Answer:

  • <u>Planets move around the Sun:</u>

Just because due to difference in mass,m. The Sun posses more gravitational power,G and exerts a force,F(g) on the planets to move around it. As the planets do not fall into the star, as they also have a movement upon there very position or spot.

Explanation:

  • <u>Mass,m of the Celestial objects:</u>

There are a number of objects inside the solar system, as the planets, satellites and the Star which is obviously the red giant known as the Sun varies in there mass,m. As the value of the mass,m contributes in creating the amount of gravitational force,G acting on one another.

So, the planets posses an amount of mass in it and contributes to creating the intensity of force that it posses while interacting with one another inside the solar system. While the planet has less weight as compared to the Sun so, they have less gravitational pull with them, but they don't fall into the star just because they also moves side ways in the orbit.

An object has an acceleration of 6.0 m/s/s. If the net force was doubled and the mass was one-third the original value, then the
alexandr402 [8]

Hahahahaha. Okay.

So basically , force is equal to mass into acceleration.

F=ma

so when F=ma , we get acceleration=6m/s/s

Force is doubled.

Mass is 1/3 times original.

2F=1/3ma

Now , we rearrange , and we get 6F=ma

So , now for 6 times the original force , we get 6 times the initial acceleration.

So new acceleration = 6*6= 36m/s/s

Y_Kistochka [10]
<span>The solution is: Earth circumference is 2*pi*r=25,130 miles 25,130 miles corresponds to 360Âş, so 5,000 miles corresponds to 360*5000/25130 = 71,6Âş 71,6Âş is equivalent to 71,6*2pi/360=1,25 radians Angular velocity is 1,25/9=0,139 rad/h</span>

If Joe rides his bike for 15 minutes at 20 km/hour south, how far has he ridden? (Give the answer in km) Watch the units!
Virty [35]

Answer:

Distance covered by Joe, d = 5 km

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of Joe, v = 20 km/hour

Time taken by Joe, t = 15 minutes = 0.25 h

We need to find the distance he is covering. It can be calculated using definition of speed as :

v=\dfrac{d}{t}

d=v\times t

d=20\times 0.25

d = 5 km

So, Joe covers a distance of 5 km. Hence, this is the required solution.
