Velocity?

Homework Statement In order for the enterprise to use its transporter it must be in synchronous orbit over the beam-down point. What heigh above the planet Mars must the enterprise be for a synchronous orbit? Homework Equations Please, can someone tell me for future reference what I should use...

Ugh, whatever. Thank you so much for all the replies and advice. I think I'm just going to ask my teacher the next time I see him.

Yes, well...we did it with metal weights on a slip of cardboard. I think the teacher just said to put down the mass of the weights... and yeah it was weird. I'm so pissed. The teacher just printed off some online lab and didn't even use the same materials.

I think so... struggling to think right now... does that mean then that the kinetic friction is just the negative kinetic force??

Thank you for showing me that diagram. It does, more or less, but um right now I'm finding it hard to calculate things/think right now without some sort of formula I can just paste on my work and use... is there anything you can think of that can just 'convert' it for me...?

Tbh I don't really know what I'm doing, sorry. I tried to just follow what my other group members wrote down (I was incredibly tired because I was fighting off a cold) and just left the columns that were already filled on the paper we were given the same. I think the teacher mentioned that we...

Well...that's the problem...frankly, I'm not sure what to do in order to get the Friction I guess... like, do I multiply the mass by the force of gravity and subtract it from the force applied? Is it the same as the static Friction? Should I use the coefficient from the static Friction to get...

Ok. Actually, here is the whole thing if that clarifies things...

I did for the analysis questions...

Homework Statement Hi, we had a Lab Activity on the Coefficient of Friction, but right now I am really confused and stuck. Since the teacher used an online resource, we are supposed to make two graphs based off the data and it's very unclear and unhelpful. :( I can't seem to find anything at...

I think I got it, thanks.

Homework Statement I just can't seem to find anything that I can relate to for solving this problem and it's giving me a headache. I don't even know how to start solving this question. Please help: A man drags a package across the floor with a force of 40 N. The mass of the package is 10 kg...

Crap, you're right. I probably shouldn't have started this assignment at 9, I made a few mistakes in other questions (such as sin-1(# + #) instead of sin-1(#/#) ) lol, thanks for pointing that out!

1. Homework Statement So the problem is: A woman walks 440 m at 50° S of W and then 580 m at 60° N of E. The entire trip required 15 minutes. A. What was the total distance (I already got the answer to this) B. What was the displacement of the woman?Homework Equations I'm almost positive I did...
