<h3><u>Question: </u></h3>
The equation for the speed of a satellite in a circular orbit around the Earth depends on mass. Which mass?
a. The mass of the sun
b. The mass of the satellite
c. The mass of the Earth
<h3><u>Answer:</u></h3>
The equation for the speed of a satellite orbiting in a circular path around the earth depends upon the mass of Earth.
Option c
<h3><u>
Explanation:
</u></h3>
Any particular body performing circular motion has a centripetal force in picture. In this case of a satellite revolving in a circular orbit around the earth, the necessary centripetal force is provided by the gravitational force between the satellite and earth. Hence
.
Gravitational force between Earth and Satellite: 
Centripetal force of Satellite :
Where G = Gravitational Constant
= Mass of Earth
= Mass of satellite
R= Radius of satellite’s circular orbit
V = Speed of satellite
Equating
, we get
Speed of Satellite 
Thus the speed of satellite depends only on the mass of Earth.
Answer:
His average speed was 10.3199 m/s.
Explanation:
I think it should be D as momentum is the product of mass and velocity...
Answer:
0.12 K
Explanation:
height, h = 51 m
let the mass of water is m.
Specific heat of water, c = 4190 J/kg K
According to the transformation of energy
Potential energy of water = thermal energy of water
m x g x h = m x c x ΔT
Where, ΔT is the rise in temperature
g x h = c x ΔT
9.8 x 51 = 4190 x ΔT
ΔT = 0.12 K
Thus, the rise in temperature is 0.12 K.
