An undiscovered planet, many lightyears from Earth, has one moon in a periodic orbit. This moon takes 2060 × 103 seconds (about

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

Acceleration, $a=2.22\times 10^{-3}\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Time period of revolution of the moon, $T=2060\times 10^3\ s$

If the distance from the center of the moon to the surface of the planet is, $h=235\times 10^6\ m$

The radius of the planet, $r=3.9\times 10^6\ m$

Let a is the moon's radial acceleration. Mathematically, it is given by :

$a=R\times \omega^2$ , R is the radius of orbit

Since, $\omega=\dfrac{2\pi}{T}$

The radius of orbit is,

$R=r+h$

$R=3.9\times 10^6\ m+235\times 10^6\ m=238900000\ m$

So, $a=\dfrac{4\pi^2 R}{T^2}$

$a=\dfrac{4\pi^2 \times 238900000}{(2060\times 10^3)^2}$

$a=2.22\times 10^{-3}\ m/s^2$

Hence, this is the required solution for the radial acceleration of the moon.

A 15.0 kg medicine ball is thrown at a velocity of 10.0 m/s to a 60.0 kg person who is a rest on ice. The person catches the bal

shutvik [7]

Answer:

The velocity of ball and man after catching ball is $2m/s$

Explanation:

Since there is no friction and no external force the momentum is conserved .

Here when man catches ball then man and ball move with common velocity .

Let the final common velocity be $v_{f}$ ,

Given that mass of the ball is $m_{b}$ = $15kg$

Given that mass of man is $m=60kg$

Initial velocity of ball = $v_{i} = 10m/s$

Now considering momentum conservation

$p_{i} =p_{f}$

$m_{b}v_{i} = (m_{b} +m)\times v\\v=m_{b}v_{i}/(m_{b} +m) = \frac{150}{75} =2m/s$

The international space station makes 15.65 revolutions per day in its orbit around the earth. assuming a circular orbit, how hi

sweet-ann [11.9K]

<span>373.2 km The formula for velocity at any point within an orbit is v = sqrt(mu(2/r - 1/a)) where v = velocity mu = standard gravitational parameter (GM) r = radius satellite currently at a = semi-major axis Since the orbit is assumed to be circular, the equation is simplified to v = sqrt(mu/r) The value of mu for earth is 3.986004419 Ă— 10^14 m^3/s^2 Now we need to figure out how many seconds one orbit of the space station takes. So 86400 / 15.65 = 5520.767 seconds And the distance the space station travels is 2 pi r, and since velocity is distance divided by time, we get the following as the station's velocity 2 pi r / 5520.767 Finally, combining all that gets us the following equality v = 2 pi r / 5520.767 v = sqrt(mu/r) mu = 3.986004419 Ă— 10^14 m^3/s^2 2 pi r / 5520.767 s = sqrt(3.986004419 * 10^14 m^3/s^2 / r) Square both sides 1.29527 * 10^-6 r^2 s^2 = 3.986004419 * 10^14 m^3/s^2 / r Multiply both sides by r 1.29527 * 10^-6 r^3 s^2 = 3.986004419 * 10^14 m^3/s^2 Divide both sides by 1.29527 * 10^-6 s^2 r^3 = 3.0773498781296 * 10^20 m^3 Take the cube root of both sides r = 6751375.945 m Since we actually want how far from the surface of the earth the space station is, we now subtract the radius of the earth from the radius of the orbit. For this problem, I'll be using the equatorial radius. So 6751375.945 m - 6378137.0 m = 373238.945 m Converting to kilometers and rounding to 4 significant figures gives 373.2 km</span>
