Answer:
Ohm's Law. The relationship between voltage, current, and resistance is described by Ohm's law. This equation, i = v/r, tells us that the current, i, flowing through a circuit is directly proportional to the voltage, v, and inversely proportional to the resistance, r.
Explanation:
Which body is in equilibrium?
(1) a satellite orbiting Earth in a circular orbit
. No. The forces on it are unbalanced. There's only one force acting on it ... the force of gravity, pulling it toward the center of the Earth. That's a centripetal force, and the satellite is experiencing centripetal acceleration.
(2) a ball falling freely toward the surface of Earth. No. The forces on it are unbalanced. There's only one force acting on it ... the force of gravity, pulling it toward the center of the Earth. The ball is accelerating toward the ground.
<em>
(3) a car moving with a constant speed along a straight, level road. YES.</em> We don't even need to analyze the forces, just look at the car. It's moving in a straight line, and its speed is not changing. The car's acceleration is zero ! That right there tells us that the NET force ... the sum of all forces acting on the car ... is zero. THAT's called 'equilibrium'.
(4) a projectile at the highest point in its trajectory. No. The forces on it are unbalanced. There's only one force acting on it ... the force of gravity, pulling it toward the center of the Earth. The projectile is accelerating toward the ground.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Measurements of how orbital speeds depend on distance from the center of our galaxy tell us that stars in the outskirts of the galaxy. True or False
stars in the outskirt orbit the galactic center
the object mean orbital speed depends only on the Earth's mass and the semi-major axis (half the longest diameter) of the object's orbit. worthy of note. the orbital speed changes depending on where in the orbit the object is. It will be greatest when closest to Earth and least when furthest from Earth.
Projectile motion contains both horizontal and vertical motion.
Answer:
Explanation:
In optics, the refractive index of a material is a dimensionless number that describes how fast light travels through the material. It is defined as where c is the speed of light in vacuum and v is the phase velocity of light in the medium or for short the ratio of the velocity of light in a vacuum to its velocity in a specified medium.
