For a satellite of mass mS in a circular orbit of radius rS around the Earth, determine its kinetic energy, K . Express your ans
agasfer [191]

Since it is asking you to find the kinetic energy in relation to the mass, radius, mechanical energy (total energy), and constants, you will need to setup an equation first to "find" the Mechanical Energy, so that we can then solve for the kinetic energy, as from my experience with high school physics, there is only the graviational potential energy equation and force in relation to celestial bodies.

Knowing the ME is the total energy, we add up the energies of the system. Since it is being influenced by the Earth, as per the problem stating the satellite has circular orbit around the Earth, we know there is gravitational potential. Since it is orbiting, we can assume some type of velocity. Nothing else that we need to worry about should be occuring at this level of physics, leaving you with

ME= Ug+K

from here we solve for K, as plugging in could get confusing and messy at the moment.

ME-Ug=K

now using the equations presumably given in class, if not then using this equation, we can find the Ug

Ug=(-(Gm*M)/r)     note that M is the mass of the Earth and m is the satellite

this should give us

ME-(-(GmM)/r)=K

since there is a negative being subracted, we can change that to

ME+(GmM)/r=K

I believe this should be fine, as the Earth's mass is constant, but if not, then all you need to figure left is how to get rid of the M in the equation, as the rest of the terms and constants are for sure within the requirements.

A hockey puck slides 55.0 m along the length of the rink in just 1.25 s. The slight friction between the puck and the ice provid
topjm [15]

Answer:

44.8 m/s

Explanation:

Use the Initial Speed Formula:

InS = 2(d/t) - Final Speed

InS = 2(55/1,25) - 43.2

InS = 2.44 - 43,2

InS = 88 - 43,2

InS = 44.8 m/s

How are the land area and the oceans affected during an ice age
amm1812
The land was frozen everywhere and a part of the ocean froze over to create a bridge between two countries. Some people may disagree with me over the ice bridge, though.
