In order for a satellite to move in a stable circular orbit of radius 6588km at a constant speed, its centripetal acceleration m

ust be inversely proportional to the square of the radius r of the orbit. What is the speed of the satellite and the time required to complete one orbit? The universal gravitational constant is 6.67259e-11 Nm^2/kg^2 and the mass of the earth is 5.98e24kg.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius in which the satellite orbits, r = 6588 km

Solution,

The centripetal force acting on the satellite is balanced by the gravitational force acting between earth and the satellite. Its expression can be written by :

\dfrac{GmM}{r^2}=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{r}}, M is the mass of earth

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{6.67259\times 10^{-11}\times 5.98\times 10^{24}}{6588\times 10^3}}

v = 7782.53 m/s

Let t is the time required to complete one orbit. It can be calculated as :

t=\dfrac{d}{v}

t=\dfrac{2\pi r}{v}

t=\dfrac{2\pi \times 6588\times 10^3}{7782.53}

t = 5318.78 seconds

or

t = 1.47 hour

Therefore, this is the required solution.

Evgen [1.6K]
The loudness or sound intensity of the roaring truck engine is inversely proportional to the square of the distance. it follows the law of squares that is 
r1^2 / r2^2 = L2/L1
8^2 / 4^2 = L2 / 100 dB
L2 =  400 dB

The answer to this problem is 400 dB increased frim 100 dB.

Q.) Miscellaneous conversations. a) mass=120*10^8 g (Convert this value in mg and kg Write in standard form after converting) b)
aleksley [76]

Answer:

a. Convert  120 × 10⁸ g to i mg = 1.2 × 10¹³ mg ii. to g = 1.2 × 10⁷ kg

b. Convert 200000 × 10³ m to i. micrometers = 0.2 × 10³ μm  ii. to cm = 2 × 10⁶ cm iii. to km = 2 × 10⁵ km

Explanation:

a. i. To convert the mass = 120 × 10⁸ g to mg, We know that 1000 mg = 10³ mg = 1 g, Since we are converting to mg, 120 × 10⁸ g = 120 × 10⁸ × 1g = 120 × 10⁸ × 10³ mg = 120 × 10¹¹ mg = 1.2 × 10² × 10¹¹ mg = 1.2 × 10¹³ mg

ii. To convert the mass = 120 × 10⁸ g to kg, We know that 1000 g = 10³ g = 1 kg, 1 g = 10⁻³ kg. Since we are converting to kg, 120 × 10⁸ g = 120 × 10⁸ × 1g = 120 × 10⁸ × 10⁻³ kg = 120 × 10⁵ kg = 1.2 × 10² × 10⁵ kg = 1.2 × 10⁷ kg

b. i.To convert the length = 200000 × 10³ m to micrometers, We know that 1/1000000 μm = 10⁻⁶ mg = 1 m, Since we are converting to micrometers, μm, 200000 × 10³ m = 200000 × 10³ × 1 m = 200000 × 10³ ×  1/1000000 μm = 200000/1000000 × 10³ μm = 0.2 × 10³ μm

ii. To convert the length = 200000 × 10³ m to cm, We know that 100 cm = 10² cm = 1 m, 1 m = 10⁻² cm = 1/100 cm. Since we are converting to cm, 200000 × 10³ m = 200000 × 10³ × 1 m = 200000 × 10³ × 1/100 cm = 200000/100 × 10³ cm = 2000 × 10³ cm  = 2 × 10³ × 10³ cm = 2 × 10⁶ cm

iii. To convert the length = 200000 × 10³ m to km, We know that 1000 m = 10³ m = 1 km, 1 m = 10⁻³ km = 1/1000 km Since we are converting to km, 200000 × 10³ m = 200000 × 10³ × 1 m = 200000 × 10³ ×  1/1000 km = 200000/1000 × 10³ km = 200 × 10³ km = 2 × 10² × 10³ km = 2 × 10⁵ km

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

0.17214 m

Explanation:

P = Pressure difference between inside and outside the chest cavity = 0.05 atm

\rho = Density of fresh water = 1000 kg/m³

\rho_d = Density of water in the Dead Sea= 1500 kg/m³

h = Height

In fresh water

P=\rho gh_1\\\Rightarrow h_1=\dfrac{P}{\rho g}\\\Rightarrow h_1=\dfrac{0.05\times 101325}{1000\times 9.81}\\\Rightarrow h_1=0.51643\ m

In dead sea

P=\rho_d gh_2\\\Rightarrow h_2=\dfrac{P}{\rho_d g}\\\Rightarrow h_2=\dfrac{0.05\times 101325}{1500\times 9.81}\\\Rightarrow h_2=0.34429\ m

The difference in height is 0.51643-0.34429 = 0.17214 m
