At which point does the planet have the least gravitational force acting on it?

2 answers:

Answer:

Point A

Explanation:

Recall that gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the 2 objects.

This means that the farther away the objects are from each other, the lesser their gravitational interaction will be.

In this case we can see that Point A is furthest away from the star, hence this will be the location with the least gravitational force from the star.

Answer:

At which point does the planet have the least gravitational force acting on it?

Explanation:

In an elliptical orbit, when a planet is at its furthest point from the Sun, it is under the least amount of gravity, meaning that the force of gravity is strongest when it is closest.

What is the impulse of a 2 kg object that starts at 10 m/s and comes to a stop over 0.4 seconds?

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer: Impulse = 20 Ns

Explanation:

Impulse is the product of force and time

Also impulse = momentum

Where momentum is the product of mass and velocity.

Given that

M = 2kg

V = 10 m/s

Impulse = MV = 2 × 10 = 20 Ns

A car tire rotates with an average angular speed of 32 rad/s. In what time interval will the tire rotate 3.5 times? Answer in un

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

$\Delta t = 0.687\ s$

Explanation:

given,

Angular speed of the tire = 32 rad/s

Displacement of the wheel = 3.5 rev

Δ θ = 3.5 x 2 π

= 7 π rad

now,

Time interval of the car to rotate 7π rad

using equation

$\omega_{avg} =\dfrac{\Delta \theta}{\Delta t}$

$\Delta t=\dfrac{7\pi}{32}$

$\Delta t = 0.687\ s$

Time taken to rotate 3.5 times is equal to 0.687 s.

A starship travels to a planet that is 20 light years away. The astronauts stay on the planet for 2.0 years before returning at

ad-work [718]

Answer:

astronauts age is 32 years

correct option is e 32 years

Explanation:

given data

travels = 20 light year

stay = 2 year

return = 52 years

to find out

astronauts aged

solution

we know here they stay 2 year so time taken in traveling is

time in traveling = ( 52 -2 ) = 50 year

so it mean 25 year in going and 25 years in return

and distance is given 20 light year

so speed will be

speed = distance / time

speed = 20 / 25 = 0.8 light year

so time is

time = $\frac{t}{\sqrt{1-v^2} }$

time = $\frac{25}{\sqrt{1-0.8^2} }$

time = 15 year

so age is 15 + 2 + 15

so astronauts age is 32 years

so correct option is e 32 years
