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

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.

Jim is driving a 2268-kg pickup truck at 22 m/s and releases his foot from the accelerator pedal. The car eventually stops due t
shutvik [7]

Answer:

610 meters.

Explanation:

Because Jim released the accelerator, the truck started to slow down, so the friction force will eventually stop the truck.

the kinetic energy of the truck just after Jim released the pedal is:

E_k=\frac{1}{2}*m*v^2\\E_k=\frac{1}{2}*2268*(22)^2=548856J

The work done by the friction force is given by:

W_f=F_s*d\\\\d=\frac{548856J}{900N}\\\\d=610m

A car drives for 30 km with a speed of 30m/s. How much time does it take the car to travel this distance?
Artist 52 [7]

                   Time  =  (distance)  /  (speed)

                           =  (30 km)  /  (30 m/s)

                           =  (30,000 m)  /  (30 m/s)

                           =  (30,000 / 30)  sec

                           =      1,000 seconds

                           =      16 minutes  40 seconds

Give an example of hypothesis for an experiment and then identify its dependent and independent variables. Write all the steps o
e-lub [12.9K]
An example of a hypothesis for an experiment might be: “A basketball will bounce higher if there is more air it”

Step one would be to make an observation... “hey, my b-ball doesn’t have much air in it, and it isn’t bouncing ver high”

Step two is to form your hypothesis: “A basketball will bounce higher if there is more air it”

Step three is to test your hypothesis: maybe you want to drop the ball from a certain height, deflate it by some amount and then drop it from that same height again, and record how high the ball bounced each time.


Here the independent variable is how much air is in the basketball (what you want to change) and the dependent variable is how high the b-ball will bounce (what will change as a result of the independent variable)

Step four is to record all of your results and step five is to analyze that data. Does your data support your hypothesis? Why or why not?

You should only test one variable at a time because it is easier to tell why the results are how they are; you only have one cause.

Hope this helps!
