The law that accounts for that exact statement is the law that says that
most people don't understand these things very well.

A better statement is:
<span>"The gravitational forces between the Sun and each planet cause each planet
to move in an elliptical path."<span>

The laws that account for that behavior are:

-- Newton's second law of motion: (Force) = (mass) x (acceleration)

-- Newton's law of universal gravity</span></span>

Explanation :

The gravity of the Sun causes the planets to move in a circular path. This is because of Newton's first law of motion.

According to Newton's first law, the body will remain at rest or in uniform motion untill external unbalanced force acts.

There are two forces acting on planets i.e. gravitational force and inertia of their orbits. <em>So, form Newton's first law the planets keeps on moving in a circular path.</em>

When objects exchange charge, why do we say it's the negative charge that moves and not the positive?
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

It is said that the negative charge moves because the electrons in the atoms of any object are taken or given to the atoms of another object.

Explanation:

The atom is made up of protons, electrons and neutrons. The number of protons is exactly the same to the number of electrons for a certain element. For example, hydrogen: it has a proton, and therefore, an electron.

The electron has a negative charge. The proton has a positive charge. And the neutron has no charge, so it is neutral. While the atom has the same number of protons and electrons, it will not be electrically charged.

An example of how a charge exchange occurs between two objects is through the case of rubbing. This makes the atoms of the two objects close enough that there is an electron transfer, causing any of the objects to gain or lose electrons as a consequence of each other interaction. In the case of transferring electrons, the atom will have a greater number of protons, so it will be positively charged. When the atom receive electrons, it will have a greater number of electrons, so it will be negatively charged.

Therefore, since it is the electrons that move from one atom to another, then it is the negative charge that moves (<em>characterized by the electrons</em>) and not the positive charge (<em>characterized by the protons</em>).

The temperature of the cooling water as it leaves the hot engine of an automobile is 240 °F. After it passes through the radiato
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:571.09 kJ

Explanation:

Given

Temperature of cooling water from engine exit=240^{\circ} F\approx 115.55^{\circ}C

After Passing through the radiator its temperature decreases to 175^{\circ}F\approx 79.44^{\circ}F

specific heat of water=4.184 J/g^{\circ}C

Volume of water = 1 gallon\approx 3.78 L

density of water \rho =1 gm/mL

Thus mass of water=\rho \times V=3.78\times 1=3.78 kg

Heat transferred to the surrounding is equal to heat absorbed by cooling water

Q=m\cdot c\cdot \Delta T

Q=3.78\times 4.184\times 1000\times (115.55-79.44)

Q=3.78\times 4.184\times 1000\times (36.11)

Q=571.09 kJ
