If you count the number of seconds between the flash of lightning and the sound of thunder, and then divide by 5, you'll get the distance in miles to the lightning: 5 seconds = 1 mile, 15 seconds = 3 miles, 0 seconds = very close. Keep in mind that you should be in a safe place while counting.

A man-made satellite of mass 6105 kg is in orbit around the earth, making one revolution in 430 minutes. What is the magnitude o

blondinia [14]

Answer:

A gravitational force of 6841.905 newtons is exerted on the satellite by the Earth.

Explanation:

At first we assume that Earth is represented by an uniform sphere, such that the man-made satellite rotates in a circular orbit around the planet. Hence, the following condition must be satisfied:

$\left(\frac{4\pi^{2}}{T^{2}} \right)\cdot r = \frac{G\cdot M}{r^{2}}$ (1)

Where:

$T$ - Period of rotation of the satellite, measured in seconds.

$r$ - Distance of the satellite with respect to the center of the planet, measured in meters.

$G$ - Gravitational constant, measured in newton-square meters per square kilogram.

$M$ - Mass of the Earth, measured in kilograms.

Now we clear the distance of the satellite with respect to the center of the planet:

$r^{3} = \frac{G\cdot M\cdot T^{2}}{4\pi^{2}}$

$r = \sqrt[3]{\frac{G\cdot M\cdot T^{2}}{4\pi^{2}} }$ (2)

If we know that $G = 6.67\times 10^{-11}\,\frac{N\cdot m^{2}}{kg^{2}}$ , $M = 6.0\times 10^{24}\,kg$ and $T = 25800\,s$ , then the distance of the satellite is:

$r = \sqrt[3]{\frac{\left(6.67\times 10^{-11}\,\frac{N\cdot m^{2}}{kg^{2}} \right)\cdot (6.0\times 10^{24}\,kg)\cdot (25800\,s)^{2}}{4\pi^{2}} }$

$r \approx 18.897\times 10^{6}\,m$

The gravitational force exerted on the satellite by the Earth is determined by the Newton's Law of Gravitation:

$F = \frac{G\cdot m\cdot M}{r^{2}}$ (3)

Where:

$m$ - Mass of the satellite, measured in kilograms.

$F$ - Force exerted on the satellite by the Earth, measured in newtons.

If we know that $G = 6.67\times 10^{-11}\,\frac{N\cdot m^{2}}{kg^{2}}$ , $M = 6.0\times 10^{24}\,kg$ , $m = 6105\,kg$ and $r \approx 18.897\times 10^{6}\,m$ , then the gravitational force is:

$F = \frac{\left(6.67\times 10^{-11}\,\frac{N\cdot m^{2}}{kg^{2}} \right)\cdot (6105\,kg)\cdot (6\times 10^{24}\,kg)}{(18.897\times 10^{6}\,m)^{2}}$

$F = 6841.905\,N$

A gravitational force of 6841.905 newtons is exerted on the satellite by the Earth.

________ In many cartoon shows, a character runs off a cliff, realizes his predicament, and lets out a scream. He continues to s

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

Here the source is moving away from the observer so frequency will be smaller than the actual frequency and since the speed is increasing so the frequency is decreasing with time so correct answer is

D) lower than the original pitch and decreasing as he falls.

Explanation:

As we know by the Doppler's effect of sound we have

so we will have

$f = f_o(\frac{v}{v + v_s})$

so here when source moves away from the observer with a some speed then the frequency of the sound observed by the observer is smaller than the actual frequency

Here we know that the speed of the source is increasing with time as the source is falling under gravity

So we can say that the pitch of the sound will decrease with time

A ball is whirled on the end of a string in a horizontal circle of radius R at constant speed v. Complete the following statemen

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Keeping the speed fixed and decreasing the radius by a factor of 4

Explanation:

A ball is whirled on the end of a string in a horizontal circle of radius R at constant speed v. The centripetal acceleration is given by :

$a=\dfrac{v^2}{R}$

We need to find how the "centripetal acceleration of the ball can be increased by a factor of 4"

It can be done by keeping the speed fixed and decreasing the radius by a factor of 4 such that,

R' = R/4

New centripetal acceleration will be,

$a'=\dfrac{v^2}{R'}$

$a'=\dfrac{v^2}{R/4}$

$a'=4\times \dfrac{v^2}{R}$

$a'=4\times a$

So, the centripetal acceleration of the ball can be increased by a factor of 4.

Psi communication refers to the transfer of information through a/an ________ process.

shtirl [24]

Answer:

unknown

Explanation:

Psi communication: The term "Psi communication" was initially originated in an article named 'Mass Communication and Para-Social Interaction' during 1956 by Donald Horton, and is also denoted as "parasocial interaction". It is described as a phenomenon that involves "one-sided interaction" between people, encompassing the viewer knowing a specific celebrity well whereas the viewer himself or herself is being completely unknown for the celebrity in return.

In the question above, the given statement represents that the Psi communication is responsible for transforming via an unknown process as one of its members are considered as unknown of the transfer, so the correct answer would be "unknown process".
