<h2>Answer: Eccentricity </h2>

From the 6 characteristic orbital elements of the orbit of a body around another more massive, its eccentricity will indicate the shape of the orbit.

Now, going to the specific case of planets, according to Kepler's 1st Law, the planets revolve around the Sun in <u>elliptical orbits</u>.

In this context, the ellipse is a conic, whose eccentricity $e$ is between 0 and 1:

$0$

When its value is 0 we are talking about a circular orbit and when it is 1, a parabolic orbit.

That is, the nearer to the value of 1 <u>(without reaching 1)</u> the eccentricity of the orbit is, the more elliptical it will be.

Therefore, Planetary orbits that are more elliptical have a greater eccentricity.

Answer:

My scenario would be A Car vs. a guard rail on a road. You have a car that is coming down a Highway at a speed of 43 Mph Miles per hour (69.2018 Kmh)

And it hits a steel guardrail and the car smashes in at the front and the guardrail is only bent while the car has the bumper and the hood along with the headlights and windshield along with the passenger side window break.

Explanation:

This is caused by so much force reacting from one object to another but also depends on molecular density.

Answer:

I believe D

Explanation:

You need to have a more accurate reading and you want to test it multiple times throughout the week though to get a base resting rate.

I hope this is correct good luck!

Lori’s family is on a road trip. They split their drive into the five legs listed in the table. Find the average velocity for ea

NARA [144]

It's not possible to answer the question exactly the way it's written.
That's because we don't know anything about the direction they
drive at any time during the trip.

You see, "velocity" is not just a word that you use for 'speed' when
you want to sound smart and technical, like this question is doing.
"Velocity" is a quantity that's made up of speed AND THE DIRECTION
of the motion. If you don't know the direction of the motion, then you
CAN'T tell the velocity, only the speed.

Here are the average speeds that Lori's family drove on each leg
of their trip:

Speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance) .

Leg-A:
Speed = 15km/10min = 1.5 km/min

Leg-B:
Speed = 20km/15min = (1 and 1/3) km/min

Leg-C
Speed = 24km/12min = 2 km/min

Leg-D:
Speed = 36km/9min = 4 km/min

Leg-E:
Speed = 14km/14min = 1 km/min

From lowest speed to highest speed, they line up like this:

[Leg-E] ==> [Leg-B] ==> [Leg-A] ==> [Leg-C] ==> [Leg-D]
1.0 . . . . . . . . 1.3 . . . . . . . 1.5 . . . . . . . 2.0 . . . . . . . 4.0 . . . . km/minute

Whoever drove Leg-D should have been roundly chastised
and then abandoned by the rest of the family.  36 km in 9 minutes
(4 km per minute) is just about 149 miles per hour !

At what water temperature will additional heat energy need to be added before the temperature will change again?

Katyanochek1 [597]

That would be 0 degrees Celsius aka the melting point of water.... If you look at the diagram I attached you notice that at 0 degrees Celsius it is flat, this is because much heat is needed at this point for water to rise to 1 degree... It is the same for the boiling point (100)

Hope this helps! (If correct, please rank as brainliest answer) :)
