The Kepler's laws predict the planetary motion, so there are three laws for this, namely:

1. The orbit of a planet is an ellipse with the Sun (the sun is a star!) at one of the two focus.

2. A line segment joining a planet and the Sun sweeps out equal areas during equal intervals of time.

3. The square of the orbital period of a planet is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its orbit.

So, let's use second law. The Sun sweeps out equal areas during equal intervals of time means that if A = B, the time the planet takes to travel A1A2 is equal to the time the planet takes to travel B1B2, but given that A = 2B, then takes twice the time to travel A1A2 compared to B1B2.

As a glacier melts, the volume V of the ice, measured in cubic kilometers, decreases at a rate modeled by the differential equat
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

the volume in terms of time t ⇒ \\V = e^{0.05t} + 399\\

Explanation:

Given that :

\frac{dv}{dt}= kv\\\\\int\limits \, \frac{dv}{v}=  \int\limits \, kdt\\In v = kt + C_1\\v = e^{kt} + C\\400 = e^{k*0} + C\\400 = 1 + C\\C = 400 -1\\C = 399

V = e^{kt} + 399

When v = 300 ;  \frac{dv}{dt}= - 15

then

\frac{dv}{dt}= kv\\\\-15 = 300*k\\\\k = \frac{-15}{300}\\\\\\k = \frac{-1}{20}\\\\k = -0.05

∴ \\V = e^{0.05t} + 399\\

Therefore, the volume in terms of time t ⇒ \\V = e^{0.05t} + 399\\

Under what conditions does the magnitude of the average velocity equal the average speed?
Dmitry [639]
So when the body moves in a straight line the average velocity is equal to the average speed. average velocity would be equal to average speed when the total distance travelled equals the net displacement of a particle. this happens when a particle moves along a straight line in a fixed direction.

The part of the lithosphere under the ocean are less dense then those under the continents. True or false
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The outer part of the Earth that is hard and solid is termed as lithosphere. It is the outermost part of the Earth's surface. The lithosphere covered under the oceans is the oceanic lithosphere while the lithosphere comprising the continental area is the continental lithosphere. Oceanic lithosphere is denser than the continental lithosphere because of the thin layer of the Earth that exists under the oceans.
