Why does the satellite not fall while revolving the earth

Answer:

Satellites don't fall from the sky because they are orbiting Earth. Even when satellites are thousands of miles away, Earth's gravity still tugs on them. Gravity--combined with the satellite's momentum from its launch into space--cause the satellite go into orbit above Earth, instead of falling back down to the ground.

1. Water boils at 100°C at sea level. If the water in this experiment did not boil at 100°C, what could be the reason?

umka2103 [35]

Answer:

It may not be at the sea level

Explanation:

The reason here is water only boils at sea level. This means that if you move water to a different height, say top of a mountain, the boiling temperature of water would change. This is due to the pressure drop at high place. The drop of pressure would make it harder to transform water liquid to gas, thus requiring more temperature.

A drop of oil of volume 10m it spread out on water to make a circular firm of radius 10m calculate the tickness of the firm

Effectus [21]

Answer:

h = 3.1 cm

Explanation:

Given that,

The volume of a oil drop, V = 10 m

Radius, r = 10 m

We need to find the thickness of the film. The film is in the form of a cylinder whose volume is as follows :

$V=\pi r^2 h\\\\h=\dfrac{V}{\pi r^2}\\\\h=\dfrac{10}{\pi \times 10^2}\\\\h=0.031\ m\\\\h=3.1\ cm$

So, the thickness of the film is equal to 3.1 cm.

A capacitor is charged until its stored energy is 7.54 J. A second capacitor is then connected to it in parallel. If the charge

Ivan

Answer:

2 J

Explanation:

A charged capacitor of capacitance $C_1$ with energy of 7.54 J, is connected in parallel with another capacitor $C_2$ , so the charge is equally distributed between them.

(a) The energy stored in the capacitor before it being connected to the other capacitor is:

$U_O=q_0^2/2C_1=7.54 J\\$

The energy stored in the electric field is the sum of the energies of the two capacitors:

$U=U_1+U_2\\U=q_1^2/2C_1+q_2^2/2C_2$

since the charge equally distributed, $q_1$ = $q_2$ = $q_o/2$ . and since they are connected in parallel the potential difference on both of them is the same :

$V_1=V_2\\q_1/C_1=q_2/C_2\\q_0/C_1=q_0/C_2\\C_1=C_2=C_3\\$

hence,

$U=q_0^2/8C+q_0^2/8C\\U=q_0^2/4C\\U=2J$
