Answer: electric field

Explanation: when a charge is placed in space, it alters the space around it by creating an electric field.

This electric field has the ability to exert a force (f) on any test charge(q) placed within this vicinity.

This is the reason why a charge can either attract or repel another charge.

What is the role of the nervous system?

zimovet [89]

The nervous system is responsible for sending, receiving, and interpreting information from all parts of the body. The nervous system monitors and coordinates internal organ function and responds to changes in the external environment. (The role) The central nervous system consists of the brain and the spinal cord. It is part of the overall nervous system that also includes a complex network of neurons, known as the peripheral nervous system. (Central nervous system)

A 1000-kg car is traveling east at 20\:m.s^{-1}20 m . s − 1 and a 1200-kg car is traveling west at 22\:m.s^{-1}\:22 m . s − 1. W

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

490,400 J

Explanation:

Mass of first car, m = 1000 kg

Mass of second car, M = 1200 kg

velocity of first car, u = 20 m/s east

velocity of second car, U = 22 m/s west

The formula for the kinetic energy is

$k = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}$

where, m is the body and v be the velocity of the body.

Total kinetic energy is given by

$k = \frac{1}{2}mu^{2}+\frac{1}{2}MU^{2}$

$k = \frac{1}{2}\times1000\times20^{2}+\frac{1}{2}\times1200\times22^{2}$

$k = 200000 + 290400$

k = 490,400 J

Thus, the total kinetic energy of the system is 490,400 J.

Use the ratio version of Kepler’s third law and the orbital information of Mars to determine Earth’s distance from the Sun. Mars

zhuklara [117]

Kepler's third law is used to determine the relationship between the orbital period of a planet and the radius of the planet.

The distance of the earth from the sun is $1.50 \times 10^{11}\;\rm m$ .

<h3>What is Kepler's third law?</h3>

Kepler's Third Law states that the square of the orbital period of a planet is directly proportional to the cube of the radius of their orbits. It means that the period for a planet to orbit the Sun increases rapidly with the radius of its orbit.

$T^2 \propto R^3$

Given that Mars’s orbital period T is 687 days, and Mars’s distance from the Sun R is 2.279 × 10^11 m.

By using Kepler's third law, this can be written as,

$T^2 \propto R^3$

$T^2 = kR^3$

Substituting the values, we get the value of constant k for mars.

$687^2 = k\times (2.279 \times 10^{11})^3$

$k = 3.92 \times 10^{-29}$

The value of constant k is the same for Earth as well, also we know that the orbital period for Earth is 365 days. So the R is calculated as given below.

$365^3 = 3.92\times 10^{-29} R^3$

$R^3 = 3.39 \times 10^{33}$

$R= 1.50 \times 10^{11}\;\rm m$

Hence we can conclude that the distance of the earth from the sun is $1.50 \times 10^{11}\;\rm m$ .
