Supposedly there is life on Mars but it’s early to say for sure
Thank you for your question, what you say is true, the gravitational force exerted by the Earth on the Moon has to be equal to the centripetal force.
An interesting application of this principle is that it allows you to determine a relation between the period of an orbit and its size. Let us assume for simplicity the Moon's orbit as circular (it is not, but this is a good approximation for our purposes).
The gravitational acceleration that the Moon experience due to the gravitational attraction from the Earth is given by:
ag=G(MEarth+MMoon)/r2
Where G is the gravitational constant, M stands for mass, and r is the radius of the orbit. The centripetal acceleration is given by:
acentr=(4 pi2 r)/T2
Where T is the period. Since the two accelerations have to be equal, we obtain:
(4 pi2 r) /T2=G(MEarth+MMoon)/r2
Which implies:
r3/T2=G(MEarth+MMoon)/4 pi2=const.
This is the so-called third Kepler law, that states that the cube of the radius of the orbit is proportional to the square of the period.
This has interesting applications. In the Solar System, for example, if you know the period and the radius of one planet orbit, by knowing another planet's period you can determine its orbit radius. I hope that this answers your question.
Answer:A
Explanation:matter normally occurs in three phases;solid, liquid and gases. They may change from one phase to another due to temperature difference.
The molecules that makes up solids are held together by bonds. When heat is added,the molecules begin to move as a result,the bonds break and it turns to liquid.this process is called melting. The reverse of melting is freezing.
Liquid are made up of molecules that moves more freely than solids. When heat is added to liquid,the molecules gain more energy and begins to move faster. This causes them to turn to gases.
This process is called evaporation. It occurs at different temperature for different substances.
The particles of gases move more faster and are separated by large distances. A gas can change back to a liquid through condensation.
The process by which the heat energy is transmitted between the atoms or molecules is known as conduction.
Explanation:
Conduction is the transfer of heat through the material that are caused by temperature gradient with the material ends in heat flux. The heat transfer done by movement and mixing of a fluid is known as convection.
If a fluid is taken and it is kept as stationary. If there is a temperature gradient across that fluid, there would be transfer of heat that occurs in the fluid. It is negligible when compared to convective heat transfer.
Because of the heat transfer from solid to solid, density of liquid changes and start to move in upward direction due to low density. This type of motion is known as convection currents.
The tactile system is actually made up of two distinct skin senses;
protective and the discriminative system. The function of the protective system
is to alert us to harmful stimuli. The receptors of the system are the hairs of
our skin, head and genitals. The discriminative system is to show us what we
are touching, where on our bodies is touching us and what are touching us. The receptors
for his system are the hands, fingers, soles of feet and mouth and tongue.
