<u>Answer </u>

He should make the arrow for “Path” curve downward.

<u>Explanation </u>

The force of gravity is usually directly downward. So from the diagram, it is correctly labelled.

If the object was given a horizontal force, the direction of the inertial is also correct. Inertial is the force the resist the change of state of motion.

What Hector should change is the path followed by the object. It will be a curve not a straight line as it is drawn.

The correct answer is He should make the arrow for “Path” curve downward.

Let us review the answers given.
1. He should switch the labels "Gravity" and "Inertia".
These labels are correct, so no change is required.

2. He should make the arrow for "Path" curve downward.
This statement is correct.

3. He should switch the labels "Inertia" and "Path".
No change is required.

4. He should make the arrow for "Inertia" curve downward.
This statement is incorrect.

Answer:
Hector should make the arrow for "Path" curve downward as shown in the figure.

If our planet was twice as far away how would the Earth’s orbit change?

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

One of the indirect proofs that orbits change is actually in the growth of our own teeth when we were children. our teeth are some of the most basic, and primitive

parts of our bodies. They grow on a 9 day cycle, which was an ancient full moon to full moon cycle when the Earth and the Moon were a lot smaller, and closer together, and the co-orbital period was only 9 days, not the 29.5 days that it is currently.

So Given any two " Planets " that co-orbit a common gravitational center, the larger planet will grow larger far faster than the smaller planet, and the larger planet will accelerate the smaller planet to a higher orbit with a longer period, and decelerate itself to a lower orbit with a longer period, and the absolute value of the center to center distance will increase, and the orbital period will increase. The two orbs and their common gravitational center will remain co-linear through out the gradual growing and changing process.

This is an important process for the enlargement of the solar system as time passes, and an important process for larger galaxies as they attract and merge with smaller galaxies.

All of the planets grow larger at an accelerating rate, and thus systems spiral outward concentrating mass into larger and fewer galaxies, solar systems, and planet - moon systems.

For any pure substance, the boiling point and melting point will always remain

zmey [24]

For any pure substance, the boiling point and melting point will always remain sharp or distinct. This is because the substance has uniform properties all throughout. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions.

Use the drop-down menus to complete each statement.

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

The amount of matter in an object is its mass

An action that has the ability to change an object's state of motion is a force

The rate at which velocity changes over time is acceleration

Explanation:

- Mass is a scalar quantity that gives a measure of the amount of matter contained in an object/substance. The SI unit of the mass is the kilogram (kg). Mass is an intrinsec property of an object, that means that it does not change when the object is moved in another location.

- A force is a vector quantity, that indicates an action exerted on an object that changes the state of motion of the object. It is measured in Newtons (N). According to Newton's second law, the acceleration of an object is equal to the net force exerted on the object divided by its mass:

$a=\frac{F}{m}$

- Acceleration is a vector quantity, which is equal to the ratio between the change in velocity of an object and the time interval taken for that change to occur. It is measured in meters per second squared ( $m/s^2$ ). Mathematically, it is defined as

$a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}$
