Answer:
26 lbf
Explanation:
The mass of the satellite is the same regardless of where it is.
The weight however, depends on the acceleration of gravity.
The universal gravitation equation:
g = G * M / d^2
Where
G: universal gravitation constant (6.67*10^-11 m^3/(kg*s))
M: mass of the body causing the gravitational field (mass of Earth = 6*10^24 kg)
d: distance to that body
15000 miles = 24140 km
The distance is to the center of Earth.
Earth radius = 6371 km
Then:
d = 24140 + 6371 = 30511 km
g = 6.67*10^-11 * 6*10^24 / 30511000^2 = 0.43 m/s^2
Then we calculate the weight:
w = m * a
w = 270 * 0.43 = 116 N
116 N is 26 lbf

DESCULPA MAS EU NÃO ENTENDI
A clean machine is a clean machine :-)
Answer:
a) the object floats
b) the object floats
c) the object sinks
Explanation:
when an object is less dense than in the fluid in which it is immersed, it will float due to its weight and volume characteristics, so to solve this problem we must find the mass and volume of each object in order to calculate the density and compare it with that of water
a)
volumen for a cube
V=L^3
L=1.53in=0.0388m
V=0.0388 ^3=5.8691x10^-5m^3=58.69ml
density=m/v
density=13.5g/58.69ml=0.23 g/ml
The wooden block floats because it is less dense than water
b)
m=111mg=0.111g
density=m/v
density=0.111g/0.296ml=0.375g/ml
the metal paperclip floats because it is less dense than water
c)
V=0.93cups=220.0271ml
m=0.88lb=399.1613g
Density=m/v
density=399.1613/220.027ml=1.8141g/ml
the apple sinks because it is denser than water
