Answer:
(a) - 42700 m/s
(b) - 6.8 x 10^-4 m/s^2
Explanation:
initial velocity of star, u = 20.7 km/s
Final velocity of star, v = - 22 km/s
time, t = 1.99 years
Convert velocities into m/s and time into second
So, u = 20700 m / s
v = - 22000 m/s
t = 1.99 x 365.25 x 24 x 3600 = 62799624 second
(a) Change in planet's velocity = final velocity - initial velocity
= - 22000 - 20700 = - 42700 m/s
(b) Accelerate is defined as the rate of change of velocity.
Acceleration = change in velocity / time
= ( - 42700 ) / (62799624) = - 6.8 x 10^-4 m/s^2
Answer:

Explanation:
The momentum change is defined as:

Taking the downward motion as negative and the upward motion as positive, we have:

Replacing (2) and (3) in (1):

Answer:
Jupiter. Although it is a gas planet, it has a ton of mass. Mass can determine the weight of an object. We can thereby assume that Jupiter weighs way more than most planets.
We use the equation y = kx
y = 18, x = 2.5
18 = k2.5
k = 7.2
x = 6.4
y = 7.2*6.4
y = 46.08
