Explanation:

The orbit of the planet is considered to be stable and does not change over time. This means that the force of gravity and inertia are perfectly balanced. Leading to forward motion of Planet and moons under force of gravity of some other large body(Most probably stars).This is in turns leads to formation of orbit.

Answer:

The student is correct. Since the planet move around the stars orbit in a stable manner, the only force that can put it in space and make it move round the star will be the force of gravity from the star.

Question 1 of 25
finlep [7]

Answer:

<em>2.753*10^-11N</em>

Explanation:

According to Newton's law of gravitation, the force between the masses is expressed as;

F = GMm/d²

M and m are the distances

d is the distance between the masses

Given

M = 3.71 x 10 kg

m = 1.88 x 10^4 kg

d = 1300m

G = 6.67 x 10-11 Nm²/kg

Substitute into the formula

F = 6.67 x 10-11* (3.71 x 10)*(1.88 x 10^4)/1300²

F = 46.52*10^(-6)/1.69 * 10^6

F = 27.53 * 10^{-6-6}

F = 27.53*10^{-12}

F = 2.753*10^-11

<em>Hence the gravitational force between the asteroid is 2.753*10^-11N</em>

Can you explain hooks law in simple words?
dedylja [7]

Answer:

The extension of a material or a spring is its increase in length when pulled. Hooke’s Law says that the extension of an elastic object is directly proportional to the force applied to it. In other words:

Suppose the glass paperweight has index of refraction n=1.38. a) find the value of θ for which the reflection on the vertical su
zimovet [89]

Answer:

a)θ=71.89°

b)NO

Explanation:

Given that

For glass n= 1.38

We know that for air n'=1

The angle  for total internal reflection θc given as

sin θc=n'/n

By putting the values

sin θc=n'/n

sin θc=1/1.38

θc=46.43°

n'sinθ = n sinθref

sinθref = cosθc

n'sinθ =  n cosθc

1 x sinθ =1.38 x cos 46.43°

θ=71.89°

b)

NO

A car accelerates from rest to 90m/s in 3 seconds. What is the acceleration and how far did it travel?
Inessa [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

1.)acceleration= final velocity-initial velocity/time

90m/s-0m/s /3seconds

=30m/s^2

2.) distance= speed*time

90m/s*3seconds

=270m
