State the condition under which a satellite would move with escape velocity

1 answer:

7 0

When the launch velocity is a bit less than the escape velocity, the satellite with time will find itself back to earth and when the speed is far beyond the escape velocity, the satellite with time, be lost in space.

The velocity of escape from the less massive Moon is about 2.4 km per second at its surface. ... A planet (or satellite) cannot long retain an atmosphere if the planet's escape velocity is low enough to be near the average velocity of the gas molecules making up the atmosphere.

A string that is under 54.0 N of tension has linear density 5.20 g/m . A sinusoidal wave with amplitude 2.50 cm and wavelength 1

kicyunya [14]

Answer:

8.89288275 m/s

Explanation:

F = Tension = 54 N

$\mu$ = Linear density of string = 5.2 g/m

A = Amplitude = 2.5 cm

Wave velocity is given by

$v=\sqrt{\frac{F}{\mu}}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\frac{54}{5.2\times 10^{-3}}}\\\Rightarrow v=101.90493\ m/s$

Frequency is given by

$f=\frac{v}{\lambda}\\\Rightarrow f=\frac{101.90493}{1.8}\\\Rightarrow f=56.61385\ Hz$

Angular frequency is given by

$\omega=2\pi f\\\Rightarrow \omega=2\pi 56.61385\\\Rightarrow \omega=355.71531\ rad/s$

Maximum velocity of a particle is given by

$v_m=A\omega\\\Rightarrow v_m=0.025\times 355.71531\\\Rightarrow v_m=8.89288275\ m/s$

The maximum velocity of a particle on the string is 8.89288275 m/s

The electron gun in a television tube is used to accelerate electrons with mass 9.109 × 10−31 kg from rest to 3 × 107 m/s within

zaharov [31]

Answer:

Electric field, E = 40608.75 N/C

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of electrons, $m=9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg$

Initial speed of electron, u = 0

Final speed of electrons, $v=3\times 10^7\ m/s$

Distance traveled, s = 6.3 cm = 0.063 m

Firstly, we will find the acceleration of the electron using third equation of motion as :

$a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}$

$a=\dfrac{(3\times 10^7)^2}{2\times 0.063}$

$a=7.14\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2$

Now we will find the electric field required in the tube as :

$ma=qE$

$E=\dfrac{ma}{q}$

$E=\dfrac{9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 7.14\times 10^{15}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}$

E = 40608.75 N/C

So, the electric field required in the tube is 40608.75 N/C. Hence, this is the required solution.

Pigments are always made of natural materials

Kobotan [32]

It seems that you have missed the necessary options for us to answer this question so I had to look for it. Anyway, the answer to the given statement is FALSE. Pigments are NOT always made of natural materials. Pigments can either be man-made or the one that occurred naturally as what you see in our environment. Hope this helps.
