Why do astronomers believe that triton is a captured moon?

Physics
1 answer:
Dafna11 [192]2 years ago
6 0

Answer: Accoding to research "Triton is unique among all the large moons in the solar system because it orbits Neptune in a direction opposite to the planet's rotation (a "retrograde" orbit). It is unlikely to have formed in this configuration and was probably captured from elsewhere."

Answer:

1.65\times {-3} \text { s}

Explanation:

Current is the rate of flow of charge.

I=\dfrac{Q}{t}

t = \dfrac{Q}{I}

t = \dfrac{30.0}{18.2\times10^3} =1.65\times {0-3} = 1.65\times {-3} \text { s}

A car is on a circular off ramp of an interstate and is traveling at exactly 25 mph around the curve. Does the car have velocity
netineya [11]

Answer:

The car has velocity and acceleration but is not decelerating

Explanation:

Since the car is traveling at 25 mph around the curve, it has a tangential velocity. This tangential velocity is constantly changing in direction (so the car could adapt to the curve and not moving forward in a straight line), there should be a centripetal acceleration in play here. This acceleration does not slow down the car so it's not decelerating.
