A 545-kg satellite is in a circular orbit about Earth at a height above Earth equal to Earth's mean radius. (a) Find the satelli

Art [367]

Answer

given,

mass of satellite = 545 Kg

R = 6.4 x 10⁶ m

H = 2 x 6.4 x 10⁶ m

Mass of earth = 5.972 x 10²⁴ Kg

height above earth is equal to earth's mean radius

a) satellite's orbital velocity

centripetal force acting on satellite = $\dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

gravitational force = $\dfrac{GMm}{r^2}$

equating both the above equation

$\dfrac{mv^2}{r} = \dfrac{GMm}{r^2}$

$v = \sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{r}}$

$v = \sqrt{\dfrac{6.67 \times 10^{-11}\times 5.972 \times 10^{24}}{2 \times 6.4 \times 10^6}}$

v = 5578.5 m/s

b) $T= \dfrac{2\pi\ r}{v}$

$T= \dfrac{2\pi\times 2\times 6.4 \times 10^6}{5578.5}$

T = 14416.92 s

$T = \dfrac{14416.92}{3600}\ hr$

T = 4 hr

c) gravitational force acting

$F = \dfrac{GMm}{r^2}$

$F = \dfrac{6.67 \times 10^{-11}\times 545 \times 5.972 \times 10^{24} }{(6.46 \times 10^6)^2}$

F = 5202 N

What type of energy does gasoline have? How could you relate it to the movement of a vehicle that uses it?

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

Chemical potential energy is the energy stored in the chemical bonds of a substance. The various chemicals that make up gasoline contain a large amount of chemical potential energy that is released when the gasoline is burned in a controlled way in the engine of the car.

A hockey puck with mass 0.3 kg is shot across an ice-covered pond. Before the hockey puck was hit, the puck was at rest. After t

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

The net friction force is 8.01 N

Explanation:

Net friction force = mass of hockey puck × acceleration

From the equations of motion

v^2 = u^2 + 2as

v = 40 m/s

u = 0 m/s (puck was initially at rest)

s = 30 m

40^2 = 0^2 + 2×a×30

60a = 1600

a = 1600/60 = 26.7 m/s^2

The acceleration of the puck is 26.7 m/s^2

Net friction force = 0.3 × 26.7 = 8.01 N
