Answer:
a) 6636 km
b) 0.0154
Explanation:
The height above the earth at its furthest point is 368 km
The height above the earth at its closest point is 164 km
Radius of the Earth is 6370 km
The distance of the satellite from the center of the earth to the furthest point is 6370 + 368 km = 6738 km
The distance of the satellite from the center of the earth to the closest point is 6370 + 164 = 6534 km
If we add together the sum of the distance of the satellite from the furthest and its closest distance, it is equal to the 2 major semi axis.
Basically,
2a = R + r
a = (R + r) / 2
a = (6738 + 6534) / 2
a = 13272 / 2
a = 6636 km
Eccentricity, e = (a - r) / a
Eccentricity, e = (6636 - 6534) / 6636
Eccentricity, e = 102 / 6636
Eccentricity, e = 0.0154
Answer:
Light's angle of refraction = 37.1° (Approx.)
Explanation:
Given:
Index of refraction = 1.02
Base of refraction = 1
Angle of incidence = 38°
Find:
Light's angle of refraction
Computation:
Using Snell's law;
Sin[Angle of incidence] / Sin[Light's angle of refraction] = Index of refraction / Base of refraction
Sin38 / Light's angle of refraction = 1.02 / 1
Sin[Light's angle of refraction] = Sin 38 / 1.02
Sin[Light's angle of refraction] = [0.6156] / 1.02
Sin[Light's angle of refraction] = 0.6035
Light's angle of refraction = 37.1° (Approx.)
Answer:
a. wavelength of the sound, 
b. observed frequecy, 
Given:
speed of sound source,
= 80 m/s
speed of sound in air or vacuum,
= 343 m/s
speed of sound observed,
= 0 m/s
Solution:
From the relation:
v =
(1)
where
v = velocity of sound
= observed frequency of sound
= wavelength
(a) The wavelength of the sound between source and the listener is given by:
(2)
(b) The observed frequency is given by:


(3)
Using eqn (2) and (3):


Answer:
355 m/s
Explanation:
Distance = 605 km
Initial speed =
= 284 m/s
Final velocity =
= 426 m/s
Average speed = ?
There is two method two find average speed. In first method, using 3rd equation of motion, we find acceleration.

Then using first equation of motion, we find time

Then using the formula of average velocity, we find average velocity

Second method is very simple


355 m/s
