Physics
1 answer:
Pie2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

a. TRUE

Explanation:

When a satellite is launched to orbit around earth, it has to produce its own artificial gravity by performing rotations. The frequency of this rotation is given by the following formula:

f = √[ac/4πR²]

where,

f = frequency

ac = centripetal acceleration

R = Radius of the satellite

Therefore, it is clear from this formula that the frequency of rotation of the satellite is independent of its height above the surface of earth. So, the correct option is:

<u>a. TRUE</u>

Two bodies of mass m₁ &amp; m₂ are moving with the same velocity 'v' K.E. will be greater for??
boyakko [2]

Answer:

the one with a higher mass

Explanation:

The body with more mass will have the greater kinetic energy of the two.

Kinetic energy is the energy due to the motion of body. It is mathematically expressed as:

           K.E  = \frac{1}{2}  m v²

m is the mass

v is the velocity

 Since the velocity of the two bodies are the same, and mass is directly proportional to kinetic energy, the body with more mass will have a higher kinetic energy.

 So between mass m1 and mass m2, the one with a greater mass will have a higher kinetic energy

Describe the difference between a transverse wave and longitudinal wave. Include the parts that you would find on a transverse w
spayn [35]
A transverse wave is a moving wave in which the current is perpendicular to the direction of the wave or path of propagation. A longitudinal wave are waves in which the displacement of the median is in the direction of the propagation.
Example:
Transverse- pond ripple
Longitudinal- crest and troff

Which of the following is a consequence of the special theory of relativity?
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

Specifically, Special Relativity showed us that space and time are not independent of one another but can be mixed into each other and therefore must be considered as the same object, which we shall denote as space-time. The consequences of space/time mixing are: time dilation. and length contraction.
