The principle of the geostationary satellite is its period of rotation is the same as that of the earth.
+ mω2r = 0
⇒ (R + h )
h works out to 36000 km.
If a solid sphere of mass 1 kg and radius 0.1 m rolls without slipping at a uniform velocity of I m/s along a straight line on a horizontal floor, the kinetic energy is

In the diagram shown below all three rods are of equal length Land equal mass M. The system is rotated such that rod B is the axis. What is the moment of inertia of the system?
ML2
The direction of the angular velocity vector is along
the tangent to the circular path
the inward radius
the outward radius
the axis of rotation
A man of mass 60 kg records his wt on a weighing machine placed inside a lift. The ratio of wts. of man recorded when lift is ascending up with a uniform speed of 2 m/s to when it is descending down with a uniform speed of 4 m/s will be
