a satellite maintains an orbit equidistant from the earth at all points along its orbital path hiw is the satellite affected by

the earths gravity

ANY closed orbit exists because of the centripetal force of gravity.
Without the force of gravity, the satellite would simply sail away
in a straight line.

The orbit you're describing happens to be a circular orbit, but it
doesn't have to be circular.

Does hot water always freeze faster than cold water
svp [43]
Yes because there is more temperature to cover in terms of hot water turning into cold and then solid water, and therefore hot water cools down faster, whereas cold water will take more time to become solid.

A 102 kg football player runs at a speed of 8 m/s to sack the quarterback. What is
leva [86]

The mass of the quarterback is 61.2 kg.

Explanation:

mass of the football player = m1 = 102 kg

mass of the quarterback = m2 = ?

velocity of the football player = v1 = 8 m/s

According to the law of conservation of momentum:

The total momentum of a system before and after the collision remains constant. Assuming the situation as an isolated system which is not affected by any external factors, we have:

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁+m₂)V

Here, we need to find m₂.

We assume that the quarterback is standing still when he is attacked by the football player so v₂ = 0 m/s

After the collision both of them fall to the ground with a velocity of 5 m/s so V = 5 m/s

102(8) + m2(0) = (102 + m2)(5)\\816 + 0 = (102 + m2)(5)\\816/5 = 102 + m2\\163.2 - 102 = m2\\m2 = 61.2 kg

Keywords: momentum, velocity, law of conservation of momentum

A 0.547 kg pizza is thrown straight up in the air. At a height of 2.30 m above the surface of the earth it has a speed of 5.00 m
natima [27]

Answer:

The total mechanical energy of the pizza crust is 19.2 J.

Explanation:

Mechanical energy is that which a body or a system obtains as a result of the speed of its movement or its specific position, and which is capable of producing mechanical work. Then:

Potential energy + kinetic energy = total mechanical energy

Kinetic energy is a form of energy. It is defined as the energy associated with bodies that are in motion and this energy depends on the mass and speed of the body.

Kinetic energy is defined as the amount of work necessary to accelerate a body of a certain mass and in a position of rest, until it reaches a certain speed.

Kinetic energy is represented by the following formula:

Ec = ½ *m*v²

Where Ec is kinetic energy, which is measured in Joules (J), m is mass measured in kilograms (kg), and v is velocity measured in meters over seconds (m / s).

In this case:

  • m=0.547 kg
  • v= 5 m/s

Replacing:

Ec = ½ *0.547 kg*(5 m/s)²

and solving you get:

Ec= 6.8375 J

On the other hand, potential energy is the energy that measures the ability of a system to perform work based on its position. In other words, this is the energy that a body has at a certain height above the ground.

Gravitational potential energy is the energy associated with the gravitational force. This will depend on the relative height of an object to some reference point, the mass, and the force of gravity. Then for an object with mass m, at height h, the expression applied to the gravitational energy of the object is:

Ep = m*g*h

Where Ep is the potential energy in joules (J), m is the mass in kilograms (kg) is h the height in meters (m) and g is the acceleration of fall in m / s² (approximately 9.81 m/s²)

In this case:

  • m= 0.547 kg
  • g= 9.81 m/s²
  • h= 2.30 m

Replacing

Ep= 0.547 kg *9.81 m/s²* 2.30 m

and solving you get:

Ep= 12.342 J

So:

Total mechanical energy= 12.342 J + 6.8375 J

Total mechanical energy= 19.1795 J≅ 19.2 J

<u><em>The total mechanical energy of the pizza crust is 19.2 J.</em></u>

A volumen constante un gas ejerce una presión de 880 mmHg a 20o Celsius dentro de una olla a presión ¿Qué temperatura habrá si e
jasenka [17]

Answer: Hence, the final temperature is 350 K

Explanation :

To calculate the final temperature of the system, we use the equation given by Gay-Lussac Law. This law states that pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.

Mathematically,

\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1\text{ and }T_1 are the initial pressure and temperature of the gas.

P_2\text{ and }T_2 are the final pressure and temperature of the gas.

We are given:

P_1=880mmHg\\T_1=20^0C=(20+273)K=293K\\P_2=1050mmHg\\T_2=?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\frac{880mmHg}{293K}=\frac{1050mmHg}{T_2}\\\\T_2=350K

Hence, the final temperature is 350 K
