<u>Answer:</u>

The altitude of planet = 5989.198 km

<u>Explanation:</u>

    We know that centripetal acceleration, a = v^2/r, where v is the velocity and r is the radius. In this case both acceleration and velocity is given, so we can find radius of satellite.

    v = 20 Mm/hr = 20*10^6/3600 = 5555.56 m/s

    a = 2.5 m/s^2

 So,  2.5 = 5555.56^2/r\\ \\ r = 12345698.77 m = 12345.698km

 We have diameter of earth = 12713 km

        Radius of earth = 12713/2 = 6356.5 km

   The altitude of planet = Radius of planet - radius of earth

                                         = 12345.698 - 6356.5

                                         = 5989.198 km

What volume in milliliters will 0.00922 g of h2 gas occupy at stp?
Nadusha1986 [10]
Assuming that this gas is in ideal state, we can use the relation that for every 1 mol of an ideal gas it would have a volume of 22.4 L. But before using this, relation we need to convert the number of grams of H2 into moles by using the molar mass of 2.02 g/mol.

moles H2 = 0.00922 g ( 1 mol / 2.02 g ) = 0.005 mol H2

Volume H2 at STP = 0.005 mol H2 ( 22.4 L / 1 mol ) = 0.102 L of H2

1. Use Coulomb’s Law (equation below) to calculate the approximate force felt by an electron at point A in the schematic below.
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the data it appears that A is the middle point between two charges.

First of all we shall calculate the field at point A .

Field due to charge -Q ( 6e⁻ ) at A

= 9 x 10⁹ x 6 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ / (2.5)² x 10⁻⁴

= 13.82 x 10⁻⁶ N/C

Its direction will be towards Q⁻

Same field will be produced by Q⁺ charge . The direction will be away

from Q⁺  towards Q⁻ .

We shall add the field  to get the resultant field  .

= 2 x 13.82 x 10⁻⁶

= 27.64 x 10⁻⁶ N/C

Force on electron put at A

= charge x field

= 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 27.64 x 10⁻⁶

= 44.22 x 10⁻²⁵ N

On Ramesh’s13th birthday, his father invited all his friends and their relatives. It was a big party with lots of food and DJs.
Lerok [7]

Answer:

The first fact to understand which carries the most weight is we share this small world. We all have such similar characteristics that if you listed them all in one column and then list traits that make each person an absolute individual, one of the lists would be liken to an encyclopedia where as the other more akin to a doodle on a napkin in comparison. Now to the question.

Explanation:

We all know inherently the rules, so to say. yes its acceptable to do as people do normally. to go outside those bounds on purpose to be a nuisance intentionally is not. like 3am loud pounding music or downright disrespect is not acceptable. because when its done that way, since we all know the unspoken rules, its is being done on purpose to annoy.
