The velocity vector of the planet points toward the center of the circle is the following is true about a planet orbiting a star in uniform circular motion.
A. The velocity vector of the planet points toward the center of the circle.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Motion of the planet around the star is mentioned to be uniform and around a circular path. Objects in uniform circular motion motion has constant angular speed but the velocity of the object will not remain constant. Since the planet is in circular motion the direction of velocity vector at a particular point is tangential to the circular path at that particular point.
Thus at every point, the direction of velocity vector changes and this means the velocity is never constant. The objects in uniform circular motion has centripetal acceleration which means that velocity vector of the planet points toward the center of the circle.
Incomplete question as the mass of baseball is missing.I have assume 0.2kg mass of baseball.So complete question is:
A baseball has mass 0.2 kg.If the velocity of a pitched ball has a magnitude of 44.5 m/sm/s and the batted ball's velocity is 55.5 m/sm/s in the opposite direction, find the magnitude of the change in momentum of the ball and of the impulse applied to it by the bat.
Answer:
ΔP=20 kg.m/s
Explanation:
Given data
Mass m=0.2 kg
Initial speed Vi=-44.5m/s
Final speed Vf=55.5 m/s
Required
Change in momentum ΔP
Solution
First we take the batted balls velocity as the final velocity and its direction is the positive direction and we take the pitched balls velocity as the initial velocity and so its direction will be negative direction.So we have:
Now we need to find the initial momentum
So
Substitute the given values
Now for final momentum
So the change in momentum is given as:
ΔP=P₂-P₁
![=[(11.1kg.m/s)-(-8.9kg.m/s)]\\=20kg.m/s](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%3D%5B%2811.1kg.m%2Fs%29-%28-8.9kg.m%2Fs%29%5D%5C%5C%3D20kg.m%2Fs)
ΔP=20 kg.m/s
By Boyle's law:
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
300*75 = P<span>₂*50
</span>P<span>₂*50= 300*75
</span>
P<span>₂ = 300*75/50 = 450
</span>
P<span>₂ = 450 kiloPascals.
The pressure has increased as a result of compression of gas.
Boyle's Law supports this observation.</span>
Answer:
This galaxy belongs to the elliptical galaxy category. This is because it does not have spiral arms.
