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

Physics
1 answer:
vodomira [7]4 years ago

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 race car makes one lap around a track of radius 180 m in 90.0 s. What is the centripetal acceleration in m/s2?
kvasek [131]

Answer:

0.9m/s^2 (yours is 0.87, so choose that)

Explanation:

formula for centripetal acceleration:

v^2/r

to find v, we know that f=1/90s, and r=180m.

v=(2pir)/T

v=(2pi(180))/90

v=12.6m/s

now plug into a=v^2/r

a=(12.6)^2/180

a=0.9m/s^2

What two factors determine the color of an object?
slamgirl [31]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

4. the material the object is made of and the color of light that strikes it

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • The color of an object is the wavelength of light that the object reflects, which is determined by the arrangement of electrons in the atoms of the material making the object.
  • <em><u>We could therefore say that the color of object depends on or is determined by the material making up the object as this determines the the wavelengths of light the object reflects. Lastly, the color of light source also determines the color of the object.</u></em>

A ball is dropped from the rest from a high window of a tall building and called for 4 seconds. Neglecting air resistance, the f
diamong [38]

Answer:

-39.2m/s

Explanation:

Given that :

t = 4secs

g = -9.8m/s^2

v = ?

u = 0m/s ( since it was at rest )

V = u +at............. 1

Where v is the final velocity

a = -g = -9.8m/s^2 since the ball was dropped from a height which will eventually make it move against gravity

t = 4secs

Substitute the values into 1

v = 0 - 9.8×4

v = -39.2m/s

You pull your little sister across a flat snowy field on a sled. Your sister plus the sled have a mass of 25 kg. The rope is at
erik [133]

Answer

Work done will be equal to 1229.296 J

Explanation:

We have given mass of the sister m = 25 kg

Angle between rope and ground \Theta =38^{\circ}

Force F = 30 N  

So horizontal force =Fcos\Theta =30\times cos38^{\circ}=23.64N

Distance traveled d = 52 m

'We have to find the wok done

Work done is equal to multiplication of horizontal force and distance

So work done W=23.64\times 52=1229.296J
