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.

(8%) problem 12. a bowling ball of mass mb 3 kg 's rolled down the lane with a velocity ofy-2/ m s lt strikes a single remaining pin mp 0.93 kg head on. after the collision the bowling ball has a velocity (in the same direction) of v2 1.1 m/s. = ▲ 33% part (a) write an expression for the velocity of pin in the horizontal direction after the impact, im ,, 33% part (b) what is the pins speed in ms? 33% part (c) assuming the coefficient of friction s μ,-0.1. how far in meters could the pin slide before stopping if it doesn't topple?

Amajor impediment to wide acceptance of electric vehicles even on the part of people who use their cars almost exclusively for commuting is the inability to use their electric vehicles for occasional extended trips. in an attempt to make purchasing electric vehicles more attractive to commuters, one electric vehicle producer is planning to offer customers three days free rental of a conventional car for every 1,000 miles that they drive their electric vehicle. which of the following, if true, most threatens the plan's prospects for success? (a) many electric vehicles that are used for commercial purposes are not needed for extended trips. (b) because a majority of commuters drive at least 100 miles a week, the cost to the producer of making good the offer would add considerably to the already high price of electric vehicles. (c) the relatively long time it takes to recharge the battery of an electric vehicle can easily be fitted into the regular patterns of car use characteristic of commuters. (d) although electric vehicles are essentially emission-free in actual use, generating the electricity necessary for charging an electric vehicle's battery can burden the environment. (e) some family vehicles are used primarily not for commuting but for making short local trips, such as to do errands.
