According to Kepler's harmonic law, Neptune would have a _________ orbit around the Sun than Mercury.

Physics

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.

Vector A = 50 m,<br> 20°. Vector -3A would be equal to
Kruka [31]

Answer:

Many familiar physical quantities can be specified completely by giving a single number and the appropriate unit. For example, “a class period lasts 50 min” or “the gas tank in my car holds 65 L” or “the distance between two posts is 100 m.” A physical quantity that can be specified completely in this manner is called a scalar quantity. Scalar is a synonym of “number.” Time, mass, distance, length, volume, temperature, and energy are examples of scalar quantities.

A satellite of mass 1000kg is in a circular orbit around a planet. The centripetal acceleration of the satellite in its orbit is
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer: 5000N

Explanation:

The basic principle of a circular orbit is that Fg = m × ac, so as we have the mass and the centripetal acceleration (also called normal acceleration) we just have to operate. Fg = 1000kg × 5m/s² = 5000N

How much power does a 2000 kg car need to accelerate from 20 m/s to 35 m/s in 7 seconds?
Alexus [3.1K]

firstly you get your acceleration with the formula, a=v-u/t. Then you use the formula for kinetic energy 1/2mv^2

then you can finally get the answer for power by dividing your previous answer by the time
