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

Physics

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.

"Two uniform identical solid spherical balls each of mass M and radius R" and moment of inertia about its center 2/5 MR2 are rel
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

he sphere that uses less time is sphere A

Explanation:

Let's start with ball A, for this let's use the kinematics relations

        v² = v₀² - 2g (y-y₀)

indicate that the sphere is released therefore its initial velocity is zero and when it reaches the floor its height is zero y = 0

         v² = 0 - 2 g (0- y₀)

         v = \sqrt{2g y_o}

         v = \sqrt{2 \ 9.8\ H}

         v = 4.427 √H

Now let's work the sphere B, in this case it rolls down a ramp, let's use the conservation of energy

starting point. At the highest point, before you start to move

         Em₀ = U = m g y

final point. At the bottom of the ramp

         Em_f = K = ½ m v² + ½ I w²

notice that we include the kinetic energy of translation and rotation

energy is conserved

          Em₀ = Em_f

          mg H = ½ m v² + ½ I w²

angular and linear velocity are related

          v = w r

          w = v / r

the momentorot of inertia indicates that it is worth

          I = \frac{2}{5} m r²

we substitute

           m g H = ½ m v² + ½ (\frac{2}{5}  m r²) (\frac{v}{r} )²

           gH = \frac{1}{2}  v² + \frac{1}{5}  v² = \frac{7}{10}  v²

           v = \sqrt{\frac{10}{7} \ g H}

           v = \sqrt{ \frac{10}{7}  \ 9.8 \ H}

           v=3.742 √H

Taking the final speeds of the sphere, let's analyze the distance traveled, sphere A falls into the air, so the distance traveled is H.  The ball B rolls in a plane, so the distance (L) traveled can be found with trigonometry

           sin θ = H / L

           L = H /sin θ

we can see that L> H

In summary, ball A arrives with more speed and travels a shorter distance, therefore it must use a shorter time

Consequently the sphere that uses less time is sphere A

What is the difference between speed and velocity?
avanturin [10]

Answer:

speed is the rate of change in distance thus it is scalar physical quantity

while velocity is the rate of change in displacement thus it is a vector physical quantity

Explanation:

vector physical quantity: is a quantity that requires both magnitude and direction to identify

scalar quantity: requires only magnitude to identify.
