The distance of the orbiting object to Earth will give Hannah the radius which she needs.

The correct answer is:

the distance of the orbiting object to Earth.

In fact, we know that the gravitational force that keeps the object in circular motion around the Earth is equal to the centripetal force, so we can write:

G\frac{Mm}{r^2}=m\frac{v^2}{r}

If we re-arrange the equation, we find an expression for the tangential speed of the object:

v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}

and we see that it depends on 3 quantities: G, M (the mass of the Earth) and r (the distance of the object from the Earth).

A car traveling at 37m/s starts to decelerate steadily. It comes to a complete stop in 15 seconds. What is it’s acceleration
LuckyWell [14K]

<u>Answer</u>

The acceleration is

a=-2.5ms^{-2} to the nearest tenth

<u>Explanation</u>

Since the car was travelling at 37ms^{-1} before it starts to decelerate, the initial velocity is

u=37ms^{-1}.

The final velocity is v=0ms^{-1}, because the car came to a stop.

The time taken is t=15s.

Using the Newton's equation of linear motion,

v=u +at, we find the acceleration by substituting the known values.


This implies that,

0=37 +a(15)

This gives us,

0-37=15a


\Rightarrow -37=15a


We divide both sides by 15 to get,

a=-\frac{37}{15}ms^{-2}

or

a=-2.46667ms^{-2}

Two neutral metal spheres on wood stands are touching. A negatively charged rod is held directly above the top of the left spher
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

The right sphere is negatively charged, the left sphere is charged positively.

Explanation:

When a negatively charged rod is held above the top of left sphere, the rod will attract positive charges and repel negative charges. As the sphere are initially touching each other so positive charges from the both spheres will moves toward the rod. When we separate the spheres positive charges from right sphere have already moved toward the rod i.e. left sphere, creating a deficiency of positive charges in the right sphere and excessiveness of positive charges in left sphere , hence the right sphere will remain negatively charged and left sphere will remain positively charged.
