Answer:
The sun's gravity pulls the planet toward the sun, which changes the straight line of direction into a curve. This keeps the planet moving in an orbit around the sun. Because of the sun's gravitational pull, all the planets in our solar system orbit around it.
Answer:
All these statement are true
Explanation:
Gravity will be acting like a centripetal force for the circular motion of object around earth, which makes it perpendicular to the velocity vector. In the case of elliptical motion, gravity can still be divided into 2 vectors, one parallel and the other perpendicular to the velocity. At the nearest point in elliptical motion, gravity is directly perpendicular to velocity just like in circular motion. At the farthest point, the potential energy is minimized and has been converted into kinetic energy. Therefore at this point the speed is greatest.
Answer:
In physics, the kinetic energy of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion.It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its Stated velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains the kinetic energy unless it's speed changes.
(or in short)"Energy which a body possesses by virtue of being in motion"
Answer:
0.705 m/s²
Explanation:
a) The sprinter accelerates uniformly from rest and reaches a top speed of 35 km/h at the 67-m mark.
Using newton's law of motion:
v² = u² + 2as
v = final velocity = 35 km/h = 9.72 m/s, u = initial velocity = 0 km/h, s = distance = 67 m
9.72² = 0² + 2a(67)
134a = 94.484
a = 0.705 m/s²
b) The sprinter maintains this speed of 35 km/h for the next 88 meters. Therefore:
v = 35 km/h = 9.72 m/s, u = 35 km/h = 9.72 m/s, s = 88 m
v² = u² + 2as
9.72² = 9.72² + 2a(88)
176a = 9.72² - 9.72²
a = 0
c) During the last distance, the speed slows down from 35 km/h to 32 km/h.
u = 35 km/h = 9.72 m/s, v = 32 km/h = 8.89 m/s, s = 200 - (67 + 88) = 45 m
v² = u² + 2as
8.89² = 9.72² + 2a(45)
90a = 8.89² - 9.72²
90a = -15.4463
a = -0.1716 m/s²
The maximum acceleration is 0.705 m/s² which is from 0 to 67 m mark.
Answer:
Block A
Explanation:
Block A will float higher in the water compared to the second Block.
The density of water is 1g/cm³.
According to the principle of floatation "an object that floats in a liquid will displace equal amount of fluid to the weight of the object".
A body will become more submerged in water if it has more density because density is the mass per volume of body.
An object with a higher density than another will sink in the liquid of the one with lesser density.
- Object A has lesser density and will float higher up and displace very little water.
- Object B has higher density and will be more submerged.
