It is always a good idea to get some sense of the "size" of units. For example, the mass of an apple is about 100 g , whereas a

bicycle is about a hundred times more massive at around 10 kg . Estimate the mass of the objects.

Answer and Explanation:

The estimation of the mass of the objects is as follows

Given that

The mass of an apple is about 100 g

Just like that, we do some estimation of different objects

A dime is around 1 g

A smartphone is about 100 g

An adult male is approx 100 kg

A college physics textbook is around 1 kg

A ripe banana is around 100 g

A small car is around 1,000 kg

Kepler deduced this law of motion from observations of Mars. What information confirms his conclusion that the orbit of Mars is
Leno4ka [110]

Kepler noticed an imaginary line drawn from a planet to the Sun and this line swept out an equal area of space in equal times, If we then draw a triangle out from the Sun to a planet’s position at one point in time, it is notice that the area doesn't change even after the planet has left the original position say like after 2 to 3days or 2hours. So to have same area of triangle means that the the planet move faster when that are closer to the sun and slowly when they are far from the sun.

This led to Kepler's law of orbital motion.

First Law: Planetary orbits are elliptical with the sun at a focus.

Second Law: The radius vector from the sun to a planet sweeps equal areas in equal times.

Third Law: The ratio of the square of the period of revolution and the cube of the ellipse semi-major axis is the same for all planets.

It is this Kepler's law that makes Newton to come up with his own laws on how planet moves the way they do.

The vibrations along a transverse wave move in a direction _________.
GrogVix [38]

Answer: perpendicular to it oscillations.

Explanation: A transverse wave is a wave whose oscillations is perpendicular to the direction of the wave.

By perpendicular, we mean that the wave is oscillating on the vertical axis (y) of a Cartesian plane and the vibration is along the horizontal axis (x) of the plane.

Examples of transverse waves includes wave in a string, water wave and light.

Let us take a wave in a string for example, you tie one end of a string to a fixed point and the other end is free with you holding it.

If you move the rope vertically ( that's up and down) you will notice a kind of wave traveling away from you ( horizontally) to the fixed point.

Since the oscillations is perpendicular to the direction of wave, it is a transverse wave
