There are only two types of planetary motion and these kinds are revolution and rotation. Revolution is the act of the planets in the solar system to move around or "revolve" around the sun while rotation is done in which the planet "rotates" on its axis. In addition, the earth revolves around the sun in 365 and 1/4 days.

Answer: Planetary motion refers to the type of motion in which a planet moves. Different planets have different planetary motion, with variation in their speed and moving direction.

The different types of planetary motion are as follows-

  1. <u>Rotation-</u> Every planet rotates around its own axis. This rotational speed is different for different planets. Some of them rotates in clockwise and some in anticlockwise direction. For example, earth rotates about its axis at nearly 24 hours.
  2. <u>Revolution-</u> Every planet revolves around the sun. The time required by planets to complete one revolution again differs from planet to planet. The inner planets because of its smaller radius takes lesser amount of time to make one complete rotation, in comparison to the outer planets. For example, earth completes one revolution in 365.5 days.

A compressed spring has elastic potential energy. Please select the best answer from the choices provided T F
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer: True

Explanation:

As the spring is compressed, it acumulates energy, and the spring "wants to release that energy". This acumulated energy, (potential energy) is called "elastic potential energy" because of the elastical nature of the spring, that when compressed it wants to return to the original shape. So the sentence is true

Absolute advantage is the capability of a commercial entity to produce goods using fewer resources compared to rivals. Using the same inputs, an entity with an absolute advantage produces a larger output compared to competitors. It means the firm has a lower marginal cost of production. Therefore, its products will have the lowest prices in the market.

A plane flies along a straight line path after taking off, and it ends up 220 km farther east and 100.0 km farther north, relati
love history [14]

Answer:

North east

Explanation:

The distance travelled by a plane from one point to another is the shortest distance between the two points. This distance travelled is usually a straight line path from point 1 to point 2.

Since the plane ends up 220 km farther east and 100.0 km farther north, the direction of flight for the plane is in the North-East direction.

Let x represent the distance travelled by the plane. Hence:

x² = 100² + 220²

x² = 58400

x = 241.66 km
