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

How is the fuel introduced into the Diesel engine?
Ugo [173]

Answer:

diesel fuel is pumped at high pressure to the injectors which are responsible for entering the fuel into the combustion chamber,

when the piston is at the top the pressure is so high that it explodes the fuel (diesel) that results in a generation of mechanical power

A cylindrical resistor element on a circuit board dissipates 0.6 W of power. The resistor is 1.5 cm long, and has a diameter of
Burka [1]

Answer:

a. 51.84Kj

b. 2808.99 W/m^2

c. 11.75%

Explanation:

Amount of heat this resistor dissipates during a 24-hour period

= amount of power dissipated * time

= 0.6 * 24 = 14.4 Watt hour

(Note 3.6Watt hour = 1Kj )

=14.4*3.6 = 51.84Kj

Heat flux = amount of power dissipated/ surface area

surface area = area of the two circular end  + area of the curve surface

=2*\frac{\pi D^{2} }{4} + \pi DL\\=2*\frac{\pi *(\frac{0.4}{100} )^{2} }{4} + \pi *\frac{0.4}{100} *\frac{1.5}{100}

= 2.136 *10^-4 m^{2}

Heat flux =\frac{0.6}{2.136 * 10^{-4} } = 2808.99 W/m^{2}

fraction of heat dissipated from the top and bottom surface

=\frac{\frac{2*\pi D^{2} }{4} }{\frac{2*\pi D^{2}}{4} + \pi DL } \\\\=\\\frac{\frac{2*\pi *(\frac{0.4}{100} )^{2} }{4} }{\frac{2*\pi *(\frac{0.4}{100}  )^{2} }{4} +\pi *\frac{0.4}{100} *\frac{1.5}{100} } \\\\=\frac{2.51*10^{-5} }{2.136*10^{-4} } \\\\\= 0.1175

=11.75%
