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

What is the approximate pressure of a storage cylinder of recovered r-410a that does not contain any non-condensable impurities
Aliun [14]

Answer:

173psig

Explanation:

The storage cylinder of recovered R-410A is mixture of difluoromethane and pentafluoroethane which is used as a refrigerant in air conditioning application. The refrigeration sector has low temperatures for installation. The pressure of cylinder at 80 F will be 173 psig. The pure refrigerants have inside a container have saturation temperature which is equal to ambient temperature.

4. Dr. Copus is in charge of the cognition department at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. A new drug named Mem-Reen has beco
MrMuchimi

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

<u>Independent variable</u>: Type of drug (Mem-Reen or placebo)

<u>Dependent variable</u>: memories

<u>Experimental group</u>: The group that was given Mem-Reen

<u>Control group</u>: The group that was given placebo

<u>Constants</u>: Food, hours of sleep, memory test procedures.

The independent variable is an input variable that produces effects on the dependent variable. As the variable is changed, it produces different effects on the dependent variable.

The dependent variable is the actual variable that is measured during an experiment. It is the main purpose of setting-up of an experiment.

The experimental group is also referred to as the treatment group while the control group is the group that does not receive treatment at all or they receive fake treatment/placebo.

Constants are unchanging variables included in experiments. They remain unchanged both in the treatment and the control group, otherwise, the outcome of the experiment will be unreliable.

an iron rod of length 100m at 10 degree Celsius is used to measure a distance of 2km on a day when the temperature is 40 degree
german

Answer:

0.68 m

Explanation:

α = dL / L1*(dT)

dL = L1(dT) * α

Initial length, L1 = 100

Chang in Length =dL

α linear expansivity ; dL = change in length ; dT = change in temperature ; L1 = initial length

α of iron rod = 1.13 * 10^-5 k

dL = 100(40 - 10) * 1.13 * 10^-5

dL = 100(30) * 1.13 * 10^-5

dL = 3000 * 1.13 * 10^-5

dL = 3390 * 10^-5

dL = 0.0339 m

Error :

Distance measured = 2km = (2 * 1000) = 2000m

[Distance measured / (initial length + change in length)] × change in length

Error = (2000 / (100 + 0.0339)) * 0.0339

Error = (2000 / 100.0339) * 0.0339

Error = 19.993222 * 0.0339

Error = 0.6777702

Error = 0.68 m

A plate drops onto a smooth floor and shatters into three pieces of equal mass.Two of the pieces go off with equal speeds v at r
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

Speed of the this part is given as

v_3 = \sqrt2 v

Also the direction of the velocity of the third part of plate is moving along 135 degree with respect to one part of the moving plate

Explanation:

As we know by the momentum conservation of the system

we will have

P_1 + P_2 + P_3 = P_i

here we know that

P_1 = P_2

the momentum of two parts are equal in magnitude but perpendicular to each other

so we will have

P_1 + P_2 = \sqrt{P^2 + P^2}

P_1 + P_2 = \sqrt2 mv

now from above equation we have

P_3 = -(P_1 + P_2)

mv_3 = -(\sqrt 2 mv)

v_3 = \sqrt2 v

Also the direction of the velocity of the third part of plate is moving along 135 degree with respect to one part of the moving plate
