-- There's a force of 240N pushing her backwards.

-- She's maintaining a steady speed (of 2.5 m/s) .

-- In order to maintain a steady speed (no acceleration),
the forces on her must be balanced.  So she's maintaining
a steady force of 240N forward.

-- Every time she moves 1 m forward, she does work of
(force) x (distance) = 240 joules.

-- She moves 2.5 meters forward every second.
So she's doing (240 x 2.5) = 600 joules of work every second.

-- 600 joules per second = 600 watts .

As a planet's semimajor axis gets smaller, its speed will _______ and its period will _________ .
Rufina [12.5K]
Well first of all, a planet doesn't have a semimajor axis, although it's orbit does.

In an orbit with a smaller semimajor axis, the planet moves faster, and its orbital period is shorter.

That's why the International Space Station circles the Earth in less time than the Moon does.

A man is running on the straight road with the uniform velocity of 3 metre per second calculate the acceleration for produced hi
sp2606 [1]

Theoritically

the body moving with uniform velocity has acceleration zero.

Mathmatically,

u=3m/s

v=3m/s (since body is moving with uniform velocity)

a= v-u/t

3-3/t

0/t

0m/s.s
