g A meteoroid is in a circular orbit 600 km above the surface of a distant planet. The planet has the same mass as Earth but has

a radius that is 90 % of Earth's (where Earth's radius is approximately 6370 km ). What is the gravitational acceleration of the meteoroid

Answer:

Explanation:

gravitational acceleration of meteoroid

=  GM / R²

M is mass of planet , R is radius of orbit of meteoroid from the Centre of the planet .

R = (.9 x 6370 + 600 )x 10³ m

= 6333 x 10³ m

M , mass of the planet = 5.97 x 10²⁴ kg .

gravitational acceleration of meteoroid

=  GM / R²

=  (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ x 5.97 x 10²⁴ kg  / (6333 x 10³ m)²

9.92m/s²

What does an electromagnet do?
butalik [34]
An electromagnet is a device that sends electricity through a coil of wire to produce a magnetic field. This leads to a magnet that can be controlled - turned on and off with the flip of a switch, or increased or decreased in strength. The coils are often wrapped around a regular magnet to make it stronger.

What occurs when someone places an ice pack on an injured ankle?
erica [24]

The answer is:

Heat from the ankle is transferred to the ice pack.

The explanation:

-when the ice pack  a lower temp than the ankle , it is very cool.

- and the injured ankle has a high temp or heat

and we know that Q transfer from the object with high heat to the object with the low temp So,

Heat will transfer from the ankle to the ice pack.
