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>.

How to find instantaneous velocity physics?
evablogger [386]
You should have the velocity as a function of time either given explicitly or implicitly (a graph)

v = ds/dt  (differentiating the position vector)

integrating the acceleration.

you can use impulse or work and energy principle and also newton law of motion to find acceleration then velocity

Two loudspeakers are placed next to each other and driven by the same source at 500 Hz. A listener is positioned in front of the
stellarik [79]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to wavelength as the rate of change of the speed of the wave over the frequency. Mathematically this is

\lambda = \frac{v}{f}

Here,

v = Wave velocity

f = Frequency,

Replacing with our values we have that,

\lambda = \frac{340}{500}

\lambda = 0.68m

The distance to move one speaker is half this

\lambda/2 = 0.34m

Therefore the minimum distance will be 0.34m

Is it using energy when someone stands against a locker that doesn’t move
soldi70 [24.7K]

When someone stands against a locker and is does not moving at all, then there will be no displacement and since displacement = 0

Work done also becomes equal to zero.

Work done is usually defined as change in energy. Since the work done is zero there has been no energy used.
