One of Kepler's laws is that the orbits of planets are elliptical. It's not a suggestion. BTW, circles are ellipses too, but so special that their likelihood is close to zero.

Answer:

Kepler's first law suggests that the orbit of planets is not circular but elliptical

Explanation:

The three Kepler's laws explain the motion of the planets orbiting the Sun:

- The first law tells that the orbits of the planets around the Sun are ellipses, with the Sun located at one of the two focii

- The second law tells that a line connecting the Sun with the planet sweeps out equal areas in equal amounts of time

- The third law tells that the square of the orbital periods of the planets is proportional to the cube of their average distance from the Sun

As we can read, the first law tells us that the orbit of the planets is not circular, but elliptical.

Which of the following are inertial reference frames? A. A car driving at steady speed on a straight and level road. B. A car dr
Aloiza [94]

Answers:

A. A car driving at steady speed on a straight and level road.

B. A car driving at steady speed up a 10∘ incline.

Explanation:

An object is said to be in an inertial reference frame if the net force acting on the object is zero. According to Newton's second law, this also means that the acceleration of the object is also zero:

F=ma

Since F=0, a=0 as well.

Let's now analyze each case.

A. A car driving at steady speed on a straight and level road. --> YES: this is an inertial reference frame, because the car is keeping a constant speed and a constant direction, so its velocity is not changing, and its acceleration is zero.

B. A car driving at steady speed up a 10∘ incline. --> YES: this is an inertial reference frame, because the car is keeping a constant speed and a constant direction, so its velocity is not changing, and its acceleration is zero.

C. A car speeding up after leaving a stop sign. --> NO: this is not an intertial reference frame, because the car is speeding up, so it is accelerating.

D. A car driving at steady speed around a curve. --> NO: this is not an inertial reference frame, because the car is changing direction, therefore its velocity is changing and so the car is accelerating.

So the only two choices which are correct are A and B.
