Which of the following laws explains why planets continue orbiting due to an unbalanced force?

GalinKa [24]3 years ago

Among these, the greatest impact would have to be Newton's first law, the law of gravity. All of the planets stay in their own orbits, even if their orbits are not exactly perfect. This is done because of the sun's gravitational force, which keeps all of the planets in the solar system revolving around it.

A sample of helium (He) occupies 8.0 liters at 1 atm and 20.0◦C. What pressure is necessary to change the volume to 1.0 liters a
nevsk [136]

Apply the combined gas law

PV/T = const.

P = pressure, V = volume, T = temperature, PV/T must stay constant.

Initial PVT values:

P = 1atm, V = 8.0L, T = 20.0°C = 293.15K

Final PVT values:

P = ?, V = 1.0L, T = 10.0°C = 283.15K

Set the PV/T expression for the initial and final PVT values equal to each other and solve for the final P:

1(8.0)/293.15 = P(1.0)/283.15

P = 7.7atm

Two identical blocks are heated to different temperatures. The blocks are placed so that they touch, and heat begins to flow bet
baherus [9]

The pair of blocks is insulated, so no energy escapes. The pair of temperatures possible is  95 +95 temperature blocks.

<h3>What is thermal equilibrium?</h3>

When two objects are in direct contact and transfer heat through conduction. When the both object attain same temperature after sometime, they are called in thermal equilibrium.

Two identical blocks are heated to different temperatures. The blocks are placed so that they touch, and heat begins to flow between blocks. The heat will continue to until and unless they have same temperatures. After they being isolated, the temperature of both will be same and no heat is transferred outside.

Thus, the pair of temperatures possible is  95 +95 temperature blocks.

A tennis player swings her 1000 g racket with a speed of 10 m/s. She hits a 60 g tennis ball that was approaching her at a speed
Mashutka [201]

(a)

consider the motion of the tennis ball. lets assume the velocity of the tennis ball going towards the racket as positive and velocity of tennis ball going away from the racket as negative.

m = mass of the tennis ball = 60 g = 0.060 kg

v₀ = initial velocity of the tennis ball before being hit by racket = 20 m/s

v = final velocity of the tennis ball after being hit by racket = - 39 m/s

ΔP = change in momentum of the ball

change in momentum of the ball is given as

ΔP = m (v - v₀)

inserting the above values

ΔP = (0.060) (- 39 - 20)

ΔP = - 3.54 kgm/s

hence , magnitude of change in momentum : 3.54 kgm/s

A fly travels along the x-axis. His starting point is x = 16 m and his ending point 15x = - 25 m. His flight lasts 4.0 seconds H
gogolik [260]

Explanation:

Starting position at x  = 16m

Ending position at x  = -25m

Time of flight  = 4s

Unknown:

Distance flown  = ?

Displacement  = ?

Speed  = ?

Velocity  = ?

Solution:

To find the distance flown, we should understand that the body is moving on the x - plane;  

  So distance  = 16 + 25  = 41m

Displacement is 41m to the left or -x axis

Speed is the distance divided by the time taken;

      Speed  = \frac{distance}{time}   = \frac{41}{4}   = 10.25m/s

Velocity is 10.25m/s along -x axis

A rocket is fired at 100 m/s at an angle of 37, what was its speed at the top of its path?
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

0m/s

Explanation:

Since its fired at an angle, at the top there will be a split second where the velocity will be 0, as it has a parabolic shape, so the speed at the top of its path is 0
