Answer:

7.65x10^3 m/s

Explanation:

The computation of the satellite's orbital speed is shown below:

Given that

Earth mass, M_e = 5.97 × 10^24 kg

Gravitational constant, G = 6.67 × 10^-11 N·m^2/kg

Orbital radius, r = 6.80 × 10^6m

Based on the above information

the satellite's orbital speed is

V_o = √GM_e ÷ √r

= √6.67 × 10^-11 × 5.97 × 10^24 ÷ √6.80 × 10^6

= 7.65x10^3 m/s

A hockey pick sliding along a frictional surface strikes a box at rest, after the collision the two objects stick together and m

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

Option a is correct

If puck and pick constitute a system then the momentum of the system is conserved but not this may not be valid for the puck .

Option e is correct

If puck and pick is the system then momentum is conserved but because of the presence of friction, mechanical energy is not conserved.

Friction will cause the energy to dissipate in heat.

A bicyclist is traveling at +25m/s when he begins to decelerate at -4m/s2. How fast is he traveling after 5 seconds

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

+5m/s

Explanation:

When doing the math we figure out that e is going to be slowing down at -4m/s² for 5 seconds. In total he is slowing down -20m/s which we take from the total speed of +25m/s to get his current new speed.

A system of inertia 0.47 kg consists of a spring gun attached to a cart and a projectile. The system is at rest on a horizontal

Vlad [161]

Answer:

v'=0.83m/a and v=10.2m/s

Explanation:

The information that we have is:

$m_1=0.050kg\\m_2=0.47kg\\\theta = 40\\h=2.2m$

The maximum height of the projectile is given by the equation

$h=\frac{v^2sin^2\theta}{2g}$

So, rearrange for the velocity,

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2gh}{sin^2\theta}}\\v=\sqrt{\frac{2*9.8*2.2}{sin^2(40)}}\\v=10.2m/s$

Apply the conservation of momentum,

$mvcos(\theta)=m'v'$

Then rearrange the recoil speed,

$v'=\frac{mvcos\theta}{m_2}\\v'=\frac{0.05*10.2*cos40}{0.47}\\v'=0.83m/s\\$
