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.

Why do we say that a baseball falls toward Earth, and not Earth toward the baseball?
mezya [45]
Probably because the earth is stationary rotating on its axis whereas the baseball is the one doing all of the movement after being thrown

A particle is moving along the x-axis so that its position at any time t is greater than and equal to 0 is given by x(t)=2te^-t?
erastovalidia [21]
For speed you can differentiate the equation, for acceleration you can again differentiate the equation .
at t=0 the particle is slowing down , when you get equation for velocity put t=0 then only -1 is left

Which descriptions best fit the labels? X: kinetic energy Y: potential energy X: potential energy Y: kinetic energy X: mechanica

W-APE. For example, work W done to accelerate a positive charge from rest is positive and results from a loss in PE, or a negative APE. There must be a minus sign in front of APE to make W positive. PE can be found at any point by taking one point as a reference and calculating the work needed to move a charge to the other point.
