Two friends are having a conversation. Anna says a satellite in orbit is in freefall because the satellite keeps falling toward

Earth. Tom says a satellite in orbit is not in freefall because the acceleration due to gravity is not 9.80 m/2 . Who do you agree with and why?

4 0

Answer:

Anna is correct.

Explanation:

Anna is right as a satellite is in free fall because it keeps falling toward Earth, meaning that gravity is the only force acting on it. Tom is incorrect because an object does not have to accelerate at a certain speed to be considered to be in free fall. As long as gravity is the only force acting upon the object, it is considered to be in free fall.

If a ball has a velocity of 18 m/s, how far does it travel in 15 seconds
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>270 m</h2>

Explanation:

To find the distance when given the velocity and time we use the formula

<h3>distance = velocity × time</h3>

From the question

velocity of the ball = 18 m/s

time = 15 s

So the distance is

distance = 18 × 15

We have the final answer as

<h3>270 m</h3>

Hope this helps you

Unlike the idealized voltmeter, a real voltmeter has a resistance that is not infinitely large. part a a voltmeter with resistan
Margaret [11]
The EMF of the battery includes the force to to drive across its internal resistance. the total resistance:  
R = internal resistance r + resistance connected rv 
R = r + rv  
Now find the current:  
V 1= IR 
I = R / V1  
find the voltage at the battery terminal (which is net of internal resistance) using  
V 2= IR  
So the voltage at the terminal is:  
V = V2 - V1  
This is the potential difference vmeter measured by the voltmeter.

How would you determine how much error there is between a vector addition and the real results
chubhunter [2.5K]
Desired operation: A + B = C; {A,B,C) are vector quantities. 

<span>Issue: {A,B} contain error (measurement or otherwise) </span>

<span>Objective: estimate the error in the vector sum. </span>

<span>Let A = u + du; where u is the nominal value of A and du is the error in A </span>
<span>Let B = v + dv; where v is the nominal value of B and dv is the error in B </span>
<span>Let C = w + dw; where w is the nominal value of C and dw is the error in C [the objective] </span>

<span>C = A + B </span>

<span>w + dw = (u + du) + (v + dv) </span>

<span>w + dw = (u + v) + (du + dv) </span>

<span>w = u+v; dw = du + dv </span>

<span>The error associated with w is the vector sum of the errors associated with the measured quantities (u,v)</span>
