The earth takes 1 year to revolve around the sun at 1 A.U. distance (an astronomical unit = 93,000,000 miles). If a planet were

4 A.U. from the sun, how many years would it take to make 1 orbit?

Kepler's third law states that the square of the orbital period is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its orbit. In equation form, P^2 / a^3 = constant. For the earth, (1 y)^2 / (1 AU)^3 = 1, so the constant is 1. For a planet 4 AU from the sun:
P^2 / (4 AU)^3 = 1P^2 = 64P = 8 years

The gravitational force between two objects is f. If masses of both objects are halved without changing distance between them, t
Marrrta [24]

The gravitation force is quartered when two objects' masses are halved without changing their distance.

Gravitational law states that the force of attraction and repulsion between two objects is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of their distance apart.

F=(KM1 M2)/r^2

K= Gravitation force constant

M1M2 = masses of the object

r = distance between objects

When M1 and M2 are halved, it becomes M1/2 and M2/2

F=(K M1/2 x M2/2)/r^2

F=(K (M1 x M2)/4)/r^2

F=(KM1 x M2)/(4r^2 )

Recall

F=(KM1 x M2)/r^2

Therefore

F=F/4

Why did boy (the observer) hear the pitch of the sound change? What does this tell us about the frequency of the sound? Support
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

<u>because of the doppler effect</u>

Explanation:

<em>Remember</em>, the doppler effect refers to the changes in sound (frequency of sound) observed by a person who is in a position relative to the wave source.

In this example, we notice as the train comes closer to the boy, the sound becomes louder also increasing the pitch slightly, the doppler effect sets in when the train passes the boy because the boy notices a decrease in the pitch of the moving train.

We learn from the change in the observed sound of the train that the frequency of the sound is determined by the distance of the observer from the wave source.

In other words, the closer the source of the sound to the observer; the faster it travels to the observer, however, the farther it is; the lesser it is; the greater the sound heard.
