T_High the highest, we need to remember that a Carnot cycle depends only on the absolute temperatures, if you remember the convertion of K=°C+273.15 so T_Low=150+273.15=423.15 K and T_High=450+273.15=723.15K and replacing the values in the equation we get:
Answer:
Δv = 12 m/s, but we are not given the direction, so there are really an infinite number of potential solutions.
Maximum initial speed is 40.6 m/s
Minimum initial speed is 16.6 m/s
Explanation:
Assume this is a NET impulse so we can ignore friction.
An impulse results in a change of momentum
The impulse applied was
p = Ft = 1400(6.0) = 8400 N•s
p = mΔv
Δv = 8400 / 700 = 12 m/s
If the impulse was applied in the direction the car was already moving, the initial velocity was
vi = 28.6 - 12 = 16.6 m/s
if the impulse was applied in the direction opposite of the original velocity, the initial velocity was
vi = 28.6 + 12 = 40.6 m/s
Other angles of Net force would result in various initial velocities.
