D.
All follow an elliptical path that has two foci, rather than a circular path.
Kepler found paths are elliptical, not circular
Answer:
The value of each charge is 4.22 x 10⁻⁵ C
Explanation:
Given;
distance between the two identical charges, d = 2 m
the force of repulsion between these two charges, F = 4N
Apply Coulomb's law;
Therefore, the value of each charge is 4.22 x 10⁻⁵ C
We know the formulas for momentum and energy. But they both involve the mass of
the object, and we don't know the mass of the baseball. What can we do ?
It's not a catastrophe. The question only asks which one is bigger. If we're clever,
we can answer that without ever knowing how much the momentum or the energy
actually is. We know that both baseballs have the same mass, so let's just call it
' M ' and not worry about what it really is.
<u>Momentum of anything = (mass) x (speed)</u>
Momentum of the first baseball = (M) x (4 m/s) = 4M
Momentum of the second one = (M) x (16 m/s) = 16M
The second baseball has 4 times as much momentum as the first one has.
<u>Kinetic energy of anything = 1/2 (mass) x (speed squared)</u>
KE of the first baseball = 1/2 (M) x (4 squared) = 8M
KE of the second one = 1/2 (M) x (16 squared) = 128M
The second baseball has 16 times as much kinetic energy as the first one has.
Answer:
D. Upward force on the shuttle
Explanation:
The hot gas from space shuttles released downward causes an upward force on the shuttle and propels it up the more.
- This hot gas is produced from super cooled oxygen and hydrogen tanks within the shuttle.
- The upward force on the shuttle allows the craft to escape the gravitational pull of the earth on the shuttle
- Special level of rapid acceleration must be attained for the shuttle to escape the earth pull.
A) be too hot to support life
