Answer:

In  physics, work is defined as a  force  causing the movement—or displacement—of an object. In the case of a constant force, work is the scalar product of the force acting on an object and the displacement caused by that force.

Answer: option D

Explanation:  In physics, you say that a force is "doing work" when the force is acting on an object and causes a movement in the said object. This means that if you start pushing a wall, and the wall does not move, there is no work generated, indifferent of the amount of force applied.

Under this viewpoint, the right option is D.

"Work occurs when a force acts on an object and causes a displacement of that object."

As a planet's semimajor axis gets smaller, its speed will _______ and its period will _________ .
Rufina [12.5K]
Well first of all, a planet doesn't have a semimajor axis, although it's orbit does.

In an orbit with a smaller semimajor axis, the planet moves faster, and its orbital period is shorter.

That's why the International Space Station circles the Earth in less time than the Moon does.

The net torce on an object moving with constant speed in circular motion is in which direction?
aleksley [76]

The correct answer is C) towards the center of the circle.

Although the object is moving at a constant speed it is constantly accelerating due to the constant change in direction as it describes the circular path. This causes a constant change in velocity as velocity is a vector quantity.

For the object to maintain the circular path there has to be centripetal force acting on the object and this centripetal force is directed towards the center of the circle.
