Why do a planets speed change in orbit

1 answer:

3 0

According to Kepler's second law of orbital motion, a plane's orbital speed changes , depending on how far it is from the sun. The closer a planet is to the sun, the stronger the sun's gravitational pull on it, and the faster the planet moves. The farther away from the sun, the weaker the sun's gravitational pull and the slower it moves in its orbit.

The orbit of a planet around the sun is not a perfect circle, but an ellipse - a flattened circle.

which are correct formulas for ionic compounds? for those that are not correct, give the correct formula and justify your answer

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

Ionic compounds have a metal and nonmetal.

Ionic compounds are made up of ions.

Explanation:

You did not provide any formulas for me to correct, but:

ionic compounds tend to have metals and nonmetals. (EX: NaCl)You can look at the periodic table to see which elements are metals and which are not.
ionic compounds are made up of ions. Ions are elements that have a charge (Like $Cu^{2+}$ or $O^{-}$ ). To have a correct ionic compound, make sure that the ions inside of it "cancel" each other out.

EX: Na has a +1 charge. Cl has a -1 charge. When they are paired up, they successfully cancel each other out (become neutral) and become the ionic compound NaCl.

The chart below shows you the charge of each element. Make sure the charge of the elements in an ionic compound "cancel" each other out.

The very last chart shows the metals and nonmetals
