Answer:
When it's closest to the sun.
Explanation:
The force of gravity acting on a planet is equal to its mass times its centripetal acceleration.
Fg = m v^2 / r
The force of gravity is defined by Newton's law of universal gravitation as:
Fg = mMG / r^2
Therefore:
mMG / r^2 = m v^2 / r
MG / r = v^2
v increases as r decreases. So the planet is moving fastest when it's closest to the sun, also known as the <em>perihelion</em>.
Answer:
v = 29.4 m / s
Explanation:
For this exercise we can use the conservation of mechanical energy
Lowest starting point.
Em₀ = K = ½ m v²
final point. Higher
= U = m g h
Let's use trigonometry to lock her up
cos 60 = y / L
y = L cos 60
Height is the initial length minus the length at the maximum angle
h = L - L cos 60
h = L (1- cos 60)
energy is conserved
Em₀ = Em_{f}
½ m v² = mgL (1 - cos 60)
v = 2g L (1- cos 60)
let's calculate
v² = 2 9.8 3.0 (1- cos 60)
v = 29.4 m / s
The third choice.
