Answer:

The Two Forces That Keep the Planets in Motion Around the Sun

Gravity. Gravity is the primary force that controls the orbit of the planets around the sun.

Inertia. The physical law that states that objects in motion have a tendency to remain in motion.

Gravity Working with Inertia.

Any moving object in space will travel in a straight line at the same speed forever, planets included. The planets would be moving in straight lines, but the sun's gravity pulls them toward it. The force of gravity causes the moving planets to travel in roughly circular orbits around the sun.

You are at the top of the Empire State Building on the 102nd floor, which is located 373 m above the ground, when your favorite

Liula [17]

Answer:

1.5 m

Explanation:

H = actual height of the superhero = ?

H₀ = height of the superhero as observed = 1.73 m

v = speed of the superhero = 0.50 c

Using the equation

$H = H_{o} \sqrt{1 - \left ( \frac{v}{c} \right )^{2}}$

Inserting the values

$H = 1.73 \sqrt{1 - \left ( \frac{0.50 c}{c} \right )^{2}}$

H = 1.5 m

A charged particle moves in a circular path in a uniform magnetic field.Which of the following would increase the period of the

Bond [772]

Answer:

Increasing its charge

Increasing the field strength

Explanation:

For a charged particle moving in a circular path in a uniform magnetic field, the centripetal force is provided by the magnetic force, so we can write:

$qvB = m\frac{v^2}{r}$

where

q is the charge

v is the velocity

B is the magnetic field

m is the mass

r is the radius of the orbit

The period of the motion is

$T=\frac{2\pi r}{v}$

Re-arranging for r

$r=\frac{Tv}{2\pi}$

And substituting into the previous equation

$qvB = m \frac{Tv^3}{2\pi}$

Solving for T,

$T=\frac{2\pi q B}{m v^2}$

So we see that the period is:

- proportional to the charge and the magnetic field

- inversely proportional to the mass and the square of the speed

So the following will increase the period of the particle's motion:

Increasing its charge

Increasing the field strength

A person sitting on a pier observes incoming waves that have a sinusoidal form with a distance of 2.5 m between the crests. Of a

Doss [256]

Answer:

Part(a): The frequency is $\bf{0.2~Hz}$ .

Part(b): The speed of the wave is $\bf{0.5~m/s}$ .

Explanation:

Given:

The distance between the crests of the wave, $d = 2.5~m$ .

The time required for the wave to laps against the pier, $t = 5.0~s$

The distance between any two crests of a wave is known as the wavelength of the wave. So the wavelength of the wave is $\lambda = 2.5~m$ .

Also, the time required for the wave for each laps is the time period of oscillation and it is given by $T = 5.0~s$ .

Part(a):

The relation between the frequency and time period is given by

$\nu = \dfrac{1}{T}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(1)$

Substituting the value of $T$ in equation (1), we have

$\nu &=& \dfrac{1}{5.0~s}\\~~~&=& 0.2~Hz$

Part(b):

The relation between the velocity of a wave to its frequency is given by

$v = \nu \lambda~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(2)$

Substituting the value of $\nu$ and $\lambda$ in equation (2), we have

$v &=& (0.2~Hz)(2.5~m)\\~~~&=& 0.5~m/s$
