Answer:

person is accelerating downwards

Explanation:

We are told that the force of the person standing on the elevator is 800 N acting downwards.

We are also told that the upward force of the elevator on the person is 600 Newtons.

This means that Upward force is lesser than downward force and thus the person is accelerating downwards

It depends on the type of interference.
For constructive interference, add the amplitudes to get |35 + 41| = 76 units.
For destructive, subtract them |35 - 41| = 6 units

A geosynchronous Earth satellite is one that has an orbital period of precisely 1 day. Such orbits are useful for communication

koban [17]

Answer:

r = 4.24x10⁴ km.

Explanation:

To find the radius of such an orbit we need to use Kepler's third law:

$\frac{T_{1}^{2}}{T_{2}^{2}} = \frac{r_{1}^{3}}{r_{2}^{3}}$

<em>where T₁: is the orbital period of the geosynchronous Earth satellite = 1 d, T₂: is the orbital period of the moon = 0.07481 y, r₁: is the radius of such an orbit and r₂: is the orbital radius of the moon = 3.84x10⁵ km. </em>

From equation (1), r₁ is:

$r_{1} = r_{2} \sqrt[3] {(\frac{T_{1}}{T_{2}})^{2}}$
