The acceleration due to gravity is g at the earth's surface. an earth satellite is orbiting at a distance from the earth's surfa

ce equal to one earth radius. at this location, what is the acceleration due to gravity

The acceleration due to gravity is g/4

The acceleration above the earth surface is given by the relation

g^'=gr^2/〖(h+r)〗^2

Since the satellite orbits the earth in a orbit of radius equal to earth radius, therefore

g^'=(gr^2)/〖(r+r)〗^2 =g/4

Thus the acceleration due to gravity on the satellite is g/4.

Which scenario is an application of Newtons Second Law of Motion?
svlad2 [7]
D would be the answer because The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.

The position of a dragonfly that is flying parallel to the ground is given as a function of time by r⃗ =[2.90m+(0.0900m/s2)t2]i^
Arlecino [84]

The solution for this problem is:

 
r = [(2.90 + 0.0900t²) i - 0.0150t³ j] m/s² 
this is for t in seconds and r in meters 

v = dr/dt = [0.180t i - 0.0450t² j] m/s² 

tan(-36.0º) = -0.0450t² / 0.180t 
0.7265 = 0.25t 
t = 2.91 s is the velocity vector of the insect

Water at the top of a slope has potential energy. true or false
ASHA 777 [7]
<span>The statement is TRUE. Water does have potential energy at the top of a slope. The reason why is that potential energy is energy possessed by a body based on its position relative to a zero point. In this case, water at the top of the slope is at an elevation above ground (zero point). The energy is not kinetic (moving) energy since the water is not moving.</span>

A horizontal force of 200 N is applied to move a 55 kg television set across a 10 m level surface. What is the work done by the
vivado [14]

Answer:

The work done is "2000 J".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Force,

F = 200 N

Mass,

m = 55 kg

Displacement,

d = 10 m

Now,

The work done will be:

⇒  Work \ done= Force\times displacement

On substituting the given values, we get

⇒                     =200\times 10

⇒                     =2000 \ J
