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) One of the moons of Jupiter, named Io, has an orbital radius of 4.22 108 m and a period of 1.77 days. Assuming the orbit is c
hoa [83]

Answer:

According to Kepler's 3rd law.

It states that the orbital period, T is related to the distance, r as:

T² =  4 π²r³ /G  M

where G is the universal gravitational constant  =  6.673 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

Rearranging for M should give Jupiter's mass.

M =   4 π²r³/GT²

T= 1.77 days × 24 h/day × 60 min/h × 60 s/min = 1.53 × 10⁵ s

r = 4.22x10⁸ m

M = 4π² ((4.22 × 10⁸ m)³/(6.673 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg² x (1.53 × 10⁵ s)²)

M = 1.90 × 10²⁷kg

The mass of Jupiter is 1.90 × 10²⁷kg.

1.90 × 10²⁷kg

T= 7.16 days × 24 h/day × 60 min/h × 60 s/min = 6.19 × 10⁵s

r = 1.07x10⁹ m

M = 4π² ((1.07 × 10⁹ m)³/(6.673 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg² x (6.19 × 10⁵ s)²)

M = 1.90 × 10¹⁷kg

The mass of Jupiter is 1.90 × 10¹⁷kg.

THE RESULTS TO PART A and B ARE NOT CONSISTENT. The reason is because of the difference in radius of each satellites from Jupiter. i.e the farther away the moons, the smaller they become in space and the more the number of days to complete an orbit.

Quentin is playing baseball and is batting. He swings and hits the ball sending it flying to the outfield. Which is greater- the
Bess [88]

Answer:

The force of the ball on the bat is same as the force of the bat on the ball.  

Explanation:

A bat hits the ball and the ball moves to the out filed.

According to the Newton's third law, for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

The action and the reaction forces acts on the two different bodies but the magnitude of the force is same.  

As the ball is hitted by the bat, the bat exerts the force on the ball and the same force is exerted on the bat by the ball according to the Newton's third law.

So, the force of the ball on the bat is same as the force of the bat on the ball but the direction of force is opposite.

Help me! I need to know this for my Veterinarian unit in class. Why do cats hate water?
loris [4]

Another reason why cats hate water is attributed to their history. There is not much in a cat's background to recommend them for successful interactions with bodies of water, be it small or big. Cat's ancestors lived in dry arid places which means rivers or oceans weren't obstacles they had to face.

Hope this helps:)
