Let the vector position of the object in the (x-y) plane be 
\vec{r} = x \hat{i} + y \hat{j}

The applied force is
\vec{f} = -12.5 \hat{i}


By definition, the applied torque is
\vec{T} = \vec{r} \times \vec{f} = (x\hat{i} + y\hat{j}) \times (-12.5y \hat{i}) = 12.5\hat{k}

Answer: 12.5y \, \hat{k}

These are the Kepler's laws of planetary motion.

This law relates a planet's orbital period and its average distance to the Sun. - Third law of Kepler.

The orbits of planets are ellipses with the Sun at one focus. - First law of Kepler.

The speed of a planet varies, such that a planet sweeps out an equal area in equal time frames. - Second law of Kepler.

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

a. stay the same for very long

Explanation:

It is rare for any motion to stay the same for a very long time. The force applied on a body causes changes in the magnitude of motion.

  • For motion to remain constant, there must not be a net force acting on the body
  • All the forces on the body must be balanced.
  • This is very hard to come by.
  • Motion changes very frequently.
