Asatellite of mass m is moving in a circular orbit around the earth at a constant speed v and at an altitude h above the earth's surface. a. find the speed of a satellite orbiting the earth 1000 km above its surface. the radius of the earth rearth = 6371 km is and its mass is mearth = 5.98x1024 kg .

The satellite executes a rotation motion around the earth, because Earth's force of attraction plays the role of centripetal force:

Fa=Fcp=>k*Mp*m/(Rp+r)²=mv²/(Rp+r)=>v=√(k*Mp/(Rp+r))=√(6.67*10⁻¹¹*5.98*10²⁴/(6371*10³+1000*10³))=√(39.88*10¹³/(7371*10³))=√(5.41*10⁷)=7355.53 m/s

a coal burning power plant

answer: 802.3 kilo joules of energy represents 191.75 kilo calorie of energy.

explanation:

energy released during combustion of one mole methane = 802.3 kilo joules

if 1 kilo joule = 0.239006   kilo calorie

then ,802.3 kilo joule will be = 802.30.239006 kilo calorie

802.3 kilo joule = 191.75 kilo calorie

hence, the energy in kilo calorie is 191.75 kilo calorie.
