Answer:

Explanation:

the equation of g (field gravity)

g = G M/R²

because G (Contant of Gravitasion) and M (Mass of earth) same, them

g2/g1 = R1²/R2²

g1 = g now

g2 = g which the value we looking for

g2/g = 1/(1/2)²

g2/g = 1/(1/4)

g2/g = 4

g2 = 4g

Answer:

4 times what it is now.

Explanation:

g=G(M/r^2)

G is constant, so ignore.

We have (1M/0.5r^2), or 4.

A radar antenna is tracking a satellite orbiting the earth. At a certain time, the radar screen shows the satellite to be 118 km

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

x component 60.85 m

y component 101.031 m

Explanation:

We have given distance r = 118 km

Angle which makes from ground = 58.9°

(a) X component of distance is given by $r_x=rcos\Theta =118\times cos58.9=118\times 0.5165=118=60.85m$

(b) Y component of distance is given by $r_Y=rcos\Theta =118\times sin58.9=118\times 0.8562=101.0316m$

These are the x and y component of position vector
