Recent research indicates that the variation in solar output .

To place a communications satellite into a geosynchronous orbit at an altitude of 22,240 mi above the surface of the earth, the satellite first is released from a space shuttle , which is in a circular orbit at an altitude of 185 mi, and then is propelled by an upper-stage booster to its final altitude. as the satellite passes through a, the booster's motor is fired to insert the satellite into an elliptic transfer orbit. the booster is again fired at b to insert the satellite into a geosynchronous orbit. knowing that the second firing increases the speed of the satellite by 4810ft/s, determine (a.) the speed of the satellite as it approaches b on the elliptic transfer orbit, (b.) the increase in speed resulting from the first firing at a.

Adistance-time graph indicates than an object moves 100 m in 4 s and then remains at rest for 6 s. what is the average speed of the object?

Scientists and engineers design new technologies to solve problems. often, a new technological design will contain a flaw. which of the following is true about such a flaw? a. it should be studied so that the design can be fixed or a new design can be proposed. b. it means that the problem being investigated cannot be solved. c. it means that the people who proposed the design should not be scientists or engineers. d. it makes the technological design useless.
