Radiation is energy that comes from a source and travels through space at the speed of light. This energy has an electric field and a magnetic field associated with it, and has wave-like properties. You could also call radiation “electromagnetic waves”.

NASA has asked your team of rocket scientists about the feasibility of a new satellite launcher that will save rocket fuel. NASA
kkurt [141]

Answer:

The answer is "q=0.0945\,C".

Explanation:

Its minimum velocity energy is provided whenever the satellite(charge 4 q) becomes 15 m far below the square center generated by the electrode (charge q).

U_i=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0} \times \frac{4\times4q^2}{\sqrt{(15)^2+(5/\sqrt2)^2}}

It's ultimate energy capacity whenever the satellite is now in the middle of the electric squares:

U_f=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\ \times \frac{4\times4q^2}{( \frac{5}{\sqrt{2}})}

Potential energy shifts:

= U_f -U_i \\\\ =\frac{16q^2}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\left ( \frac{\sqrt2}{5}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{(15)^2+( \frac{5}{\sqrt{2})^2)}}\right ) \\\\   =\frac{16q^2}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\left ( \frac{\sqrt2}{5}-\frac{1}{ 15 +( \frac{5}{2})}}\right )\\\\ =\frac{16q^2}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\left ( \frac{\sqrt2}{5}-\frac{1}{ (\frac{30+5}{2})}}\right )\\\\

=\frac{16q^2}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\left ( \frac{\sqrt2}{5}-\frac{1}{ (\frac{35}{2})}}\right )\\\\=\frac{16q^2}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\left ( \frac{\sqrt2}{5}-\frac{1}{17.5}}\right )\\\\ =\frac{16q^2}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\left ( \frac{ 24.74- 5 }{87.5}}\right )\\\\ =\frac{16q^2}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\left ( \frac{ 19.74- 5 }{87.5}}\right )\\\\ =\frac{4q^2}{\pi\epsilon_0}\left ( 0.2256 }\right )\\\\= \frac{0.28 \times q^2}{ \epsilon_0}\\\\=q^2\times31.35 \times10^9\,J

Now that's the energy necessary to lift a satellite of 100 kg to 300 km across the surface of the earth.

=\frac{GMm}{R}-\frac{GMm}{R+h} \\\\=(6.67\times10^{-11}\times6.0\times10^{24}\times100)\left(\frac{1}{6400\times1000}-\frac{1}{6700\times1000} \right ) \\\\ =(6.67\times10^{-11}\times6.0\times10^{26})\left(\frac{1}{64\times10^{5}}-\frac{1}{67\times10^{5}} \right ) \\\\=(6.67\times6.0\times10^{15})\left(\frac{67 \times 10^{5} - 64 \times 10^{5}  }{ 4,228 \times10^{5}} \right ) \\\\

=( 40.02\times10^{15})\left(\frac{3 \times 10^{5}}{ 4,228 \times10^{5}} \right ) \\\\ =40.02 \times10^{15} \times 0.0007 \\\\

\\\\ =0.02799\times10^{10}\,J \\\\= q^2\times31.35\times10^{9} \\\\ =0.02799\times10^{10} \\\\q=0.0945\,C

This satellite is transmitted by it system at a height of 300 km and not in orbit, any other mechanism is required to bring the satellite into space.

Of the planets with atmospheres, which is the warmest?<br> a. Venusb. Earthc. Marsd. Jupiter
tangare [24]

The Atmosphere in Jupiter is full of gases that move at high speeds in giant eddies. Its atmosphere consists mostly of gases such as hydrogen that generate a temperature fluctuation of around 128K.

On Earth, due to the protection of the Ozone Layer and the presence of Nitrogen and Oxygen, the temperature fluctuates by an average of 300K.

In the case of Mars, its atmosphere is thin, mostly composed of Carbon Dioxide and Diatomic Nitrogen, which allow a temperature oscillation of 210K.

In contrast, the atmosphere of Venus is thick and is composed of carbon dioxide that does not allow the sun's rays to escape, generating an extreme 'greenhouse effect' with temperatures ranging from 737K,

Correct Answer is A.

A racecar driver steps on the gas, and his racecar travels 20 meters in 2 seconds starting from rest. The acceleration of the ra
givi [52]

Answer:

2.5m/s^2

Explanation:

Step one:

given

distance = 20meters

time = 2 seconds

initial velocity u= 0m/s

let us solve for the final velocity

velocity = distance/time

velocity= 20/2

velocity= 10m/s

v^2=u^2+2as\\\\10^2=0^2+2*a*20\\\\100=40a

divide both sides by 40

a= 100/40\\\\a=10/4\\\\a= 5/2\\\\a= 2.5m/s^2
