The Kepler laws of planetary motion are:

1) The planets revolve around the Sun following elliptical orbits, in which the Sun occupies one of the two focii

2) A line segment connecting the Sun with the center of each planet sweeps out equal areas in equal intervals of time --> this means that the speed of the planet changes according to its distance from the Sun: the closer to the Sun, the faster the planet

3) The square of the orbital period of the planets is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of the orbit. In formula

$\frac{T^2}{r^3} = const.$

and the constant in the equation has the same value for every planet orbiting around the Sun.

What electrons are in “motion”, what do you have?

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

When a positive charged object is placed near a conductor electrons are attracted the the object. ... When electric voltage is applied, an electric field within the metal triggers the movement of the electrons, making them shift from one end to another end of the conductor. Electrons will move toward the positive side. As you know, electrons are always moving. They spin very quickly around the nucleus of an atom. As the electrons zip around, they can move in any direction, as long as they stay in their shell.

To reduce inductive reactance, what devices are normally placed on transmission or distribution lines?

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer : Capacitors

Explanation : Capacitors are normally placed on transmission or distribution lines when to reduce inductive reactance.

This is because it enhances electromechanical and voltage stability , limit voltage dips at network nodes and reduces the power loss.

So, we can say that inductive reactance normally replace by the capacitors.
