Answer:
a) The strength of gravity decreases if one moved away from Jupiter
b) The strength of gravity increases if one fell into Jupiter
Explanation:
The gravitational attraction is given by Newton law of gravitation as follows;
Where;
G = The universal gravitational constant = 6.67408 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/(kg·s²)
M = The mass of Jupiter
m = The mass of the nearby body
R = The distance between the centers of Jupiter and the body
From the equation, we have that the gravitational strength varies inversely with the square of the separation distance between two bodies
Therefore, as one moves away, R increases, and the strength of gravity reduces
Similarly as the body falls into Jupiter, R, reduces the gravitational strength increases.
Answer:
Option D
Explanation:
The work done can be given by the mechanical energy used to do work, i.e., Kinetic energy and potential energy provided to do the work.
In all the cases, except option D, the energy provided to do the useful work is not zero and hence work done is not zero.
In option D, the box is being pulled with constant velocity, making the acceleration zero and thus Kinetic energy of the system is zero. Hence work done in this case is zero.
Speed is a description of how fast an object moves; velocity is how fast and in what direction it moves. In physics, velocity is speed in a given direction. When we say a car travels at 60 km/h, we are specifying its speed.
Answer:
1. Force = mass x acceleration - Newton
2. A planet moves faster in the part of its orbit nearer the Sun and slower when farther from the Sun, sweeping out equal areas in equal times - Kepler
3. For any force, there is an equal and opposite reaction force - Newton
.
4. An object moves at constant velocity if there is no net force acting upon it - Newton
5. The orbit of each planet about the Sun is an ellipse with the Sun at one focus - Kepler.
6. More distant planets orbit the Sun at slower average speeds, obeying the precise mathematical relationship p2-a3 - Kepler.
Explanation:
The three laws of planetary motion formulated by Johannes Kepler or Kepler's laws of planetary motion:
- The first law states that the planets move around the Sun in an elliptical orbit with the Sun at one of the foci.
- The second law states that the line segment joining a planet to the Sun sweeps out equal areas in equal time.
- The third law states that the square of the orbital period (p) of a planet is directly proportional to the cube of the mean distance (a) from the Sun (or semi-major axis of its orbit) i.e., p² is proportional to a³.
The three laws of motion formulated by Sir Isaac Newton or Newton's laws of motion:
- The first law, also known as the law of inertia states that an object at rest or moves at a constant velocity will remain at rest or keep moving at a constant velocity unless it is acted upon by a force.
- The second law states that the total force (F) applied on an object is directly related to the acceleration (a) of that object produced by the applied force and the mass (m) of the object, i.e., F = ma (assuming the mass m is constant).
- The third law, also known as the law of action and reaction states that when an object exerts a force on another object, then the latter exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the former object i.e., for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. The example includes the recoiling of a gun when it fires a bullet forward.
