Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

As we know

Gravitational Constant (G) = 6.67*10^{11}

Mass of Earth (M) = 5.98*10^{24}

Weight of satellite (m) = 10,000 Kg

Radius of Earth (R) = 6.378*10^6

Distance of satellite from Earth = \frac{GMm}{R} - U

Substituting the given values, we get

D=\frac{(-((6.67*10^{11})(5.98*10^{24})(10000))}{(6.378*10^6)} - (-5.58*10^{11})\\\\0.625*10^{3}Km

or 635 m

The correct answer is option D

Which principle of the software engineering code of ethics has gilbert violated?.
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

Judgement

Explanation:

Gilbert is required by the Judgement Principle to "disclose those conflicts of interest that cannot reasonably be avoided or escaped." Since Gilbert professionally believes that the software meets specifications, secures documents, and satisfies user requirements, it is not clear if he violated any principle. However, he could have informed his client of his interest in the software and also presented other software packages of different companies from which the client could make its independent choice.
