Explain how the mass of a planet affects the motion of the planet around the sun?

Physics
1 answer:
vodomira [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The gravitational attraction of the Sun is what holds the planets in their elliptical orbits. So to explain this the mass effects the motion of the planets because the strength of gravitational force depends of the mass.

A solid disk of radius 5.50 cm and mass 1.25 kg , which is rolling at a speed of 1.50 m/s , begins rolling without slipping up a
shtirl [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Deceleration of solid disk = g sin10/1 + k²/r² = g sin 10 / 1 + 1/2 = g sin 10 x 2/3

[ k is radius of gyration of disk which is equal to( 1/√2)x r ]

deceleration a = -1.1345 m/s²

v = u - at , t = u / a = 1.5 / 1.1345 = 1.322 s.

A watermelon is dropped off of a 50 ft bridge, and it explodes upon impact with the ground. How fast was it traveling in mph upo
Drupady [299]

Answer: 56.72 ft/s

Explanation:

Ok, initially we only have potential energy, that is equal to:

U =m*g*h

where g is the gravitational acceleration, m the mass and h the height.

h = 50ft and g = 32.17 ft/s^2

when the watermelon is near the ground, all the potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy, and the kinetic energy can be written as:

K = (1/2)*m*v^2

where v is the velocity.

Then we have:

K = U

m*g*h = (m/2)*v^2

we solve it for v.

v = √(2g*h) = √(2*32.17*50) ft/s = 56.72 ft/s
