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.

Describe the general relationship between the weight of adult men and the average number of Calories needed daily to maintain a
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

The average number of calories needed daily represents the average quantity of calories eliminated by human body due to metabolism and must be compensated by eating and drinking.

The amount of calories contained in the food we eat every day must represent the amount of calories eliminated by the body in that time to have a steady weight.

Explanation:

The average number of calories needed daily represents the average quantity of calories eliminated by human body due to metabolism and must be compensated by eating and drinking. If total quantity of calories in the food we consume every day is higher that the average number of calories needed daily, then weight increases by fat accumulation.

The magnitude is pointing towards the origin and is at - 20 degrees. The combination makes 160 with the x axis: C answer

Eight

They keep doing this. They use distance where they should use displacement but they use distance to try and fool you. It's a mighty poor practice.

The distance between the start and end points is the displacement. That "distance" is 180*sqrt(25) = 900 . The actual distance should be 180*4 + 180*3 = 720 + 540 = 1260. That's what a car's odometer or a bicycle odometer would read.  the difference is 360.

I really do object to the wording, but what can I do?

Nine

Nine is the same thing as 8.

Displacement = sqrt(400^2 + 80^2)= sqrt(166400) = 408

The actual distance is 400 + 80 = 480

The difference is the answer = 480 - 408 = 72 <<<< Answer

Ten

This is just the displacement magnitude.

dis = sqrt(30^2 + 80^2)

dis = sqrt(900 + 6400)

dis = sqrt(7300)

dis = 85.44 <<<< Answer D

Twelve

Vi =  2.15*Sin(30) = 1.075 m/s

vf = 0

a = - 9.81

t = ?

<u>Formula</u>

a = (vf - vi)/t

<u>Solve</u>

-9.81 =  (0 - 1.075)/t

- 9.81 * t = -1.075

t = 0.11 seconds

Thirteen

I'm leaving this last one to you. You need the initial height xo to answer it properly. Judging by the other questions, this one is right.

Edit

That is a surprise! Really quickly

d = 3.2 m

a = - 9.82

vf = 0

vi = ?

vf^2 = vi^2 - 2*a*d

0 = vi^2 - 2*9.81*3.2

vi = sqrt(19.62*3.2)

vi = 8.0  m/s   But that is the vertical component of the speed

v = vi/sin(25)

v = 8.0/sin(25) = 11
