Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

If you are in a rotating system newton's law do not work .Adding a frictious force can make the law work. If an orbiting object is in constant freefall under gravity . Even elliptical planet orbits are examples of freefall under gravity. The force F which the planet feels; this force can be resolved into two components, centripetal force F_C and tangential force F_T.

The tangential force causes an acceleration(newton's second law) which decreases the speed and the centripetal force causes the velocity to turn. In there is circular orbit of radius R, F_T=0 and the centripetal force is F_C=Mv^2/R;

The centrifugal force would be a vector with magnitude Mv^2/R( same as that of centripetal) pointing away from the sun but it does not really exist.

*Average Speed v = d/t
Aleks04 [339]

Find the distance traveled by a car that travels with an average speed of 110 km/h for 3.5 h

To solve for distance:

d = v t

d = 110 × 3.5

d = 385 km

How long does it take a baseball moving with an average speed of 35 m/s to travel 18 m?

To solve for time:

t = d/v

t = 18 / 35

t = 0.514286

t = 0.5 s

What is the average speed of a car that travels 870 km in 14.5 h?

To solve for average speed:

v = d/t

v = 870 / 14.5

v = 60 km/h
