Net force is 5000 - 1000 = 4000 N
F = ma
4000 = 200a
a = 20 m/s^2
It really depends on how far or close the planet is from the sun
equivalent force was applied
N
W E
S
because its is being pulled by south and west it will travel south west.
Answer:
Explanation:
The distance of Earth from the Sun is and of Mars from the Sun is . Let assume that both planets have circular orbits. The centripetal accelaration can be found by using the following expression:
Since planet has translation at constant speed, this formula is applied to compute corresponding speeds:
Earth:
Mars:
Now, centripetal accelarations can be found:
Earth:
Mars:
The ratio of Earth's centripetal acceleration to Mars's centripetal acceleration is:
