A planet orbits a star in an elliptical orbit. At a particular instant the momentum of the planet is

Physics
1 answer:
Masja [62]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

L = m v r (The momentum remains constant)

Explanation:

Even in an ellipsoidal orbit, the law of conservation of angular momentum always apply. When the plant approached the perihelion, the radius of the orbit decreases and the speed of the star increases to conserve the momentum. Similarly, when the planet approaches the aphelion, the speed of the star decreases as the radius increases to conserve the momentum. So, the momentum at a particular instant can be calculated by L = m v r

Identify which one is chemical change, chemical property,physical change and physical property
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Heat conductivity: Physical property

Silver tarnishing: chemical change

Sublimation: physical change

Magnetizing steel: physical property

Length of a metal object: physical property

Shortening melting: physical property

exploding dynamite: chemical change

combustible: chemical property

water freezing: physical change

Acid resistance: chemical property

brittleness: physical property

milk souring: chemical change

baking bread: chemical change

Explanation:

First you need to understand the differences between physical and chemical change; physical and chemical property.

<u>Physical properties vs chemical properties:</u>

Physical properties are properties that you can observe without changing the substance's composition. This means you can measure these properties without changing them chemically.

Chemical properties, on the other hand, are properties are not as direct. These properties are generally determined by the way the react with other substances changing their composition.

<u>Physical changes vs chemical changes:</u>

A substance that undergoes physical change does not change in chemical composition. They may look physically different in terms of size and shape, but overall, their chemical composition remains constant. The best example would be water. Water can change phases, from solid to liquid when they melt. Essentially, they look like different substances, but the change is only physical and not chemical.

Chemical change, is different by the fact that they change in chemical composition. Bonds are broken and/or made through the reaction, which changes them not only physically but chemically as well. Some of the most indicative signs of a chemical change occurring are: change in color, odor, production of gas, production of light/heat.
