A planet travels in an elliptical path around a star, as shown in the figure. As the planet gets closer to the star, the gravita

tional force that the star exerts on the planet increases. Which statement of reasoning best supports and correctly identifies what happens to the magnitude of the force that the planet exerts on the star as the planet gets closer to the star?
The force remains constant because the mass of the planet remains constant.
A

The force increases because it is part of a Newton’s third law pair of forces with the force that the star exerts on the planet.
B

The force decreases because the planet increases its speed as it gets closer to the star.
C

The force fluctuates such that it increases and decreases because the planet does not travel in a perfectly circular path.

Answer:

The force increases because it is part of a Newton’s third law pair of forces with the force that the star exerts on the planet.

Explanation:

Force between two objects can be expressed by an equation:

F = G • m1 • m2 / r^2,

where m1 and m2 are objects' masses, r is the distance between them, and G is a gravitational constant.

That means that greater the masses or lesser the distance, the force will be greater, and vice versa.

This force exists between any two objects, but is generally extremely weak, so it's best observed with big and large objects with great mass, such as planets and stars.

This force, whatever its magnitude may be, always works on both objects, following the third Newton's law.

So, whatever the force the stat exerts on the planet is, the planet will exert the same amount of force on the star.

25. 00 ml of a buffer solution contains 0. 500 m hclo and 0. 380 m naclo. if 50. 00 ml of water is added to the buffer, what are

The new concentrations of HClO and NaClO are  0.25M and 19M

Calculation of number of moles of each component,

Molarity of HClO = number of moles/volume in lit =  0. 500 M

Number of moles = molarity  of HClO× volume in lit = 0. 500 M× 0.025 L

Number of moles of HClO = 0.0125 mole

Molarity of NaClO  = number of moles/volume in lit =  0. 38 M

Number of moles = molarity of NaClO × volume in lit = 0. 38 M× 0.025 L

Number of moles of  NaClO  = 0.95 mole

Calculation of new concentration at volume 50 ml ( 0.05L)

Molarity of HClO = number of moles/volume in lit = 0.0125 mole/0.05L

Molarity of HClO = 0.25M

Molarity of NaClO  = number of moles/volume in lit = 0.95mole/0.05L

Molarity of NaClO  = 19 M

How well did tossing the pennies simulate half lives?
SSSSS [86.1K]
Its a 50% chance that approx 1/2 of the pennies will land on tails. The next toss will result the same. and so on and so on. showing how a reaction would slowly eliminate 1/2 of the remaining lives per reaction, until nothing is left. I think it is a good stimulation.
