Answer:
G M m / R^2 = m v^2 / R gravitational force = centripetal force
G M = v^2 R = constant
As v increases R will must decrease
Take the moon as an example
S = 2 pi R where R is about 240,000 miles for one orbit
S / 1 day = 54,000 miles/day for a 28 day circuit
S / 1 hr = 54000 / 24 = 2200 mph which is much less than a satellite in orbit
Answer:
The acorn hasn't hit the ground because it only falsl half of the branch distance from the ground
Explanation:
given information:
h =9.8
t =1 s
g = 9.8
the average speed
v = 1/2 gt²
= 1/2 (9.8) (1)²
= 4.8 m/s
the distance in 1s
h = v t
= 4.8 (1)
= 4.8 m
the acorn hasn't hit the ground because it only falsl half of the branch distance from the ground
=
