What Kepler's constant ? ? ! ?

The only constant in Kepler's laws is in the third one, where it says something to the
effect that (square of a body's period) / (cube of its distance from the central body)
is a constant.

That means it's a constant for multiple little ones orbiting the same central body.
But it's not the same constant for other central bodies.

It's one constant for the planets, asteroids, and comets orbiting the sun.

It's a different constant for the moon, TV satellites, weather satellites,
and military satellites orbiting the Earth.

A spring on Earth has a 0.500 kg mass suspended from one end and the mass is displaced by 0.3 m. What will the displacement of t
julia-pushkina [17]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the Force of gravity given by Newton's second law (which defines the weight of an object) and at the same time we will apply the Hooke relation that talks about the strength of a body in a system with spring.

The extension of the spring due to the weight of the object on Earth is 0.3m, then

F_k = F_{W,E}

kx_1 = mg

The extension of the spring due to the weight of the object on Moon is a value of x_2, then

kx_2 = mg_m

Recall that gravity on the moon is a sixth of Earth's gravity.

kx_2 = m\frac{g}{6}

kx_2 = \frac{1}{6} mg

kx_2 = \frac{1}{6} kx_1

x_2 = \frac{1}{6} x_1

We have that the displacement at the earth was x_1 = 0.3m, then

x_2 = \frac{1}{6} 0.3

x_2 = 0.05m

Therefore the displacement of the mass on the spring on Moon is 0.05m

Which of the following statements is/are true? Check all that apply. A nonconservative force permits a two-way conversion betwee
saul85 [17]

Answer:

A conservative force permits a two-way conversion between kinetic and potential energies.

The work done by a nonconservative force depends on the path taken.

A potential energy function can be specified for a conservative force.

Explanation:

A conservative force is defined as a force whose work done does not depend on the path taken, but only on the initial and final position of motion.

This means that for a conservative force, it is possible to defined a potential energy function U which depends only on the position of the object. An example of conservative force is gravity: the gravitational potential energy of an object, in fact, depends only on its position in the field, not on the path taken.

This behaviour also implies that when an object moves from A to B and then back from B to A, the potential energy gained (or lost) moving from A to B is lost (or re-gained) when moving from B to A. This means that the total mechanical energy (sum of kinetic energy and potential energy) of the object is conserved, and therefore there is a constant conversion between potential and kinetic energy during the motion.

A non-conservative force instead does not show this properties, as the work done by it depends on the path taken, and therefore it is not possible to define a potential energy function. An example of non-conservative force is friction.

According to what we wrote above, therefore, the only correct statements are:

A conservative force permits a two-way conversion between kinetic and potential energies.

The work done by a nonconservative force depends on the path taken.

A potential energy function can be specified for a conservative force.
