The radial velocity method preferentially detects large planets close to the central star
- what is the Radial velocity:
The radial velocity technique is able to detect planets around low-mass stars, such as M-type (red dwarf) stars.
This is due to the fact that low mass stars are more affected by the gravitational tug of planets.
When a planet orbits around a star, the star wobbles a little.
From this, we can determine the mass of the planet and its distance from the star.
hence we can say that,
option D is correct.

Generally the equation for Kinetic Energy is mathematically given by
Answer:
c)by a factor of four
Explanation:
The total energy of a simple harmonic oscillator is given by
where
k is the spring constant of the oscillator
A is the amplitude of the motion
In this problem, the amplitude of the oscillator is doubled, so
A' = 2A
Therefore, the new total energy is
So, the total energy increases by a factor 4.
If the object is in equilibrium that means that the sum of the forces on it is zero and the net force is zero. If none of the forces changes then the object continues in constant uniform motion. That means constant speed in a straight line.
Answer:
68.585m/sec , 779.1 N
Explanation:
To feel weightless, centripetal acceleration must equal g (9.8m/sec^2). The accelerations then cancel.
From centripetal motion.
F =( mv^2)/2
But since we are dealing with weightlessness
r = 480m
g = 9.8m/s^2
M also cancels, so forget M.
V^2 = Fr
V = √ Fr
V =√ (9.8 x 480) = 4704
= 68.585m/sec.
b) Centripetal acceleration = (v^2/2r) = (68.585^2/960) = 4704/960
= 4.9m/sec^2.
Weight (force) = (mass x acceleration) = 159kg x (g - 4.9)
159kg × ( 9.8-4.9)
159kg × 4.9
= 779.1N
