An extraterrestrial civilisation lives on a planet with a very elliptical orbit. Additionally, thousands of large asteroids orbi

t their solar system. The civilisation uses the light from their home star to count the number of asteroids in the direct line between the star and their planet. For a first measurement, they count the asteroids for 60 days and detect 1000 objects. Several months later, they start a second measurement: This time, they count for 80 days. How many asteroids will they detect during the second measurement? Explain why. (Note: Assume that the asteroids are homogeneously distributed in their solar system.)

According to Keplar's second law of planetary motion, "The areas swept by the radial vector connecting the star (sun) and the planet orbiting it are equal for equal intervals of time

For Kepler's third law this can be solved as normal ratios

  • 1000/60=x/80
  • 100/6=x/80
  • 6x=8000
  • x=8000/6
  • x=1333.34asteroids

What happens to ar object in free fall?​
Inessa05 [86]
Energy from the gravitational potential store in converted to kinetic energy. Air friction acts against the object, dissipating some energy as heat or sound. The object will continuously accelerate until the acceleration is equal to the air friction acting against it. This is when it reaches terminal velocity

What is the main difference between the following two velocities: 7 m/s and -7m/s?
Serjik [45]

The difference between the above velocities is that they exist in opposite direction of each other. or it can be said that they are negative vectors of each other.

g A change in the initial _____ of a projectile changes the range and maximum height of the projectile.​
docker41 [41]

Answer:

Velocity.

Explanation:

Projectile motion is characterized as the motion that an object undergoes when it is thrown into the air and it is only exposed to acceleration due to gravity.

As per the question, 'any change in the initial velocity of the projectile(object having gravity as the only force) would lead to a change in the range as well as the maximum height of the projectile.' To illustrate numerically:

Horizontal range: As per expression:

R= (u^{2}*sin2θ)/g

the range depending on the square of the initial velocity.

Maximum height: As per expression:

H= (u^{2} * sin^{2}θ )/2g

the maximum distance also depends upon square of the initial velocity.
