If our solar system's Sun was half the mass as it is now, what would happen to the orbit of the Earth

Physics
1 answer:
avanturin [10]3 years ago

Essentially, an increase in mass means an increase in gravity, while a decrease in mass means a decrease in gravity. So if the Sun spontaneously lost half its mass (gasp, shudder, the horror!) then its gravitational pull on Earth would lessen as well, ultimately changing the very nature of our orbit around the Sun.
Thank You!

How could you group pennies,nickels, and dimes together
julsineya [31]

There isn't a direct answer to this, but I can show you!

This is how you group Pennies, Nickels, and Dimes.

1 Penny= 1 cent.

1 Nickel= 5 cents.

1 Dime= 10 cents.

Imagine if there was 5 pennies, 3 dimes, and 8 Nickels.

That might seem like a lot of numbers, but it's pretty simple!

You know how pennies are worth 1 cent? If we had 5 pennies, that would be 5 cents.

1+1+1+1+1=5 cents.

Then, we have 3 dimes. Dimes are each 10 cents.

So, 10x3 (If you know multiplication,  if not, you will learn it later) :)

10+10+10=  30 cents.

Now, nickels. We have 8 nickels! Remember, each nickel is 5 cents.

5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5=

40 Nickels.

Now add all of the coins up.

5 cents + 30 cents + 40 cents = 75 cents!

I hope this helped! If you need more help, you can ask me. :)

What is the velocity in meters per second of a runner who runs exactly 110 m toward the beach in 72 seconds.
KATRIN_1 [288]

1.53 m/s toward the beach

Explanation:

The magnitude of the velocity of the runner is given by:

v=\frac{d}{t}

where

d is the displacement of the runner

t is the time taken

In this case, d=110 m and t=72 s, so the velocity of the runner is

v=\frac{110 m}{72 s}=1.53 m/s

Velocity is a vector, so it consists of both magnitude and direction: we already calculate the magnitude, while the direction is given by the problem, toward the beach.
