Which law of motion accounts for the following statement?
strojnjashka [21]
I know that its not the second law. I'm almost positive its the first one. Please let me know if I'm wrong. This sentence makes no sense when you put it with the third law. So, the first law is my guess...

An asteroid orbiting the Sun has a mass of 4.00×1016 kg. At a particular instant, it experiences a gravitational force of 3.14×1
Ksivusya [100]
<h2>The asteroid is 4.11 x 10¹¹ m far from Sun</h2>

Explanation:

We have gravitational force

                 F=\frac{GMm}{r^2}

           Where G =  6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N m²/kg²

                       M = Mass of body 1

                       M = Mass of body 2

                       r = Distance between them

Here we have

                 M = Mass of Sun = 1.99×10³⁰ kg

                 m = Mass of asteroid = 4.00×10¹⁶ kg

                 F = 3.14×10¹³ N

Substituting

                   F=\frac{GMm}{r^2}\\\\3.14\times 10^{13}=\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 1.99\times 10^{30}\times 4\times 10^{16}}{r^2}\\\\r=4.11\times 10^{11}m

The asteroid is 4.11 x 10¹¹ m far from Sun

If a moving car speeds up until it is going twice as fast, how much kinetic energy doe s it have compared with its initial kinet
dezoksy [38]
The kinetic energy of an object of mass m and velocity v is given by
K= \frac{1}{2} mv^2

Let's call v_i the initial speed of the car, so that its initial kinetic energy is
K_i =  \frac{1}{2} mv_i^2
where m is the mass of the car. 

The problem says that the car speeds up until its velocity is twice the original one, so 
v_f = 2 v_i
and by using the new velocity we can calculate the final kinetic energy of the car
K_f =  \frac{1}{2} mv_f^2 =  \frac{1}{2}m (2 v_i)^2 = 4 ( \frac{1}{2} mv_i^2)=4 K_i
so, if the velocity of the car is doubled, the new kinetic energy is 4 times the initial kinetic energy.
