I may be wrong, but I think you're trying to say that Planet-A is
<em>3 times as far from the sun</em> as Planet-C is.
If that's the real question, then the answer is that the period of Orbit-A
is about<em> 5.2</em> times as long as the period of Orbit-C .
Orbital period ≈ (proportional to) (the orbital distance) ^ 3/2 power.
This was empirically demonstrated about 350 years ago by Johannes
and his brilliant Kepple, and derived about 100 years later by Newton
from his formula for the forces of gravity.
Answer:
b. 600,000 J
Explanation:
Applying the law of conservation of energy,
The thermal energy created = Kinetic energy of the suv.
Q' = 1/2(mv²)............... Equation 1
Where Q' = Thermal energy, m = mass of the suv, v = velocity of the suv.
From the question,
Given: m = 3000 kg, v = 20 m/s
Substitute these values into equation 1
Q' = 1/2(3000×20²)
Q' = 600000 J
Hence the right option is b. 600,000 J
The answer would be point A.
Hope this helped you.
