Answer:

When it's closest to the sun.

Explanation:

The force of gravity acting on a planet is equal to its mass times its centripetal acceleration.

Fg = m v^2 / r

The force of gravity is defined by Newton's law of universal gravitation as:

Fg = mMG / r^2

Therefore:

mMG / r^2 = m v^2 / r

MG / r = v^2

v increases as r decreases.  So the planet is moving fastest when it's closest to the sun, also known as the <em>perihelion</em>.

a rectangular tank measures 12.5 metres long 10.0 wide and 2.0 metre high calculate the mass of the water in the tank when it is
Tom [10]

Answer:

250000kg

Explanation:

Mass =density * volume

Density=1000kg/m³

Volume=l*w*h

12.5*10.0*2.0=250m³

Mass=1000 *250

=250000kg

If an exit sign is hanging from the ceiling by three chains each of which has a tension of 15N what is the weight of the sign
kvasek [131]
The weight is 45 N, because the three chains hold the sign, and each contributes 15 N.

Notice that the mass would be the weight/acceleration of gravity, m = 45/9.8 kg. But they ask the weight (force, so Newtons)

Any two application of gravity
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Well the definition of an application is the act of putting to a special use or purpose so lam assuming that you want specific uses that scientists make of gravity in their work.

Well our first application has helped us to send satellites around the solar system with what Nasa calls gravity assist. Using a particular planets gravity to slingshot a satellite to another destination. Look it up.

The next application much simpler but here on Earth. There are many hydro-electric power stations in use all over the world. Water is stored at a high level and released falling 100s of metres to a turbine where it generates electricity.

Hope that helps.

Imagine that heike onnes cooled mercury down to absolute zero and there was still resistance. would he have discovered supercond
likoan [24]

No, because superconductivity cannot occur if there is resistance

In addition to explaining electrical resistance, equilibrium distance theory also foretells the existence of superconductivity. According to its postulates, electrical resistivity decreases with distance from the equilibrium. There is only superconductivity at zero distance, with no resistance

<h3>What is Superconductivity ?</h3>

The ability of some materials to transmit electric current with virtually little resistance is known as superconductivity.

  • This ability has intriguing and maybe beneficial ramifications. Low temperatures are necessary for a material to exhibit superconductor behaviour. H. K. made the initial discovery of superconductivity in 1911.
  • Aluminum, magnesium diboride, niobium, copper oxide, yttrium barium, and iron pnictides are a few well-known examples of superconductors.
