The four inner planets share several features in common.

(Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars)

They are called terrestrial planets because they have solid, rocky surfaces roughly similar to desert and mountainous areas on the earth.

Three Major Characteristics of the Inner Planets. The four inner planets -- Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars -- share several features in common. Astronomers call them the “terrestrial planets” because they have solid, rocky surfaces roughly similar to desert and mountainous areas on the earth.

Does uniform acceleration means increasing acceleration?

tatiyna

Yes. It means that the acceleration increases at a constant rate, for example 3 mph every second.

A skater slides across the ice with an initial velocity of 5.0 m/s. She slows 10 points

zvonat [6]

Explanation:

Given that,

The initial velocity of a skater is, u = 5 m/s

She slows to a velocity of 2 m/s over a distance of 20 m.

We can find the acceleration of skater. It is equal to the rate of change of velocity. So, it can be calculated using third equation of motion as follows :

$v^2-u^2=2as$

a = acceleration

$a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\\a=\dfrac{(2)^2-(5)^2}{2\times 20}\\\\a=-0.525\ m/s^2$

So, her acceleration is $0.525\ m/s^2$ and she is deaccelerating. Also, her initial velocity is given i.e. 5 m/s.

During an early phase of the planet's existence, earth's atmosphere was similar in composition to the atmospheres of mars and ve

KengaRu [80]

The answer is carbon dioxide. This primordial earths’ atmosphere was composed by gasses from degassing of the earth's interior after its formation. It is after the beginning of life that oxygen levels began to rise and levels of carbon dioxide began to reduce in the atmosphere (as a result of photosynthesis).

A 73-kg boy is surfing and catches a wave which gives him an initial speed of 1.6 m/s. He then drops through a height of 1.60 m,

Gnesinka [82]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Conservation of Energy, for which it is necessary that any decrease made through the potential energy, is equivalent to the gain given in the kinetic energy or vice versa.

Mathematically this can be expressed as

$KE_i+PE_i = KE_f+PE_f$
