What speed should a satellite with a mass of 1500 kg at 8,500 km above the center of the earth be traveling at in order to stay

in orbit (remember the mass of the earth is 5.97×10 to the 24th kg ) (in m/s , G= 6.67×10 to the -11 n (m/kg) ^2)

Answer:

6844.5 m/s.

Explanation:

To get the speed of the satellite, the centripetal force on it must be enough to change its direction. This therefore means that the centripetal force must be equal to the gravitational force.

Formula for centripetal force is;

F_c = mv²/r

Formula for gravitational force is:

F_g = GmM/r²

Thus;

mv²/r = GmM/r²

m is the mass of the satellite and M is mass of the earth.

Making v the subject, we have;

v = √(GM/r)

We are given;

G = 6.67 × 10^(-11) m/kg²

M = 5.97 × 10^(24) kg

r = 8500 km = 8500000

Thus;

v = √((6.67 × 10^(-11) × (5.97 × 10^(24)) /8500000) = 6844.5 m/s.

Answer:

6.8 × 10³ m/s

Explanation:

for those using CK12, the answer, (6.78 × 10³ m/s), rounds to 6.8 × 10³ m/s

An emf is induced by rotating a 1060 turn, 20.0 cm diameter coil in the Earth's 5.25 ✕ 10−5 T magnetic field. What average emf (
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The average emf induced in the coil is 175 mV

Explanation:

Given;

number of turns of the coil, N = 1060 turns

diameter of the coil, d = 20.0 cm = 0.2 m

magnitude of the magnetic field,  B = 5.25 x 10⁻⁵ T

duration of change in field, t = 10 ms = 10 x 10⁻³ s

The average emf induced in the coil is given by;

E = N\frac{\delta \phi}{dt} \\\\E = N\frac{\delta B}{\delta t}A

where;

A is the area of the coil

A = πr²

r is the radius of the coil = 0.2 /2 = 0.1 m

A = π(0.1)² = 0.03142 m²

E = \frac{NBA}{t} \\\\E = \frac{1060*5.25*10^{-5}*0.03142}{10*10^{-3}} \\\\E = 0.175 \ V\\\\E = 175 \ mV

Therefore, the average emf induced in the coil is 175 mV

What is the magnetic force on a proton that is moving at 2.5 107 m/s to the left through a magnetic field that is 3.4 T and poin
evablogger [386]

Answer: C. 1.4 10-11 N up

Explanation:

The magnetic force, F on a charge q moving with velocity v in a magnetic field B at an angle θ is given by:

F = q v B sin θ

Charge of proton, q = 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

Strength of magnetic field, B = 3.4 T pointing outwards

velocity of the proton, v = 2.5 × 10⁷ m/s towards left

Magnetic force is given by:

F =  1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C× 2.5 × 10⁷ m/s ×3.4 T× sin 90 = 13.6 × 10⁻¹² N = 1.4 × 10⁻¹¹ N up

The direction of the force is given by Lorentz Right hand rule. The fingers point magnetic field, the thumb points towards velocity, then the force on the proton is given by the direction perpendicular to the palm.  

The magnetic field acts outwards with velocity of the proton towards left. The force would act perpendicular to the two -upwards.

A puppy weighing 3 kilograms races through the dog park. If she slows from a speed of 2 meters/second to 1 meter/second, what wi
aliya0001 [1]
Ans: Thus, the kinetic energy change = 4.5 J

The mass of puppy = 3kg

Kinetic energy initial = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}
                                   = \frac{1}{2}*3*4 = 6 kg-m/s2

Kinetic energy final = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2} = \frac{1}{2}*3*1 = 1.5 kg-m/s2

Thus, the kinetic energy change = 4.5 J

ikadub [295]

Answer:

This is one of the hottest summers America has ever seen and Jeremiah Warren is taking advantage of the heat wave and doing a little cooking…in his car!

It was about 98 or 99 degrees in Texas, so Jeremiah thought he’d head outside to see if it was hot enough to actually cook food.  He buttered up a frying pan on his dashboard and filled it with an egg, cookie dough, a hot dog and bacon (mmm…bacon!).  He set up another frying pan on the sidewalk and a few hours later he came back for a mid-day snack.
