As seen from the Earth, the Sun, Moon, and planets all appear to move along the ecliptic. ... Unlike the Sun, however, the planets don't always move in the same direction along the ecliptic. They usually move in the same direction as the Sun, but from time to time they seem to slow down, stop, and reverse direction!
Because of various events in their (unknown) past history that resulted in deviations from the theoretical orbit. That formed in the plain of the ecliptic.
Capturing a large passing comet or asteroid might do it.
Answer:
b)
Explanation:
If the charge is released at rest in an electric field, it will move along the electric field, going to regions of higher electric potential if it is a negative charge (against the field direction) and towards lower potential regions if it is positive (along the field). This means that the charge will gain kinetic energy, energy that only can come from a decrease in the electric potential energy.
For a positive charge: ΔEp = q*ΔV < 0 (as ΔV < 0)
For a negative charge: ΔEp = (-q) *ΔV < 0 (as ΔV > 0)
Answer:
In the first law, an object will not change its motion unless a force acts on it. In the second law, the force on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration. In the third law, when two objects interact, they apply forces to each other of equal magnitude and opposite direction
Explanation:
D, Metamorphism
-Metamorphic rocks are any rocks that change into another rock when subjected to high heat and pressure.
Answer:
The amount of kilograms of ice at -20.0°C that must be dropped into the water to make the final temperature of the system 40.0°C = 0.0674 kg
Explanation:
Heat gained by ice in taking the total temperature to 40°C = Heat lost by the water
Total Heat gained by ice = Heat used by ice to move from -20°C to 0°C + Heat used to melt at 0°C + Heat used to reach 40°C from 0°C
To do this, we require the specific heat capacity of ice, latent heat of ice and the specific heat capacity of water. All will be obtained from literature.
Specific heat capacity of ice = Cᵢ = 2108 J/kg.°C
Latent heat of ice = L = 334000 J/kg
Specific heat capacity of water = C = 4186 J/kg.°C
Heat gained by ice in taking the total temperature to 40°C = mCᵢ ΔT + mL + mC ΔT = m(2108)(0 - (-20)) + m(334000) + m(4186)(40 - 0) = 42160m + 334000m + 167440m = 543600 m
Heat lost by water = mC ΔT = 0.25 (4186)(75 - 40) = 36627.5 J
543600 m = 36627.5
m = 0.0674 kg = 67.4 g of ice.
