The gravitational acceleration at any distance r is given by
where G is the gravitational constant, M the Earth's mass and r is the distance measured from the center of the Earth.
The Earth's radius is , so the meteoroid is located at a distance of:
And by substituting this value into the previous formula, we can find the value of g at that altitude:
Answer:
B.The linear velocity of the gears is the same. The linear velocity is 432π centimeters per minute.
Explanation:
As we know that the small gear completes 24 revolutions in 20 seconds
so the angular speed of the smaller gear is given as
Now we know that the tangential speed of the chain is given as
so we have
Since both gears are connected by same chain so both have same linear speed and hence correct answer will be
B.The linear velocity of the gears is the same. The linear velocity is 432π centimeters per minute.
