The Lens Changes Shape to Focus Near Objects. Light rays from objects that are close to the eye are not parallel. Therefore, the eye must bend them more in order to focus the rays on the retina. To accomplish this, the lens change shape.

(a) The Sun orbits the Milky Way galaxy once each 2.60 x 108y , with a roughly circular orbit averaging 3.00 x 104 light years i

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

Part a)

$a_c = 1.67 \times 10^{-10} m/s^2$

Part b)

$v = 2.18 \times 10^5 m/s$

Explanation:

Time period of sun is given as

$T = 2.60 \times 10^8 years$

$T = 2.60 \times 10^8 (365 \times 24 \times 3600) s$

$T = 8.2 \times 10^{15} s$

Now the radius of the orbit of sun is given as

$R = 3.00 \times 10^4 Ly$

$R = 3.00 \times 10^4 (3\times 10^8)(365 \times 24 \times 3600)m$

$R = 2.84 \times 10^20 m$

Part a)

centripetal acceleration is given as

$a_c = \omega^2 R$

$a_c = \frac{4\pi^2}{T^2} R$

$a_c = \frac{4\pi^2}{(8.2\times 10^{15})^2}(2.84 \times 10^{20})$

$a_c = 1.67 \times 10^{-10} m/s^2$

Part b)

orbital speed is given as

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

$v = \frac{2\pi (2.84 \times 10^{20})}{8.2 \times 10^{15}}$

$v = 2.18 \times 10^5 m/s$

How is work calculated?

BartSMP [9]

Work is force times distance. If there's no distance, there's no work being done.

How can you be both at rest and also moving at 100,000 km/h at the same time

4vir4ik [10]

You could be lying completley still on your bed, and all though it seems you are at rest, you are moving along with the earth around the sun and hence are motion. This is why 'being at rest' is more of a relative term. Hope this helps!
