<span>The
formation of the Solar System began 4.6 billion years ago with the
gravitational collapse of a small part of a giant molecular cloud. Most
of the collapsing mass collected in the center, forming the Sun, while
the rest flattened into a proto-planetary disk out of which the planets,
moons, asteroids, and other small Solar System bodies formed.
Hope it helped

Thank you for your question, what you say is true, the gravitational force exerted by the Earth on the Moon has to be equal to the centripetal force.
An interesting application of this principle is that it allows you to determine a relation between the period of an orbit and its size. Let us assume for simplicity the Moon's orbit as circular (it is not, but this is a good approximation for our purposes).
The gravitational acceleration that the Moon experience due to the gravitational attraction from the Earth is given by:
ag=G(MEarth+MMoon)/r2
Where G is the gravitational constant, M stands for mass, and r is the radius of the orbit. The centripetal acceleration is given by:
acentr=(4 pi2 r)/T2
Where T is the period. Since the two accelerations have to be equal, we obtain:
(4 pi2 r) /T2=G(MEarth+MMoon)/r2
Which implies:
r3/T2=G(MEarth+MMoon)/4 pi2=const.
This is the so-called third Kepler law, that states that the cube of the radius of the orbit is proportional to the square of the period.
This has interesting applications. In the Solar System, for example, if you know the period and the radius of one planet orbit, by knowing another planet's period you can determine its orbit radius. I hope that this answers your question.
Answer:
Natural science is concerned with the description, prediction, and understanding of natural phenomena based on empirical evidence from observation and experimentation. It can be divided into two main branches: life science (or biological science) and physical science.
Explanation:
I think the correct answer from the choices presented above is the first option. The characteristics of low energy waves are <span>long wavelengths and low frequencies. Energy is established to be indirectly proportional to wavelengths and frequencies.</span>
Answer:
Explanation:
As we know that the combination is maintained at rest position
So we will take net torque on the system to be ZERO
so we know that
here we will have
so we have
so we have
