The correct answer is "A". 'Gravity'. The Sun's gravity pulls on the planets to keep them in motion. Just like the Earth does to the moon.


I hope this helped you!

Brainliest answer is always appreciated!

The pitchers mound in baseball is 85 meters from home plate . If it takes 4.1 seconds for a pitch to reach the plate , how fast
adoni [48]

Answer: 20.73m/s

Explanation:

The question simply wants us to calculate the speed of the pitch. The speed will be calculated as:

= Distance/Time

where,

Distance = 85 meters

Time = 4.1 seconds

Speed = Distance/Time

Speed = 85/4.1

Speed = 20.73m/s

Therefore, the speed of the pitch is 20.73m/s.

storchak [24]

Answer:

4.2 km

Explanation:

A triangle is a polygon with three sides and three angles. There are different types of triangles such as isosceles triangle, scalene triangle, equilateral triangle and right angled triangle.

Sine rule states that for a triangle with angles A,B and C and corresponding opposite sides a, b, and c, the following formula holds:

\frac{a}{sin(A)}=\frac{b}{sin(B)}=\frac{c}{sin(C)}

Let the starting point be A, hence the side opposite to the  angle = a = distance travelled in north east direction.

Let the point of 60° of northeast be B = 90° + (90° - 60°) = 120°, hence the side opposite to the  angle = b = resultant displacement = 8 km.

Let C be the endpoint, hence the side opposite to the  angle = c = distance travelled north = 5 km

Using sine rule:

\frac{b}{sin(B)}=\frac{c}{sin(C)}  \\\\\frac{8}{sin(120)}=\frac{5}{sin(C)}  \\\\sin(C)=\frac{5*sin(120)}{8} =0.5412\\\\C=sin^{-1}(0.5412)=32.8^o\\\\

∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180° (sum of angle in a triangle)

∠A + 120 + 32.8 = 180

∠A = 27.2°

\frac{b}{sin(B)}=\frac{a}{sin(A)}  \\\\\frac{8}{sin(120)}=\frac{a}{sin(27.2)}  \\\\a=\frac{8*sin(27.2)}{sin(120)} \\\\a=4.2\ km

Therefore she travelled 4.2 km in the north east direction

A projectile is fired straight upward at 173 m/s. how fast is it moving at the instant it reaches the top of its trajectory?
Fittoniya [83]
The top of the trajectory is the point where it changes from rising to falling. At that exact instant, its vertical speed is zero.

How do scientists know our universe is older than 6500 years?
dmitriy555 [2]
<span>This is because astronomers have discovered that the Crab Nebula is 6500 light years from earth. This means it takes 6500 earth years for light to get from the Crab Nebula to earth. Therefore, if we are able to observe the Crab Nebula and beyond it then it means that earth has been in existence for 6500 years and over.  </span>
