Answer:
(a) - 42700 m/s
(b) - 6.8 x 10^-4 m/s^2
Explanation:
initial velocity of star, u = 20.7 km/s
Final velocity of star, v = - 22 km/s
time, t = 1.99 years
Convert velocities into m/s and time into second
So, u = 20700 m / s
v = - 22000 m/s
t = 1.99 x 365.25 x 24 x 3600 = 62799624 second
(a) Change in planet's velocity = final velocity - initial velocity
= - 22000 - 20700 = - 42700 m/s
(b) Accelerate is defined as the rate of change of velocity.
Acceleration = change in velocity / time
= ( - 42700 ) / (62799624) = - 6.8 x 10^-4 m/s^2
Explanation:
Without the metric system, we'd have a different International System of Units, the metric system is important because 1mm is 0.1cm, 1 cm is 0.01m, with the imperial system the conversion is tedious. The most important feature of the metric system is its base in scientific fact and repeatable standards of measurement
Decide which components you wish to assess yourself. There is no set order in which you do this. you could, for an example assess one or two elements and skip the rest.
