I think it might be a gravitational pull
Well first of all, when it comes to orbits of the planets around
the sun, there's no such thing as "orbital paths", in the sense
of definite ("quantized") distances that the planets can occupy
but not in between. That's the case with the electrons in an atom,
but a planet's orbit can be any old distance from the sun at all.
If Mercury, or any planet, were somehow moved to an orbit closer
to the sun, then ...
-- its speed in orbit would be greater,
-- the distance around its orbit would be shorter,
-- its orbital period ("year") would be shorter,
-- the temperature everywhere on its surface would be higher,
-- if it has an atmosphere now, then its atmosphere would become
less dense, and might soon disappear entirely,
-- the intensity of x-rays, charged particles, and other forms of
solar radiation arriving at its surface would be greater.
Answer:
The mass of the boulder remains constant, while its weight decreases with respect to the value of gravitational force on the moon.
Explanation:
The mass of the boulder = 15 kg
On the earth, its mass remains 15 kg. But its weight is;
weight = m x g
= 15 x 9.8
= 147 N
The boulder's weight on the earth is 147 N.
When transferred to the moon, the mass remains constant i.e 15 kg. But its weight decreases due to a change in the value of acceleration due to gravity on the moon. Thus, the boulder becomes lighter in weight.
Answer:They come in different kinds, called elements, but each atom shares certain characteristics in common. All atoms have a dense central core called the atomic nucleus. Forming the nucleus are two kinds of particles: protons, which have a positive electrical charge, and neutrons, which have no charge
Explanation:
The average weight of an athlete should be around 60kg so from the information that the athlete can run 100m in 10s, we can calculate that their average speed is 10m/s. Using the kinetic energy formula, Ek = 1/2mv^2 we can calculate the kinetic energy using 60kg as the mass.
(1/2)(60)(10^2) = Ek
Ek= 3000J
