A satellite will travel indefinitely in a circular orbit around the earth if the normal component of its acceleration is equal t

o 2 gRr ( /), where 2 g =9.81 m/s , R = radius of the earth = 6370 km, and r = distance from the center of the earth to the satellite. Assuming that the orbit of the moon is a circle of radius 3 384 10 km, ´ determine the speed of the moon relative to the earth.

Answer:

3665.46 km/hr

Explanation:

Given that :

R = radius of the earth = 6370 km = (6370 * 10^3)m

Radius from earth center, r = 384 * 10^3 km = (384 * 10^6) m

g = 9.8 m/s²

Using the relation :

V = sqrt(gR² /r)

V² = (9.81 * (6370*10^3)²) / 384 * 10^6

V² = (3.981 * 10^8 *10^6 / 384 * 10^6)

V² = 1.0367 * 10^(12 - 6)

V² = 1.0367 * 10^6

V² = 1036700

V = sqrt(1036700)

V = 1018.1846 m/s

(1018.1846 * 1/1000 * 3600) km/hr

V = 3665.46456 km/hr

Juan and Kuri are on a carousel. Juan is closer to the center of the carousel than Kuri. Which statement describes their tangent
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

Juan and Kuri complete one revolution in the same time, but Juan travels a shorter distance and has a lower speed.

Explanation:

Since Juan is closer to the center and Kuri is away from the center so we can say that Juan will move smaller distance in one complete revolution

As we know that the distance moved in one revolution is given as

d = 2\pi r

also the time period of revolution for both will remain same as they move with the time period of carousel

Now we can say that the speed is given as

v = \frac{2\pi r}{T}

so Juan will have less tangential speed. so correct answer will be

Juan and Kuri complete one revolution in the same time, but Juan travels a shorter distance and has a lower speed.

Answer:  Temperature in Fahrenheit is 577.4

Explanation:

The conversion factor for converting celcius to Fahrenheit is:

F=\frac{9}{5}\times C+32

where F = temperature in Fahrenheit

C = Temperature in Celcius

Given : Temperature difference in Celcius = 303^0C

Putting in the values we get:

F=\frac{9}{5}\times 303+32

F=577.4

Thus the answer in Fahrenheit is 577.4
