Slower

Explanation:

Kepler's harmonic law (also called Kepler's third law) states that:

"The cube of the radius of the orbit of a planet around the sun is proportional to the square of its period of revolution"

In formula, this can be written as

\frac{r^3}{T^2}=const.

where

r is the radius of the orbit

T is the orbital period

const. is a constant number, which is the same for all the planets orbiting the sun

By looking at the equation, we can see that the further a planet from the sun, the larger its orbital period: this means that the further planet will have a slower orbit. In this problem, we have to compare Neptune and Mercury: since Neptune is further from the sun than Mercury, also its orbital period will be larger, and therefore Neptune would have a slower orbit around the Sun than Mercury.

The momentum of a falling rock is found to be 200 kg m/s. What is the mass of the rock if it falls with a velocity of 5.0 m/s
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 40 \ kilograms}}

Explanation:

Momentum is the product of velocity and mass. The formula is:

p=m*v

We know the rock is falling. Its momentum is 200 kilograms meters per second and its velocity is 5 meters per second. Substitute the values into the formula.

200 \ kg \ m/s = m * 5.0 \ m/s

We are solving for m, the mass. We must isolate the variable. It is being multiplied by 5 meters per second. The inverse of multiplication is division, so we divided both sides by 5.0 m/s.

\frac{200 \ kg \ m/s}{5.0 \ m/s}=\frac{ m* 5.0 \ m/s }{5.0 \ m/s}

\frac{200 \ kg \ m/s}{5.0 \ m/s}=m

The units of meters per second (m/s) cancel.

\frac{200 \ kg}{5.0 } =m

40 \ kg = m

The falling rock has a mass of <u>40 kilograms.</u>

lana [24]

Answer:

0.500 T

Explanation:

Since the change in time and the number of coils are both 1, I set the problem up to be 1.3=(1.5(x)-13(x)). I then plugged in numbers for x until I got the answer to be 1.3 V.
