Planet geos in orbit a distance of 1

AfilCa [17]3 years ago

Answer:

8 years

Explanation:

Kepler's third law states that the ratio between the cube of the distance of a planet from its star and the square of its orbital period is constant for all the planets orbiting around that star:

\frac{d^3}{T^2}=const.

where d is the distance of the planet from the star and T is the orbital period.

By applying this law to the two planets of this problem, we can write

\frac{d_g^3}{T_g^2}=\frac{d_L^3}{T_L^2}

where d_g=1 AU is the distance of geos from the star, T_g=1 y is its orbital period, d_L=4 AU is the distance of logos from the star. Re-arranging the equation , we can find T_L, the orbital period of logos around the star:

T_L=\sqrt{\frac{T_g^2 d_L^3}{d_Lg^3}}=\sqrt{\frac{(1 y)^2 (4 AU)^3}{(1 AU)^3}}=\sqrt{4^3}=8 years

Planet Geos in orbit a distance of 1 A.U. (astronomical unit) from the star Astra has an orbital period of 1 "year." If planet Logos is 4 A.U. from Astra, how long does Logos require for a complete orbit?

Holding onto a tow rope moving parallel to a frictionless ski slope, a 70.1 kg skier is pulled up the slope, which is at an angl
lara [203]

Answer:

given,

mass of the skier = 70.1 Kg

angle with horizontal, θ = 8.6°

magnitude of the force,F = ?

a) Applying newton's second law

   m g sin\theta - F_{rope} = ma

 velocity is constant, a = 0

   m g sin\theta - F_{rope} =0

   F_{rope} = m g sin\theta

   F_{rope} = 70.1\times 9.8\times sin 8.6^0

  F_{rope}= 102.73\ N

b) now, when acceleration, a = 0.135 m/s²

   F_{rope}-m g sin\theta = ma

 velocity is constant, a = 0.135 m/s₂

   F_{rope} = m g sin\theta+ma

   F_{rope} = 70.1\times 9.8\times sin 8.6^0+70.1\times 0.135

  F_{rope}= 112.19\ N

A 3,000 kg truck moving at +10 m/s hits a 1,000 kg parked car which moves off at +15 m/s What is the velocity of
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

v₃ = 5 [m/s]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the definition of linear momentum, which tells us that momentum is equal to the product of mass by Velocity.

P = m*v

where:

P = linear momentum [kg*m/s]

m = mass [kg]

v = velocity [m/s]

We must also clarify that the momentum is preserved i.e. it is equal before the collision and after the collision

Pbeforecollision = Paftercollision

(m₁*v₁) + (m₂*v₂) = (m₁*v₃) + (m₂*v₄)

where:

m₁ = mass of the truck = 3000 [kg]

v₁ = velocity of the truck = 10 [m/s]

m₂ = mass of the car = 1000 [kg]

v₂ = velocity of the car before the collision = 0 (the car is parked)

v₃ = velocity of the truck after the collision [m/s]

v₄ = velocity of the car after the collision = 15 [m/s]

(3000*10) + (1000*0) = (3000*v₃) + (1000*15)

30000 = 3000*v₃ + 15000

3000*v₃ = 30000 - 15000

3000*v₃ = 15000

v₃ = 5 [m/s]

What is the acceleration of an object with a constant velocity
valina [46]

Zero.

Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity over time.

Since in your case there is no change, there is no acceleration, so it is zero:

Or in formula: <span>a=<span><span>Δv</span>t</span></span>

Where a=acceleration, <span>Δv</span>=change in velocity and t=time
