Anything that's dropped on or near the Earth accelerates at the rate of
9.8 m/s² on its way down. The mass of the object makes no difference.
After falling for 2 seconds, it's falling at the rate of 19.6 m/s.
Momentum = (mass) x (speed)
The egg's momentum is (5.07 kg) x (19.6 m/s) = 99.4 kg-m/s .

Answer:
(a) 11.66 square meters per liter
(b) 11657.8 per meters
(c) 0.00211 gal per square feet
Explanation:
(a) 475ft^2/gal = 475ft^2/gal × (1m/3.2808ft)^2 × 1gal/3.7854L = 11.66m^2/L
(b) 475ft^2/gal = 475ft^2/gal × (1m/3.2808ft)^2 × 264.17gal/1m^3 = 11657.8/m
(c) Inverse of 475ft^2/gal = 1/475ft^3/gal = 0.00211gal/ft^3
Answer:
(E) a greatly increased number of small particles in Earth’s orbit would result in a blanket of reflections that would make certain valuable telescope observations impossible
Explanation:
The trade is one strong reflection for many weak reflections (and more dangerous near-Earth space travel).
None of the answer choices except the last one has anything to do with the effect of exploding a satellite. When you are arguing that exploding a satellite is ill conceived, you need to address specifically the effects of exploding the satellite.
