Recall that the magnitude of the acceleration a of a particle moving with speed v in a circular path around a point at a distance R away from the particle is given by

a=\dfrac{v^2}R

So, the satellite has velocity

6.2\,\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}=\dfrac{v^2}{800\,\rm m}\implies v=70.4\,\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}

pointing in the direction tangent to the circular path.

A common physics demonstration is to drop a small magnet down a long, vertical aluminum pipe. Describe the motion of the magnet
Rzqust [24]

Answer and Explanation:

This experiment is known as Lenz's tube.

The Lenz tube is an experiment that shows how you can brake a magnetic dipole that goes down a tube that conducts electric current. The magnet, when falling, along with its magnetic field, will generate variations in the magnetic field flux within the tube. These variations create an emf induced according to Faraday's Law:

\varepsilon =-\frac{d\phi_B}{dt}

This emf induced on the surface of the tube generates a current within it according to Ohm's Law:

V=IR

This emf and current oppose the flux change, therefore a field will be produced in such a direction that the magnet is repelled from below and is attracted from above. The magnitude of the flux at the bottom of the magnet increases from the point of view of the tube, and at the top it decreases. Therefore, two "magnets" are generated under and above the dipole, which repel it below and attract above. Finally, the dipole feels a force in the opposite direction to the direction of fall, therefore it falls with less speed.
