Answer:

v = 3.08 km/s

Explanation:

Given that,

The angular velocity of the satellite = \omega=7.27\times 10^{-5} rad/s

A satellite is in orbit 36000km above the surface of the earth.

The radius of the earth is 6400 km

Let v is the velocity of the satellite. It can be calculated as :

v=r\omega\\\\v=(36000\times 10^3+6400\times 10^3)\times 7.27\times 10^{-5}\\\\v=3082.48\ m/s\\\\v=3.08\ km/s

So, the velocity of the satellite is 3.08 km/s.

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

a_y=0.92m/s^2

Explanation:

To solve this problem we use the formula for accelerated motion:

y=y_0+v_{y0}t+\frac{a_yt^2}{2}

We will take the initial position as our reference (y_0=0m) and the downward direction as positive. Since the rock departs from rest we have:

y=\frac{a_yt^2}{2}

Which means our acceleration would be:

a_y=\frac{2y}{t^2}

Using our values:

a_y=\frac{2(0.86m)}{(1.37s)^2}=0.92m/s^2

sesenic [268]

Answer:

A wind turbine captures the wind, which then produces a renewable energy source. The wind makes the rotor spin; as the rotor spins, the movement of the blades drives a generator that creates energy. The motion of the blades turning is kinetic energy. It is this power that we convert into electricity.
