A satellite is orbiting the Earth in a circular orbit of radius r. Its frequency is independent of its height above the surface

of the Earth. a. TRUE b. FALSE
Physics
1 answer:
Pie3 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>

You are an engineer in charge of designing a new generation of elevators for a prospective upgrade to the Empire State Building.
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

22.505 seconds

Explanation:

V =19.8m/s

V = a*to

t1 = 19.8/3.3

= 6seconds

Distance travelled during acceleration

= 1/2 x 3.3 x 6²

= 59.4m

X_total = x1 + x2

X2 = 373-59.4

X2 = 313.6m

t2 = x2/v

= 313.6/19.8

= 16.505

Total = 16.505 + 6

= 22.505 seconds

the minimum time in which an elevator can travel the 373 m from the ground floor is 22.505 seconds.

"5 N, up" is an example of a ___.<br> OA) force<br> OB) mass<br> OC) weight<br> OD) magnitude
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

A) Force

Explanation:

It is an example of force since force is a vector quantity so it has magnitude and direction. In this case the magnitude is equal to 5 [N] and the direction is upward.

The weight can not be, as it always acts downward.

Mass is not a force, its unit is given usually in kilogram [kg]

Determine the approximate force (N) used to pull a sled up a 400 m hill using 1900 J of work.
Sergeu [11.5K]
The work done to pull the sled up to the hill is given by
W=Fd
where
F is the intensity of the force
d is the distance where the force is applied.

In our problem, the work done is W=1900 J and the distance through which the force is applied is d=400 m, so we can calculate the average force by re-arranging the previous equation and by using these data:
F= \frac{W}{d}= \frac{1900 J}{400 m} = 4.75 N \sim 5 N

An atomic physicist determines that an atom is composed of 8 positively charged particles and has a mass of 15 amu. which is the
stellarik [79]
<span> 1.the atom has 7 neutrons and 8 protons....

because the positively charged particles are the protons ...and 8 is also the atomic number ...so number of neutrons can be calculated by subtracting </span>atomic number from the mass number...which gives us the neutrons 7 ...

Hope it helps !!!
