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.

A string is wrapped around a pulley with a radius of 2.0 cm. The pulley is initially at rest. A constant force of 50 N is applie
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

0.20kg-m^2

Explanation:

Let the linear velocity of the rope(=of pulley) is v m/s

Using kinematic equation

=> v = u + at

=>v = 0 + 4.9a

=>v = 4.9a ------------ eq1

By v^2 = u^2 + 2as

=>v^2 = 0 + 2 x v/4.9 x 1.2

=>4.9v^2 - 2.4v = 0

=>v(4.9v - 2.4) = 0

=>v = 2.4/4.9 = 0.49 m/s

Thus by v = r x omega

=>omega = v/r = 0.49/0.02 = 24.49 rad/sec

BY W = F x s = 50 x 1.2 = 60 J

=>KE(rotational) = W = 1/2 x I x omega^2

=>60 = 1/2 x I x (24.49)^2

=>I = 0.20 kg-m^2

Which of the following statements best describes the relationship between force and work?
viktelen [127]

a).,  b).,  and  c).  are completely false. 
There isn't a grain of truth among them.

In Physics, the technical definition of 'Work' is (force) times (distance).

The suspended ash made for some some spectacular sunsets! Sulfuric acid was spread worldwide, increasing acidity of rain. Ash deflected energy from the sun, causing a slight drop on global temps for a few years.

(Serway 9th ed., 6-27) The mass of a sports car is 1200 kg. The shape of the body is such that the aerodynamic drag coefficient
kkurt [141]

Answer:

a = - 0.248 m/s²

Explanation:

Frictional drag force

F = ½ *(ρ* v² * A * α)

ρ = density of air  , ρ = 1.295 kg/m^3

α = drag coef , α = 0.250

v = 100 km/h x 1000m / 3600s

v =  27.77 m/s

A = 2.20m^2

So replacing numeric in the initial equation

F = ½ (1.295kg/m^3)(27.77m/s)²(2.30m^2)(0.26)

F = 298.6 N

Now knowing the force can find the acceleration

a = - F / m

a = - 298.6 N / 1200 kg

a = - 0.248 m/s²
