The velocity vector of the planet points toward the center of the  circle is the following is true about a planet orbiting a star in uniform circular  motion.

A. The velocity vector of the planet points toward the center of the  circle.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Motion of the planet around the star is mentioned to be uniform and around a circular path. Objects in uniform circular motion motion has constant angular speed but the velocity of the object will not remain constant. Since the planet is in circular motion the direction of velocity vector at a particular point is tangential to the circular path at that particular point.

Thus at every point, the direction of velocity vector changes and this means the velocity is never constant. The objects in uniform circular motion has centripetal acceleration which means that velocity vector of the planet points toward the center of the  circle.

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

We have the following relation between power, P and intensity, I

I = P/(4*pi*r^2)

= 10^3/(4*pi*(35000*10^3))

= 6.5*10^-14 W/M^2

We also have the following relationship between electric field and electromagnetic radiation thus

I = (ceE^2)/2

Hence E = \sqrt{2I/ce}

substituting the values of I, c and e, we have

7*10^-6 V/m

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

3.982 kg

Explanation:

The latent heat of vaporization = 540 cal/g

= 5.4 ×10⁵ cal/kg

L = 5.4 ×10⁵ × 4.19

  = 2.26 × 10⁶ J/kg

Q = 12 × 750,000

= 9, 000, 000

= 9 × 10⁶ J

the maximum number of kg of water (at 100 degrees Celsius) that could be boiled into steam (at 100 degrees Celsius) is:

= \frac{ 9*10^6}{2.26*10^6 }

= 3.982 kg
