What is the centripetal force keeping the Earth in orbit?

I found how far the earth travels in one year (340,000,000), The Earths Tangential velocity (29814 m/s), and the centripetal acceleration of the earth (5.928e-3 m/s^2), but what is the centripetal force keeping the earth in orbit?

Answer:

<h2>The force due gravity is the centripetal force.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

A centripetal force can be defined as the force that makes a body to follow a curve path.

So, in this case, the centripetal force is the force that makes Eart orbit around the Sun.

If you think this through, you'll deduct that the force due gravity is the centripetal force, because it's responsible of the Earth orbit around the Sun.

Given the triangle below, what is m<br> A. 46.2<br> B. 41.40<br> C. 48.4<br> D. 38.6°
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

B 41.4

Step-by-step explanation:

complete Pythagoras for general triangles :

c² = a² + b² - 2ab×cos(C)

with "c" being the side opposite of the angle C.

=>

8² = 10² + 12² - 2×10×12×cos(C)

64 = 244 - 240×cos(C)

240×cos(C) = 244 - 64 = 180

cos(C) = 180/240 = 18/24 = 3/4 = 0.75

C = 41.40962211... ≈ 41.4

Each side of a square is increasing at a rate of 6cm/s. At what rate is the area of the square increasing when the area of the s
diamong [38]
Area of a square = length²
A = x²
16 = x²; x = 4
dA/dx = 2x cm²/s
dx/dt = 6 cm/s
Using chain rule:
dA/dt = dA/dx * dx/dt
dA/dt = 2x * 6
dA/dt = 12x
At x = 4,
dA/dt = 12(4) = 48 cm²/s

Find a point slope form for the line with slope 1/5 and passing through the point (-3,-9)
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

y+9=1/5(x+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Point slope formula: y-y1=m(x-x1)

slope=m

m=1/5

-3=x1 -9=y1

y-(-9) =1/5(x-(-3))

simplify...

y+9=1/5(x+3)

hope this helps!! :)
