Explanation : We know that two forces acting on the satellite.

The speed of the satellite and the force of the gravity on the satellite then the result , the satellite moves around the earth in a circular motion.

A satellite to move tangentially to a circular path, while revolving around the circular path because the centripetal force is acting on it.

So, we can say gravity is responsible for the motion of the satellite in a circular path.

Answer: tangential velocity


The tangential velocity is the velocity the body presents at a given moment of time when describing a circular movement, taking into account its direction, as well as the radius by which it is traveling in a particular fraction of its trajectory.

To calculate tangential velocity, it is possible to take the <u>angular velocity</u> as a reference, nevertheless it is necessary to understand that it can be <u>constant</u>, while the tangential velocity can vary at each step, given the alterations of the path.

This is possible because movement of a satellite around the planet Earth is a good example of uniform circular motion, which is characterized by the movement of a body describing a circumference of a given radius with constant speed.

Therefore in this movement the velocity has a constant magnitude, but its direction varies continuously.

The latent heat of fusion for Aluminium is 3.97 x 105. How much energy would be required to melt 0.75 kg of it?
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

E = 2.9775\times10^5 J

Explanation:

Given:  The latent heat of fusion for Aluminum is L = 3.97\times10^5  J/Kg

mass to be malted m = 0.75 Kg

Energy require to melt E = mL

E = 3.97\times10^5\times0.75 = 2.9775\times10^5 J

Therefore, energy required to melt 0.75 Kg aluminum

E = 2.9775\times10^5 J

mario62 [17]

The answer is:

d) the sound originates from a vibration.

The explanation:

The sound waves are generated by a sound source, such as the vibrating diaphragm of a stereo speaker. The sound source creates vibrations in the surrounding medium. As the source continues to vibrate the medium, the vibrations propagate away from the source at the speed of sound, thus forming the sound wave.

The temperature -273°C is —.
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

-273°C = Absolute zero

Explanation:

Average Kinetic energy of particles in matter refers to the temperature of matter. This value is not arbitrary zero temperature. It explains the lowest kinetic energy of the particles in matter.
