Rearranging Formulas for Orbital Velocity and Radius
((Δλ/λ0)c)2 = GM/r ((Δλ/λ0)c)2 x r = GM totally not sure- dukg08

Rearranging Formulas for Orbital Velocity and Radius
I'm trying to make r the subject. ((Δλ/λ0)c)2/r = GM r = ((Δλ/λ0)c)2xGM- dukg08

Rearranging Formulas for Orbital Velocity and Radius
((Δλ/λ0)c)2 = GM/r So do I multiply the r to both sides now or remove the root? (Δλ/λ0)c = √(GM/r) or ((Δλ/λ0)c)2/r = GM- dukg08

Earths Energy & rate of absorbtion
Homework Statement (a) Virtually all of the energy used on Earth derives originally from the Sun and solar radiation is intercepted at 1370 W m−2 at the top of the atmosphere, and that 49% of this radiation is absorbed by the Earth’s surface. Assuming that a shallow dish containing ice or...- dukg08

Energy conversions - wind up radio
so the following: (i) The user turns a handle that winds a metal spring onto a spool. - chemical energy in the body to kinetic energy in turning the handle to spring potential energy (ii) The metal spring then unwinds slowly, through a number of gears, rapidly turning the spindle of a...- dukg08

So the battery would be ‘stored electrical energy’? What is the generator then? (iv) can’t be right if the battery is ‘stored electrical energy’ can it? Is (iii) the wrong way round?- dukg08

Energy conversions - wind up radio
Homework Statement (a) The wind-up radio is a wonderful example of the process of energy transformation from one type to another. The radio is operated as follows: (i) The user turns a handle that winds a metal spring onto a spool. (ii) The metal spring then unwinds slowly, through a...- dukg08
