Answer:

  toward the center of the circular curve

Explanation:

An object will follow a circular path at constant speed if and only if its net acceleration is constant and directed toward the center of the curved path.

__

The result force is directed toward the center of the circle.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

If any part of the result force is in the direction of motion, the speed will not be constant. If the center-directed force is not constant, the path will not be circular.

How did astronomers precisely determine the length of an Astronomical Unit in the 1960s?
zaharov [31]

Answer:

Use of telemetry and radar astronomy

Explanation:

An astronomical Unit (AU) is a unit of measuring distances in outer space, which is based on the approximate distance between the earth and the Sun.

After several years of trying to approximate the distance between the Sun and the Earth using several methods based on geometry and some other calculations, advancements in technology made available the presence of special motoring equipment, which can be placed in outer space to remotely monitor and measure the position of the sun.

The use of direct radar measurements to the sun (radar astronomy) have also made the determination of the AU more accurate.

A standard radar pulse of known speed is sent to the Sun, and the time with which it takes to return is measured,  once this is recorded, the distance between the Earth and the Sun can be calculated using

distance = speed X time.

However, most of these means have to be corrected for parallax errors

a force 2.4E2 N exists between a positive charge of 8E-5 C and a positive charge of 3E-5 C. What distance separates the charges?
Verdich [7]

The distance between the two charges is 0.3 m

Explanation:

The electrostatic force between two charged objects is given by Coulomb's law:

F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where:

k=8.99\cdot 10^9 Nm^{-2}C^{-2} is the Coulomb's constant

q_1, q_2 are the charges of the two objects

r is the separation between the two charges

In this problem, we are given the following:

q_1 = 8\cdot 10^{-5} C

q_2 = 3\cdot 10^{-5} C

F=2.4\cdot 10^2 N

Therefore, we can rearrange the equation to solve for r, the distance between the two charges:

r=\sqrt{\frac{kq_1 q_2}{F}}=\sqrt{\frac{(8.99\cdot 10^9)(8\cdot 10^{-5})(3\cdot 10^{-5})}{2.4\cdot 10^2}}=0.3 m
