Answer:

11760 joules

Explanation:

Given

Mass (m) = 75kg

Height (h) = 16m

Required

Determine the increment in potential energy (PE)

This is calculated as thus:

PE = mgh

Where g = 9.8m/s²

Substitute values for m, g and h.

P.E = 75 * 9.8 * 16

P.E = 11760 joules

What is the kinetic energy of a 200 kg satellite as it follows a circular orbit of radius 8x106m around the earth?
motikmotik
Given the equation for the Speed of a Satellite

v = SqRt{Gravitational Constant}{Mass of Earth} divided by the radius given in your problem

we have:


(square root whole term on right side)

v = G Me
———
r


so. (6.67x10^-11)(5.97x10^24)
___________________
(8.0x10^6)


v = 7055 m/s (which is reasonable)


so utilize the Kinetic Energy Formula


KE = 1/2mv^2


KE = 1/2(200)(7055)^2


KE = 4.977x10^9 J

On average, how many stars would we have to search before we would expect to hear a signal? assume there are 500 billion stars i
Keith_Richards [23]

We would have to search at least 5,000,000,000 (5 billion) stars before we would expect to hear a signal.

To find out the number of stars that we will need to search to find a signal, we need to use the following formula:

  • total of stars/civilizations
  • 500,000,000,000 (500 billion) stars / 100 civilization = 5,000,000,000 (5 billion)

This shows it is expected to find a civilization every 5 billion stars, and therefore it is necessary to search at least 5 billion stars before hearing a signal from any civilization.

Note: This question is incomplete; here is the complete question.

On average, how many stars would we have to search before we would expect to hear a signal? Assume there are 500 billion stars in the galaxy.

Assuming 100 civilizations existed.
