Cool facts about satellites ???

Physics
1 answer:
svetoff [14.1K]2 years ago
7 0
Satellites travel at 18,000 miles per hour. ...

A satellite gets better fuel economy than a Prius.

If you put all of the data that our satellites collect in a year on DVDs, it would form a stack nearly 4 times the height of the Empire State Building.

There are over 2,500 satellites in orbit around the Earth.

A man can jump 1.5 m on earth. calculate the approximate
Olegator [25]

Answer:

18 m

Explanation:

G = Gravitational constant

m = Mass of planet = \rho V

\rho = Density of planet

V = Volume of planet assuming it is a sphere = \dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3

r = Radius of planet

Acceleration due to gravity on a planet is given by

g=\dfrac{Gm}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow g=\dfrac{G\rho V}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow g=\dfrac{G\rho \dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow g=\dfrac{4G\rho\pi r}{3}

So,

g\propto \rho r

Density of other planet = \rho_p=\dfrac{1}{4}\rho_e

Radius of other planet = r_p=\dfrac{1}{3}r_e

\dfrac{g_e}{g_p}=\dfrac{\rho_e r_e}{\rho_p r_p}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{g_e}{g_p}=\dfrac{\rho_e r_e}{\dfrac{1}{4}\rho_e\times \dfrac{1}{3}r_e}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{g_e}{g_p}=12\\\Rightarrow g_p=\dfrac{g_e}{12}\\\Rightarrow g_p=\dfrac{9.8}{12}

Since the person is jumping up the acceleration due to gravity will be negative.

From kinematic equations we have

v^2-u^2=2g_es\\\Rightarrow u^2=v^2-2g_es\\\Rightarrow u^2=0-2\times -9.8\times 1.5\\\Rightarrow u^2=2\times 9.8\times 1.5

On the other planet

v^2-u^2=2g_ps\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2g_p}\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{0-(2\times 9.8\times 1.5)}{2\times -\dfrac{9.8}{12}}\\\Rightarrow s=18\ \text{m}

The man can jump a height of 18 m on the other planet.

Please help I'm dispirit.

Synthesis and decomposition reactions are  b. Synthesis and decomposition reactions are opposites of each other. Synthesis reactions are in the form A + B → AB, while decomposition reactions are in the form AB → A + B.

Synthesis reactions are reactions in which elements or compounds combine to form a larger compound. They are of the form A + B → AB.

Example: Na(s) + Cl (g)→ NaCl(s)

Decomposition reactions are reactions in which a larger compound breaks up into smaller compounds or elements. They are of the form AB → A + B.

Example: CaCO₃(s) → CaO (s) + CO₂ (g)

Synthesis and decomposition reactions are opposite of each other since synthesis reactions, new substances are formed while in decomposition reactions the compound is broken down into into smaller constituents.

So, Synthesis and decomposition reactions are  b. Synthesis and decomposition reactions are opposites of each other. Synthesis reactions are in the form A + B → AB, while decomposition reactions are in the form AB → A + B.

PLEASE HLEP I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST TO CORRECT ANSWER!!!!!!
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

75 km/h

Explanation:

Speed = Distance divided by Time.

The train went a distance of 300 km in 4 hours. Therefore, the speed of the train is: 300 divided by 4 = 75 km/h
