What are the advantages of friction?

In order to place a satellite into orbit, it requires enough fuel to supply the necessary mechanical energy. into what types of mechanical energy does the fuel get transformed?

A-4.60 μc charge is moving at a constant speed of 6.80×105 m/s in the +x−direction relative to a reference frame. at the instant when the point charge is at the origin, what is the magnetic-field vector it produces at the following points.

Asheet of steel 1.5 mm thick has nitrogen atmospheres on both sides at 1200oc and is permitted to achieve a steady-state diffusion condition. the diffusion coefficient for nitrogen in steel at this temperature is 6 x 10- 11 m2 /s, and the diffusion flux is found to be 1.2 x 10-7 kg/m2 -s. also, it is known that the concentration of nitrogen in the steel at the high-pressure surface is 4 kg/m3 . how far into the sheet from this high-pressure side will the concentration be 2.0 kg/m3 ? assume a linear concentration profile.
