Determine the value that has the largest total energy. Assuming that the orbirts are circular. (a) 1000 kg satellite at geosynchronous orbit (b) 1000 kg satellite in low earth orbit—roughly 300 km (c) 500 kg satellite at geosynchronous orbit (d) A 500 kg...

Determine the energy neded to put 5kg, initially at rest on Earth's surface, into geosynchronous orbit. I get 2.9*10^8 where did I gow wrong?

A sledthat has a mass of 8.8kg moves horizontally at 20 km/h. When it passes under a bridge 13kg of snow drops ontothe sled. What is its subsequent speed? Isn't this in inellastic collision equation. I used (m1v1)+(m2v2)=(m1+m2)(vf) m1=8.8kg v1=20km/h m2=...

Determine the center of mass of a raft if a 72kg paddle is 0.81m from the stern and the 48kg paddle is 4.5m from the stern? Neglect the mass of the canoe itself. How far is the center of mass from the stern? Do i use the formula x=(m1x1+m2x2)/M m1=72kg x1...

A 69kg skateboarder, at rest on a frictionless surface, throws a 4.0kg rock with the velocity given by v=3(i hat)+4(jhat), where the x and y axes are both in the horizontal plane. What is the x component of the subsequent velocity of the skateboarder? WHa...

A wheel spins on a horizontal axis, with an angular spped of 140rad/s and with its angular velocity pointing east. Determine the magnitude of the angular velocity after an angular acceleration of 35 rad/s^2, pointing 68 degress west of north, with a time...

A team is chosen to design an orbiting space station that is shaped like a wheel 5o meters in diameter with is mass of 4*10^5 kg contained in the rim portion of the wheel. The space station will rotate at a rate such that a person working in the wheel wil...

Find equation of the line that goes through (11,5) with slope m= 2/7

What is the area of a circle with a circumference of 2π^2 square meters?

URGENT: Can anyone please show me how to write this code in python?? Prompt: Recall that when the built-in function float() is called it returns a floating-point number constructed from a number or string. However, if the string doesn’t represent a valid...

I am getting .625m/s with your way, but the choices I have are a. 2.0 m/s b. 1.0 m/s c. 3.2 m/s d. 4.9 m/s e. 3.9 m/s

I do not understand what you mean by "The direction tangent can be obtained from the ratio of the components."

I mean sorry but I still don't seem to understand
