<u>Mechanics</u> is the branch of physics which deals with the study of motion of material objects.
<u><em>Divisions</em></u>
There are three major division of mechanics
Statics
Kinematics
Dynamics.
Answer: 17.83 AU
Explanation:
According to Kepler’s Third Law of Planetary motion <em>“The square of the orbital period of a planet is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis (size) of its orbit”. </em>
(1)
Talking in general, this law states a relation between the <u>orbital period</u>
of a body (moon, planet, satellite, comet) orbiting a greater body in space with the <u>size</u>
of its orbit.
However, if
is measured in <u>years</u>, and
is measured in <u>astronomical units</u> (equivalent to the distance between the Sun and the Earth:
), equation (1) becomes:
(2)
This means that now both sides of the equation are equal.
Knowing
and isolating
from (2):
(3)
(4)
Finally:
(5)
This state of motionlessness occurs because all of the kinetic energy in the car is absorbed by the spring in the form of elastic potential energy. The mathematical representation is:
1/2 mv² = 1/2 kx²
25m = kx², where m is the mass of the cart, k is the spring constant and x is the spring's extension.
Answer:
The cooling time will not be reduced.
Explanation:
The time to cook is virtually the same in both types, vigorously and gently boiling water.
The reason cooking of spaghetti calls for vigorously boiling water is to keep the pasta agitated so that they do not stick to one another.
The temperature of boiling water is the same for both vigorously boiling water and gently boiling water, therefore there will be little time difference in when the potatoes will cook when it is done with vigorously boiling water than when it is cooked with gently boiling water.
However cooking potatoes in vigorously boiling water may cause the water to dry up on time and the potatoes get burnt.
