Distance , d = a+bt^2

The unit of d is in meter and t is in seconds.

So the unit of a a must be meter.

Now we have unit of bt^2 is meter.

So unit of b*second^2 = meter

Unit of b = meter/second^2

So unit of a = m and unit of b = m/s^2.

Newton’s law of universal gravitation a. is equivalent to Kepler’s first law of planetary motion. b. can be used to derive Keple
Finger [1]
Kepler derived his three laws of planetary motion entirely from
observations of the planets and their motions in the sky.

Newton published his law of universal gravitation almost a hundred
years later.  Using some calculus and some analytic geometry, which
any serious sophomore in an engineering college should be able to do,
it can be shown that IF Newton's law of gravitation is correct, then it MUST
lead to Kepler's laws.  Gravity, as Newton described it, must make the planets
in their orbits behave exactly as they do.

This demonstration is a tremendous boost for the work of both Kepler
and Newton.

The drag force pushes opposite your motion as you ride a bicycle. If you double your speed, what happens to the magnitude of the
PIT_PIT [208]

The drag force is directly proportional to the square of the velocity of motion of the object. So as the speed is doubled, the magnitude of drag force will get quadrupled.

<u>Explanation: </u>

Drag force is the opposing or resisting force acting on any object by the medium in which it is moving. So in this case, you are riding a bicycle, thus the medium can be considered as air.

The formula for calculating drag force is as below:

               \text {Drag force }=\frac{1}{2} \rho v^{2} C_{D} A

Here, ρ is the density of the air molecules, v is the velocity or speed of the bicycle, CD is the drag coefficient and A is the area of the bicycle.

In the above equation, only the term velocity will be a varying quantity with respect to time and other quantities will remain constant throughout the single situation of riding of bicycle.

So, the equation can be,

             \text { Drag force }=k v^{2}

Where ,  

     k=\frac{1}{2} \rho C_{D} A (constant for this whole condition)

Now given the speed of bicycle increased from v to 2v, so the initial drag force will be

                   N_{i}=k v^{2}

After increase in speed, the final drag force will be  

                   N_{f}=k(2 v)^{2}

                   N_{f}=4 k v^{2}=4 N_{i}

Thus, if the speed of the bicycle is doubled, the drag force will get increased by four times.

Most of the mass of the Milky Way exists in the form of:<br> a.) starsb.) gasc.) dustd.) dark matter
Sveta_85 [38]
<h2>Answer: dark matter</h2>

It is believed that the Milky Way has 90% dark matter and only 10% ordinary matter (known matter). Because, like gravity, <u>dark matter can not be observed directly</u>, however its existence is inferred through the movement of the stars and the cosmic dust within the galaxy.

It is important to note that dark matter composition is unknown and corresponds to 80% of the matter in the universe. It does not emit or interact with any type of electromagnetic radiation, but it interacts with the known matter through gravity.

Which statement is correct? (a) Net force causes motion. (b) Net force causes change in motion. Explain your answer and give an
Valentin [98]

Answer:

(b) Net force causes change in motion.

Explanation:

There can be a motion even if there is no net force acting on an object.

It can be justified by giving an example:- when object is  moving at constant speed then it has no net force and still is in motion.

If there is a net force acting, then the object will accelerate and this will cause change in motion.

The change in motion can be change in direction of motion, change in speed of motion.

For example when an object is moving in east direction if someone accelerate it this will result in change in motion or change in speed and after some time the net force is applies in the north direction then the object will move in the north direction which proves that the net force also causes change in direction.
