A satellite that orbits Earth with a speed of v0 must be in an orbit of radius 8RE to maintain a circular orbit, where RE is the

radius of Earth and is equal to 6.4×106m. What must be the radius of orbit for the same satellite in order for it to maintain a circular orbit and travel at a speed of 2v0 ?

Answer:

1.024 × 10⁸ m

Explanation:

The velocity v₀ of the orbit 8RE is v₀ = 8REω where ω = angular speed.

So, ω =  v₀/8RE

For the orbit with radius R for it to maintain a circular orbit and velocity 2v₀, we have

2v₀ = Rω

substituting ω =  v₀/8RE into the equation, we have

2v₀ = v₀R/8RE

dividing both sides by v₀, we have

2v₀/v₀ = R/8RE

2 = R/8RE

So, R = 2 × 8RE

R = 16RE

substituting RE = 6.4 × 10⁶ m

R = 16RE

= 16 × 6.4 × 10⁶ m

= 102.4 × 10⁶ m

= 1.024 × 10⁸ m

What is the volume of an irregularly shaped object that has a mass 3.0 grams and a density of 6.0 g/mL
pogonyaev

Answer: The volume of an irregularly shaped object is 0.50 ml

Explanation:

To calculate the volume, we use the equation:

\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}

Density of object = 6.0g/ml

mass of object = 3.0 g

Volume of object = ?

Putting in the values we get:

6.0g/ml=\frac{3.0g}{\text{Volume of substance}}

{\text{Volume of substance}}=0.50ml

Thus the volume of an irregularly shaped object is 0.50 ml

Two wires are stretched between two fixed supports and have the same length. One wire A there is a second-harmonic standing wave
lina2011 [118]

(a) Greater

The frequency of the nth-harmonic on a string is an integer multiple of the fundamental frequency, f_1:

f_n = n f_1

So we have:

- On wire A, the second-harmonic has frequency of f_2 = 660 Hz, so the fundamental frequency is:

f_1 = \frac{f_2}{2}=\frac{660 Hz}{2}=330 Hz

- On wire B, the third-harmonic has frequency of f_3 = 660 Hz, so the fundamental frequency is

f_1 = \frac{f_3}{3}=\frac{660 Hz}{3}=220 Hz

So, the fundamental frequency of wire A is greater than the fundamental frequency of wire B.

(b) f_1 = \frac{v}{2L}

For standing waves on a string, the fundamental frequency is given by the formula:

f_1 = \frac{v}{2L}

where

v is the speed at which the waves travel back and forth on the wire

L is the length of the string

(c) Greater speed on wire A

We can solve the formula of the fundamental frequency for v, the speed of the wave:

v=2Lf_1

We know that the two wires have same length L. For wire A, f_1 = 330 Hz, while for wave B, f_B = 220 Hz, so we can write the ratio between the speeds of the waves in the two wires:

\frac{v_A}{v_B}=\frac{2L(330 Hz)}{2L(220 Hz)}=\frac{3}{2}

So, the waves travel faster on wire A.

To practice Problem-Solving Strategy 25.1 Power and Energy in Circuits. A device for heating a cup of water in a car connects to
jeyben [28]

Answer:

The time to boil the water is 877 s

Explanation:

The first thing we must do is calculate the external resistance (R) of the circuit, from the description we notice that it is a series circuit, by which the resistors are added

    V = i (r + R)

We replace we calculate

     r + R = V / i

     R = v / i - r

     R = 10/12 -0.04

     R = 0.793 Ω

We calculate the power supplied

     P = V i = I² R

     P = 12² 0.793

     P = 114 W

This is the power dissipated in the external resistance

We use the relationship, that power is work per unit of time and that work is the variation of energy

     P = E / t

     t = E / P

     t = 100 10³/114

     t = 877 s

The time to boil the water is 877 s

A harmonic wave travels in the positive x direction at 6 m/s along a taught string. A fixed point on the string oscillates as a
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

Amplitude, A = 0.049 meters

Explanation:

Given that,

A harmonic wave travels in the positive x direction at 6 m/s along a taught string. A fixed point on the string oscillates as a function of time according to the equation :

y = 0.049 \cos(7t) .......(1)

The general equation of a wave is given by :

y=A\cos(\omega t) .......(2)

A is amplitude of wave

On comparing equation (1) and (2) we get :

A = 0.049 meters

So, the amplitude of the wave is 0.049 meters.
