A satellite with a mass of 5.6 E 5 kg is orbiting the Earth in a circular path. Determine the satellite's velocity if it is orbiting at a distance of 6.8 E 5 m above the Earth's surface. Earth's mass = 5.98 E 24 kg; Earth's radius = 6.357 E 6 m.A) 6,800 m/s
B) 7,200 m/s
C) 7,500 m/s
D) 7,900 m/s

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

C) 7,500 m/s

Explanation:

The satellite's acceleration due to gravity equals its centripetal acceleration.

v² / r = GM / r²

Solving for velocity:

v² = GM / r

v = √(GM / r)

Given:

G = 6.67×10⁻¹¹ m³/kg/s²

M = 5.98×10²⁴ kg

r = 6.357×10⁶ m + 6.8×10⁵ m = 7.037×10⁶ m

Substituting the values:

v = √(6.67×10⁻¹¹ × 5.98×10²⁴ / 7.037×10⁶)

v = √(5.67×10⁷)

v = 7500 m/s

ASAP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST Take a piece of paper, some nails and a magnet bar, place a magnet at the centre of the paper, and sprinkle the nails. Observe what will happen to the nails and what other phenomena you can observe.

Answers

Answer: find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

When a magnet is placed at the centre of the paper, and the nails are sprinkled on the paper, what will happen to the nails is that, the nails will form a pattern on the paper according to the magnetic field of the bar magnetic pole.

Other phenomena you can observe are:

1.) The nails will align themselves and show some lines of forces which is equivalent to the magnetic field lines

2.) The direction of the line of forces

3.) The strength of the magnetic field pole.

How many points does it take to determine a plane? one two three four

Answers

Answer: Three

A plane requires minimum three points for its determination. These three points should  be non-collinear or the third point should not lie in same line as made with any two points. By joining two points, a line is formed. A point is one dimensional.

By joining minimum three non-co-linear points, a plane can be formed.

Given three non-collinearpoints in space, they uniquely define a plane. The correct option is C.

Three-dimensional space requires at least three non-collinear points in order to establish a plane. Any additional points would also lie on the plane formed by these three points.

This is due to the fact that a plane is a two-dimensional surface that can go on forever. We define a plane that traverses all three points by joining three non-collinear points.

Their positions when combined result in a flat, continuous surface. More points would simply serve to confirm the plane's definition rather than alter it. Because of this, three points are sufficient to build a plane in three dimensions.

Thus, the correct option is C.

'When we see something that exists in real life, there are many different ways to display imagery and importance using art. What the artist _____________ depends on what he/she wants to communicate.'

Answers

Answer:

Emphasizes

Explanation:

The expression of an art is intelligible to those that understand it, as such to make an impression an artist has to emphasize the point they want to communicate

An art is an expression of the personal experiences of the artist or a reaction to events or to reveal the realities as seen by the artist such as global warming and the environment, so as to get the attention of people with the goal to change them, such that a good art changes the most people, hence the need for emphasis.

I'm really confused about waves and I can't identify the period, frequency, velocity etc in a word problem. Please give examples with units!!! I'm failing science rn!!

Answers

Period is defined as the time required to complete one cycle which is also related to frequency. Period is presented by an equation P = 1/f where p is the period, and f is the frequency. The unit is in second. Frequency is defined as the number of circular revolutions in a given time interval and it is in Hertz (Hz) = 1s^-1. Velocity s defined as the arc traveled at a given time with the equation v=l/t where v is the velocity, l is the length and t is time. The unit is in m/s.
