Answer :
he gravitational force acting on the satellite, with a mass of 76 kg and an acceleration of 0.52 m/s2, is 39.52 Newtons.
The gravitational force on the satellite can be found using Newton's law of universal gravitation, which is given by the formula
- F = ma,
where
- F is the gravitational force,
- m is the mass of the satellite, and
- a is its acceleration.
Given that the mass of the satellite is 76 kg and the acceleration is 0.52 m/s2, the gravitational force (F) on the satellite is:
F = m *a = 76 kg*0.52 m/s2
= 39.52 N.
Therefore, the gravitational force acting on the satellite is 39.52 Newtons.
