GIVEN:

The radius of the orbit, R = 4200km.

The time taken to revolve around the Earth, T = 24hr(1day).

ANSWER:

We know that the speed of the satellite,

v = Circumference of the orbit/Time taken

2πR/T
2 × 3.14 × 4200km/24hr
1099km/hr
1099kmph.

a fan is rotating clockwise and its acceleration has a positive sign. is the angular velocity of the fan speeding up, slowing do

balu736 [363]

Answer:

The angular velocity is slowing down.

Explanation:

By convention, if a rigid body is rotating clockwise, the angular velocity is negative.
If the angular acceleration has a positive sign, since the angular acceleration and the angular velocity have opposite signs, this means that the angular velocity is slowing down.

The kinetic energy as measured in the Earth reference frame is 6.704*10^22 Joules.

To find the answer, we have to know about the Lorentz transformation.

<h3>What is its kinetic energy as measured in the Earth reference frame?</h3>

It is given that, an alien spaceship traveling at 0.600 c toward the Earth, in the same direction the landing craft travels with a speed of 0.800 c relative to the mother ship. We have to find the kinetic energy as measured in the Earth reference frame, if the landing craft has a mass of 4.00 × 10⁵ kg.

$V_x'=0.8c\\V=0.6c\\m=4*10^5kg$

Let us consider the earth as S frame and space craft as S' frame, then the expression for KE will be,

$KE=m_0c^2=\frac{mc^2}{1-(\frac{v_x^2}{c^2} )}$

So, to $V_x=(0.8+0.6)c-[\frac{0.6c*(0.8c)^2}{c^2}]=1.016$ find the KE, we have to find the value of speed of the approaching landing craft with respect to the earth frame.
We have an expression from Lorents transformation for relativistic law of addition of velocities as,
