Hi there!
The period of an orbit can be found by:
T = Period (? s)
r = radius of orbit (6400000 m)
v = speed of the satellite (8000 m/s)
This is the same as the distance = vt equation. The total distance traveled by the satellite is the circumference of its circular orbit.
Let's plug in what we know and solve.
Time = (distance) / (speed)
= (30 km) / (30 m/s)
= (30,000 m) / (30 m/s)
= (30,000 / 30) sec
= 1,000 seconds
= 16 minutes 40 seconds
Answer:
(d) a net external force must be acting on the system
Explanation:
Momentum is given as the product of mass and velocity.
P = MV
According to Newton's second law of motion, " Force applied to a body (system) is directly proportional to the rate of change of momentum of the body (system) which takes place in the direction of the applied force (external force).
F ∝ΔMV
Therefore, If the total momentum of a system is changing, a net external force must be acting on the system.
(d) a net external force must be acting on the system
Answer:
Explanation:
We can use the following SUVAT equation to solve the problem:
where
v = 0 is the final velocity of the car
u = 24 m/s is the initial velocity
a is the acceleration
d = 196 m is the displacement of the car before coming to a stop
Solving the equation for a, we find the acceleration:
