Why don't planets crash into the Sun from the pull of gravity?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Komok [63]3 years ago
4 0

Newton realized that the reason the planets orbit the Sun is related to why objects fall to Earth when we drop them. The Sun's gravity pulls on the planets, just as Earth's gravity pulls down anything that is not held up by some other force and keeps you and me on the ground.

We observe a distant object in space and see that the spectral lines for hydrogen in the object's light appear at a shorter wave
MrMuchimi

Answer:

This tells us the radial velocity of the object and that the object is approaching or coming towards us.

Explanation:

Certain chemicals radiate with particular wavelengths or colors  when their temperature is raised or when they are charged electrically. Also observable are dark strokes separating the spectrum known as absorption lines

These spectral lines of chemicals are well known as stated above and from the phenomenon of Doppler effect, spectroscopy can be used to detect the movement of a distant object by the change of the emitted frequency of the wavelength

The Doppler effect is used in calculating the radial velocity of a distant object due to the fact that an approaching object compresses its emitted signal wavelength while a receding object has a longer wavelength than normal

Students were investigating properties of matter, but wanted to make sure that when they tested these properties they had proper
Mariana [72]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

An intrinsic property is a property that is internal, that is, it characterizes the substance under study. The possession of an intrinsic property depends on the nature of the substance. An intrinsic property does not depend on amount of substance but on the nature of the substance.

Examples of intrinsic properties include; Density. Solubility, Melting Point, Freezing Point, Boiling Point, Conductivity etc.

Intrinsic properties really represent the matter that is being studied. For instance, the boiling point of water will always be 100°c. No other liquid can boil exactly at that temperature. Hence, this intrinsic property can always be used to identify an unknown liquid as water.

The students were right, studying intrinsic properties accurately represent the matter that is being studied.

How many moles of magnesium, Mg, are there in 4.75 grams of magnesium?
Nina [5.8K]
Molar mass Mg = 24.3 g/mol

1 mole mg ------------ 24.3 g
?? moles mg --------- 4.75 g

4.75 x 1 / 24.3 => 0.195 moles of Mg

hope this helps!
