Kepler noticed an imaginary line drawn from a planet to the Sun and this line swept out an equal area of space in equal times, If we then draw a triangle out from the Sun to a planet’s position at one point in time, it is notice that the area doesn't change even after the planet has left the original position say like after 2 to 3days or 2hours. So to have same area of triangle means that the the planet move faster when that are closer to the sun and slowly when they are far from the sun.
This led to Kepler's law of orbital motion.
First Law: Planetary orbits are elliptical with the sun at a focus.
Second Law: The radius vector from the sun to a planet sweeps equal areas in equal times.
Third Law: The ratio of the square of the period of revolution and the cube of the ellipse semi-major axis is the same for all planets.
It is this Kepler's law that makes Newton to come up with his own laws on how planet moves the way they do.
Answer:
time spent = 0.2276
Explanation:
given data
distance = 135 mi
usual speed = 65 mph
today speed = 73 mph
solution
we get here time that is express as
time = 
...................1
usual time = 
= 2.0769 h
today time = 
= 1.8493 h
so we get here time spent as
time spent = 2.0769 h - 1.8493 h
time spent = 0.2276
We know that impulse is simply the product of Force and time:
Impulse = Force * time
Since Force has a unit of Newton or kg m/s^2 and time is in
seconds, therefore impulse can have units as:
N s
or
<span>kg m/s</span>
Answer:
Explanation:
The torque of a force is given by:
where
F is the magnitude of the force
d is the distance between the point of application of the force and the centre of rotation of the system
is the angle between the direction of the force and d
In this problem, we have:
, the force
, the distance of application of the force from the centre (0,0)
, the angle between the direction of the force and a
Therefore, the torque is
