Answer:
People firstly believe that the planets move in a circular orbit until Newton came up with his hypothesis by inventing calculus so that we could understood and calculated planetary orbits and their accuracy.
Explanation:
- Everyone assumed the planets were perfect circles until Newton came up with an idea. Slowly people would make maps of the orbits that added circles on circles, and they could never really explain about the movement of the planet. They simply say that planets move on circles but they lacked the math to explain or prove it. Then Newton came up with an idea of inventing calculus so that we could understood and calculated planetary orbits and their accuracy.
-
- Firstly people used their observations and say that the orbits looked like circles, then they developed their models and did the math, and proposed their hypothesizes which were wrong, until Newton came along and tried to match a model that used elliptical orbits and invented the math that allowed him to make predictions with it. His model worked for most planets.
-
- However he could not explain about the planet Mercury for instance since it was a very strange orbit. Then after the Einstein's theory of General Relativity he could also explain very deeply about it.
-
- Scientists and Astronomers made hypothesizes that there was another planet orbiting too close to the sun to see with telescopes, called Vulcan, that explained mercury's orbit before Einstein's theory. Then long after we had telescopes which was good enough to see if there was a planet orbiting closer to the sun than mercury.
If something is traveling at 20 m/s constant speed AND its direction isn't changing, then its velocity is constant. Another way to say that is: Its acceleration is zero. Zero acceleration means zero NET force acting on the object, or a group of BALANCED forces acting on it, also called EQUILIBRIUM. The required answer is: YES.
If a real projectile is launched, the force of gravity acts on it vertically downward. There's no upward force acting on it to balance gravity. Therefore, the forces on the projectile are NOT balanced, there IS a net vertical force on it, and it's NOT in equilibrium. Too bad.
Answer:
-1m/s
Explanation:
We can calculate the speed of block A after collision
According to collision theory:
MaVa+MbVb = MaVa+MbVb (after collision)
Substitute the given values
5(3)+10(0) = 5Va+10(2)
15+0 = 5Va + 20
5Va = 15-20
5Va = -5
Va = -5/5
Va = -1m/s
Hence the velocity of ball A after collision is -1m/s
Note that the velocity of block B is zero before collision since it is stationary
Answer:
13.5 m
Explanation:
M = Mass of cart = 500 kg
m = Ann's mass = 50 kg
= Velocity of Ann relative to cart = 5 m/s
= Velocity of Cart relative to Ann
As the linear momentum of the system is conserved

Time taken to reach the right end by Ann

Distance the cart will move in the 3 seconds

The negative sign indicates opposite direction
Movement of Ann will be the sum of the distances

The net movement of Ann is 13.5 m
When is at the end of the runway the velocity of the plane is given by the equation

where s=1800 m is the runway length. Thus
At half runway the velocity of the plane is

Therefore at midpoint of runway the percentage of takeoff velocity is
