Answer:

9194.4278 seconds

Explanation:

Orbital period is given by :

T² = (4π²r³) /GM

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 * 10^-11

M = 5.9801 * 10^24 kg

r = (3.110 * 10^6 m + 6378000 m) =3110000 + 6378000 = 9488000 m

T² = (4π² * 9488000^3) / (6.67* 10^-11 * 5.9801*10^24)

T² = 3.37197 * 10^22 / 398872670000000

T² = 84537504.161415

T = sqrt(84537504.161415)

T = 9194.4278 seconds

A 4-kg hammer is lifted to a height of 10 m and dropped from rest. What was the velocity (in m/s) of the hammer when it was at a
ipn [44]

Answer:

v = 10.84 m/s

Explanation:

using the equation of motion:

v^2 = (v0)^2 + 2×a(r - r0)

<em>due to the hammer starting from rest, vo = 0 m/s and a = g , g is the gravitational acceleration.</em>

v^2 = 2×g(r - r0)

v = \sqrt{2×(-9.8)×(4 - 10)}

  = 10.84 m/s

therefore, the velocity at r = 4 meters is 10.84 m/s
