Answer:

Circle

Explanation:

Actually its Eclipse or ecliptial path.

Force varies inversely with square of distance.

Remember Gravitation?

  • F=GMm/r²

Yes

F is inversely proportional to r²

So it's eclipse

Recheck if a option given or circle is most likely correct

While standing on a bridge 40.0 m above the ground, you drop a stone from rest. when the stone has fallen 3.80 m, you throw a se
Norma-Jean [14]
Given: distance 1 d₁ = 40 m;  distance 2 d₂ = 3.8 m   g = -9.8 m/s²

 Initial Velocity Vi = 0  Final Velocity of stone 2 is unknown = ?

Total distance dₓ = d₁ - d₂  = 40 m - 3.8 m = 36.2 m

Formula: a = Vf² -  Vi²/2d   derive for Final Velocity Vf
 
acceleration is now due to gravity, therefore a = g

Vf = √2gd   Vf = √2(9.8 m/s²)(36.2 m)

Vf = 26.64 m/s  

Reason: The second stone will still start from rest.

A system undergoes a two-step process. In the first step, the internal energy of the system increases by 222 J when 150 J of wor
joja [24]

Answer:0 J

Explanation:

Given

For first step

change in internal Energy of the system is \Delta U_1=222 J

Work done on the system W_1=-150 J

For second step

change in internal Energy of the system is \Delta U_2=123 J

Work done on the system W_2=-195 J

Work done on the system is considered as Positive and vice-versa.

and from first law of thermodynamics

Q=\Delta U+W

for first step

Q_1=222-150=72 J

Q_2=123-195=-72 J

overall heat added=Q_1+Q_2

Q_{net}=72-72 =0

For overall Process Heat added is 0 J

A car with a mass of 1.50x10^3 kg starts from rest and accelerates to a speed of 18.0m/s in 12.0 s. assume that the force of res
Luden [163]
The first thing you should know for this case is the definition of distance.
 d = v * t
 Where,
 v = speed
 t = time
 We have then:
 d = v * t
 d = 9 * 12 = 108 m
 The kinetic energy is:
 K = ½mv²
 Where,
 m: mass
 v: speed
 K = ½ * 1500 * (18) ² = 2.43 * 10 ^ 5 J
 The work due to friction is
 w = F * d
 Where,
 F = Force
 d = distance:
 w = 400 * 108 = 4.32 * 10 ^ 4
 The power will be:
 P = (K + work) / t
 Where,
 t: time
 P = 2.86 * 10 ^ 5/12 = 23.9 kW
 answer:
 the average power developed by the engine is 23.9 kW
