Answer:

a) F = 660.576\,N, b) a_{c} = 6.953\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}, c) v \approx 7255.423\,\frac{m}{s}, \omega = 9.583\times 10^{-4}\,\frac{rad}{s}, d) T \approx 1.821\,h

Explanation:

a) The gravitational force exerted by the Earth on the satellite is:

F = G\cdot \frac{m\cdot M}{r^{2}}

F = \left(6.674\times 10^{-11}\,\frac{m^{3}}{kg\cdot s^{2}} \right)\cdot \frac{(95\,kg)\cdot (5.972\times 10^{24}\,kg)}{(7.571\times 10^{6}\,m)^{2}}

F = 660.576\,N

b) The centripetal acceleration of the satellite is:

a_{c} = \frac{660.576\,N}{95\,kg}

a_{c} = 6.953\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}

c) The speed of the satellite is:

v = \sqrt{a_{c}\cdot R}

v = \sqrt{\left(6.953\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (7.571\times 10^{6}\,m)}

v \approx 7255.423\,\frac{m}{s}

Likewise, the angular speed is:

\omega = \frac{7255.423\,\frac{m}{s} }{7.571\times 10^{6}\,m}

\omega = 9.583\times 10^{-4}\,\frac{rad}{s}

d) The period of the satellite's rotation around the Earth is:

T = \frac{2\pi}{\left(9.583\times 10^{-4}\,\frac{rad}{s} \right)} \cdot \left(\frac{1\,hour}{3600\,s} \right)

T \approx 1.821\,h

A ball is thrown straight down with a speed of Va2.00 from a building 40.00 meters high. How much S time passes before the ball
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

Option C is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Considering vertical motion of ball:-

Initial velocity, u =  2 m/s

Acceleration , a = 9.81 m/s²

Displacement, s = 40 m

We have equation of motion s= ut + 0.5 at²

Substituting

   s= ut + 0.5 at²

    40 = 2 x t + 0.5 x 9.81 x t²

   4.9t²  + 2t - 40 = 0

   t = 2.66 s   or t = -3.06 s

So, time is 2.66 s.

Option C is the correct answer.

A wood block, after being given a starting push, slides down a ramp at a constant speed. what is the angle of the ramp above hor
Stells [14]

The solution for the problem is:

Constant speed means Fnet = 0. 
Let m = mass of wood block and Θ = angle of ramp; then if µk = 0.35 …

The computation would be:


Fnet = 0 = mg (sin Θ) - (µk) (mg) (cos Θ) 
mg (sin Θ) = µk (mg) (cos Θ) 
µk = tan Θ 
Θ = arctan(µk)

= arctan (0.35)

≈ 19.3°

We need to find the launch velocity of our new marble launcher. we know that it will launch a 25g marble to a distance of 73 cm,
White raven [17]

The launch velocity of the marble launcher is 34.65 m/s

Given that the launch velocity of marble launcher, launches a 25g marble to a distance of 73 cm (0.73 m) and the marble roll up to 6.2 meters before stopping. The launch height is 20 cm (0.2 m).

The time for landing can be calculated by the second equation of motion formula:

h = ut + \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

Let u = 0

0.2 = 0×t + \frac{1}{2} × 9.8 × t^{2}

t^{2} = \frac{0.2}{4.9}

t^{2} = 0.04

t = 0.2s

Now, the launch velocity of the marble launcher can be calculated by:

Speed = Distance / Time

Speed = \frac{0.73 + 6.3}{0.2}

Speed = \frac{6.93}{0.2}

Speed = 34.65 m/s

Therefore, the launch velocity of the marble launcher is 34.65 m/s
