7 0

Kepler's three laws of planetary motion can be stated as follows: (1) All planets move about the Sun in elliptical orbits, having the Sun as one of the foci. (2) A radius vector joining any planet to the Sun sweeps out equal areas in equal lengths of time.

Kepler's three laws of planetary motion are:

The 1st law is that planets move around the Sun in elliptical orbits. An ellipse is a shape that resembles a flattened circle. The 2nd law is the speed of the planet increases as it nears the sun and decreases as it recedes from the sun. The 3rd law is the square of the orbital period of a planet is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its orbit.

Ratio of acceleration due to grabity and universal gravitational constant

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s^2

universal gravitational constant= 6.67×10 ^_11 nm^2 kg_2

now, ratio=9.8/6.67×10^_11.

A 75.0 kg stunt man jumps from a balcony and falls 24.0

Anika [276]

Answer:

The force that acts on the man equals 15354.75 newtons.

Explanation:

After falling through a distance of 24.0 meters the speed of the stunt man upon hitting the mattress can be obtained using third equation of kinematics as

$v^{2}=u^{2}+2gh\\\\\therefore v=\sqrt{2gh}\\\\v=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 24}\\\\v=21.7m/s$ ( u=0 since the man falls from rest)

Now since the man is decelerated through a distance of 1.15 meters thus the acceleration produced can be obtained from third equation of kinematics as

$v^{2}=u^{2}+2as\\\\0=u^{2}=2as\\\\a=\frac{-u^{2}}{2s}\\\\a=-\frac{(21.7^{2}}{2\times 1.15}=-204.73m/s^{2}$

Now by newton's second law the force that produced deceleration of the calculated magnitude is obtained as

$F=mass\times acceleration\\\\F=75.0\times -204.73=-15354.75Newtons$

The negative sign indicates that the direction of force is opposite of motion.

State the ohm's law in words

Anton [14]

Explanation:

Ohm's law states that the voltage or potential difference between two points is directly proportional to the current or electricity passing through the resistance, and directly proportional to the resistance of the circuit. The formula for Ohm's law is V=IR.

One way to monitor global warming is to measure the average temperature of the ocean. Researchers are doing this by measuring th

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

0.07°C

Explanation:

solution:

the speed of a sound in water is:

v(T)=1480+4(T-4°C)

at 4°C the travel time is:

t(4◦C) = ( 7600 × 103 m ) / (1480 m/s) = 5202.7 s

5°C, the travel time is:

t(5◦C) = ( 7600 × 103 m ) / (1484 m/s) = 5188.7 s

one degree C corresponds to a ∆t of 14 s so temperature difference is:

ΔT=1 s/14 s=0.07◦C
