Answer:

v ≈ 7900 m/s

Explanation:

centripetal force will equal gravity force

mv²/R = mg

v²/R = g

v² = Rg

v = √(Rg)

v = √(6.4e6(9.8))

v = 7.91959...e+3

v ≈ 7900 m/s

of course, at those velocities and that deep into the atmosphere, the satellite would quickly burn up, slow down, and cause tremendous damage to buildings etc. with the sonic boom shock wave. It would also have to avoid a lot of mountains as 4000 m is not that high.

Calculate the magnitude of the electric field 2.00 m from a point charge of 5.00 mC (such as found on the terminal of a Van de G
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric field is 1.124 X 10⁷ N/C

Explanation:

Magnitude of electric field is given as;

E = \frac{kq}{r^2} , N/C

where;

E is the magnitude of the electric field, N/C

q is the point charge, C

k is coulomb's constant, Nm²/C²

r is the distance of the point charge, m

Given;

q = 5mC = 5×10⁻³ C

r = 2m

k = 8.99 × 10⁹ Nm²/C²

Substitute these values and solve for magnitude of electric field E

E = \frac{kq}{r^2}  = \frac{(8.99 X10^9)(5X10^{-3})}{2^2}  = 1.124 X10^7 N/C

Therefore, the magnitude of the electric field is 1.124 X 10⁷ N/C

What is the reactive force when a fish swims through water?
natima [27]
The answer is D

This is an example of Newton's third law of motion.

The active force is the fish against the water, so the reactive force would be the reverse, the equal force of the water on the fish.
