How is momentum conserved in which two satellites connect

Biology
1 answer:
creativ13 [48]4 years ago
4 0
If we have:
m₁ as the mass of the first satellite
m₂ as the mass of the second satellite
v₁ as the velocity of the first satellite before the connection
v₂ as the velocity of the second satellite before the connection
v₁' as the velocity of the first satellite after the connection
v₂' as the velocity of the second satellite after the connection

The momentum is conserved following this equation:
m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₁v₁' + m₂v₂'

If the collision is perfectly elastic or the two satellites connect perfectly and move with a single velocity:
m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁ + m₂)v'
where v' is the velocity of the two connected satellites

The difference in heat distribution between the poles and the equator is due to Earth’s
kkurt [141]
The axis of the earth is tilted (ANSWER IS C). The equator is heated more than other areas because the sun's rays hit it directly.
As you move north or south of the equator, they fall slantingly or obliquely.
When summer is in the south and vice versa, the heat also changes with the earth's rotation.
The tropic of Capricorn and the tropic of Cancer alternately get direct sunlight.
Due to the uneven heating of the earth, wind and ocean currents are created, supporting life.
