Answer:
The units of the orbital period P is <em>years </em> and the units of the semimajor axis a is <em>astronomical units</em>.
Explanation:
P² = a³ is the simplified version of Kepler's third law which governs the orbital motion of large bodies that orbit around a star. The orbit of each planet is an ellipse with the star at the focal point.
Therefore, if you square the year of each planet and divide it by the distance that it is from the star, you will get the same number for all the other planets.
Thus, the units of the orbital period P is <em>years </em> and the units of the semimajor axis a is <em>astronomical units</em>.
Answer:
hmax = 1/2 · v²/g
Explanation:
Hi there!
Due to the conservation of energy and since there is no dissipative force (like friction) all the kinetic energy (KE) of the ball has to be converted into gravitational potential energy (PE) when the ball comes to stop.
KE = PE
Where KE is the initial kinetic energy and PE is the final potential energy.
The kinetic energy of the ball is calculated as follows:
KE = 1/2 · m · v²
Where:
m = mass of the ball
v = velocity.
The potential energy is calculated as follows:
PE = m · g · h
Where:
m = mass of the ball.
g = acceleration due to gravity (known value: 9.81 m/s²).
h = height.
At the maximum height, the potential energy is equal to the initial kinetic energy because the energy is conserved, i.e, all the kinetic energy was converted into potential energy (there was no energy dissipation as heat because there was no friction). Then:
PE = KE
m · g · hmax = 1/2 · m · v²
Solving for hmax:
hmax = 1/2 · v² / g
