2. What's true about the elliptical path that the planets follow around the sun? A. A line can be drawn from the planet to the s

un that sweeps out equal areas in equal times. B. A line can be drawn from the planet to the sun that follows the same curve as the ellipse. C. A scalar can be measured from the angle that the planet travels relative to the sun's orbit. D. A vector can be drawn from the center of one planet to the center of an adjacent planet

Answer:

A. A line can be drawn from the planet to the sun that sweeps out equal areas in equal times.

Explanation:

The planetary laws by Kepler define the motion of the planets. The law describes that planets revolve around the sun in elliptical paths with sun at of the focus. The line joining the sun and the planet sweeps equal areas in equal amount of time. The square of period of revolution is proportional to the cube of distance of the planet from the sun.

'A' is Kepler's 2nd law of planetary motion. It's the one to pick.

'B' is true, but so what ? It doesn't show anything.

'C' is nonsense.

'D' is true, but the vector doesn't show anything.

A disk of radius 10 cm speeds up from rest. it turns 60 radians reaching an angular velocity of 15 rad/s. what was the angular a
stepan [7]

Answer:

a) α = 1.875 \frac{rad}{s^{2} }

b) t = 8 s

Explanation:

Given:

ω1 = 0 \frac{rad}{s}

ω2 = 15 \frac{rad}{s}

theta (angular displacement) = 60 rad

*side note: you can replace regular, linear variables in kinematic equations with angular variables (must entirely replace equations with angular variables)*

a) α = ?

(ω2)^2 = (ω1)^2 + 2α(theta)

15^{2} = 0^{2} + 2(α)(60)

225 = 120α

α = 1.875 \frac{rad}{s^{2} }

b)

α = (ω2-ω1)/t

t = (ω2-ω1)/α = (15-0)/1.875 = 8

t = 8 s

An object of mass m is hung from a spring and set into oscillation. The period of the oscillation is measured and recorded as T.
sergejj [24]

Answer:\sqrt{2}T

Explanation:

Given

object of mass m is suspended from spring and set in oscillation with time Period T

We know Time period of a mass in oscillation is given by

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}

where k=spring constant

When mass m is replaced by a mass of 2 m time period is given by

T'=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{2m}{k}}

T'=\sqrt{2}\times 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}

T'=\sqrt{2}T

i.e. New time period becomes \sqrt{2} times of previous one

A projectile is fired from the origin (at y = 0 m) as shown in the diagram. The initial velocity
Viktor [21]

Answer:

-26 m/s.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since the vertical initial velocity is 26 m/s and the vertical final velocity is 0 m/s at P, we compute the time to reach P:

t=\frac{0m/s-26m/s}{-9.8m/s^2} =2.65s

With which we compute the maximum height:

y=26m/s*2.65s-\frac{1}{2}*9.8m/s^2*(2.65s)^2 \\\\y=34.5m

Therefore, the final velocity until the floor, assuming P as the starting point (Voy=0m/s), turns out:

v_f=\sqrt{0m/s-(-9.8m/s^2)*2*34.5m}\\ \\v_f=-26m/s

Which is clearly negative since it the projectile is moving downwards the starting point.

Regards.

A spherical weather balloon is filled with hydrogen until its radius is 4.40 m. Its total mass including the instruments it carr
ipn [44]

Answer:

4515.49484 N

4329.10484 N

Explanation:

r = Radius of balloon = 4.4 m

m = Mass of balloon with instruments = 19 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Volume of balloon

v=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{4}{3}\pi 4.4^3\\\Rightarrow v=356.8179\ m^3

The Buoyant force = Weight of the air displaced

F=\rho vg\\\Rightarrow F=1.29\times 356.8179\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow F=4515.49484\ N

The buoyant force acting on the balloon is 4515.49484 N

Net force on the balloon

F_n=F-W\\\Rightarrow F_n=4515.49484-19\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow F_n=4329.10484\ N

The net force on the balloon is given by 4329.10484 N

As the balloon goes up the pressure outside reduces as the density of air decreases while the air pressure inside the balloon is high hence, the radius of the balloon tend to increase as it rises to higher altitude.
