Homework Statement
a mouse is rinding on the rim of a 2.0kg wagon wheel that rotates freely in a horizontal plane at an angular frequency of 1.00 revs/sec. after riding there for a while, the mouse runs into the center, axis, of the wheel. the mass of mouse is 0.1kg and assume that all of...
Homework Statement
find the speed of a satillite in orbit 1000km above the Earth's surface.
mass of Earth 5.98*10^24kg
mass of satellite = 50.0kg
radius of earth=6.38*10^6m
Homework Equations
so i used V= square root of G*mass of earth/r
The Attempt at a Solution
V= square root...
ok i don't know if this is a type o or not but yes the acceleration due to gravity for the moon is ~1.62m/s^2 but in this prob, the radius is given @ 1.76*10^6 thus giving an acceleration due to gravity @ ~1.58m/s^2
and in using the above formula you gave me, X=Vot+.5at^2
is Vo my...
