Answer: A planet orbit is a gravitationally curved path that a celestial body travels around a point in space.

Explanation:

We define planet orbit as the path that a planet (or any other celestial object) has around two focal points (the orbit is an ellipse, the ellipses have two focal points). For example, the moon's orbit is around the Earth is almost circular, while Earth orbit is less circular. This movement is caused by the strong gravitational attraction of the sun, that keeps all the planets fixed in the orbits, this is why this is called a "gravitationally curved path".

the correct option is planet orbit.

dusya [7]

from the question you can see that some detail is missing, using search engines i was able to get a similar question on "https://www.slader.com/discussion/question/a-student-throws-a-water-balloon-vertically-downward-from-the-top-of-a-building-the-balloon-leaves-t/"

here is the question : A student throws a water balloon vertically downward from the top of a building. The balloon leaves the thrower's hand with a speed of 60.0m/s. Air resistance may be ignored,so the water balloon is in free fall after it leaves the throwers hand. a) What is its speed after falling for 2.00s? b) How far does it fall in 2.00s? c) What is the magnitude of its velocity after falling 10.0m?

Answer:

(A) 26 m/s

(B) 32.4 m

(C) v = 15.4 m/s

Explanation:

initial speed (u) = 6.4 m/s

acceleration due to gravity (a) = 9.9 m/s^[2}

time (t) = 2 s

(A)   What is its speed after falling for 2.00s?

  from the equation of motion v = u + at we can get the speed

v = 6.4 + (9.8 x 2) = 26 m/s

(B) How far does it fall in 2.00s?

  from the equation of motion s=ut+0.5at^{2} we can get the distance covered

s = (6.4 x 2) + (0.5 x 9.8 x 2 x 2)

s = 12.8 + 19.6 = 32.4 m

c) What is the magnitude of its velocity after falling 10.0m?

from the equation of motion below we can get the velocity

v^{2} = u^{2} + 2as\\v^{2} = 6.4^{2} + (2x9.8x10)\\V^{2} = 236.96\\v = \sqrt{236.96}

v = 15.4 m/s

Question 11 (1 point)
Ainat [17]

Answer:

gravitational potential energy.

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy (GPE) can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position above the earth surface.

Mathematically, gravitational potential energy is given by the formula;

G.P.E = mgh

Where,

G.P.E represents gravitational potential energy measured in Joules.

m represents the mass of an object.

g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.

h represents the height measured in meters.

This ultimately implies that, anytime there is height, the object must have gravitational potential energy.

Hence, an object possesses gravitational potential energy due to its height (position) and the earth's gravitational force.
