What is Kepler’s first law?

Physics
2 answers:
umka21 [38]2 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

Kepler 's first law - sometimes referred to as the law of ellipses - explains that planets are orbiting the sun in a path described as an ellipse. An ellipse can easily be constructed using a pencil, two tacks, a string, a sheet of paper and a piece of cardboard. Tack the sheet of paper to the cardboard using the two tacks.

Answer:

Kepler's First Law: each planet's orbit about the Sun is an ellipse. The Sun's center is always located at one focus of the orbital ellipse. The Sun is at one focus. The planet follows the ellipse in its orbit, meaning that the planet to Sun distance is constantly changing as the planet goes around its orbit.

Answer:

1) D, 2) D, 3) B, 4) B, 5) C

Explanation:

You are asked to select the correct answer

1)  The conservation of energy is one of the most important principles of physics that allows solving countless problems in life.

the correct answer is D

2) when a body falls, the gravitational potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy and both are transformed into thermal energy

the correct answer is D

3) When the gravitational potential energy is maximum, the kinetic energy is minimum and when the kinetic energy is maximum, the gravitational energy is minimum.

Correct answer B

4) speed is defined by

         v = x / t

so the correct answer is B in the SI system

5) when we repeat a measurement several times, the random or statistical errors decrease, therefore the confidence of the measurement increases.

The correct answer is C

A drowsy cat spots a flowerpot that sails first up and then down past an open window. the pot was in view for a total of 0.49 s,
Alika [10]

For this case, let's assume that the pot spends exactly half of its time going up, and half going down, i.e. it is visible upward for 0.245 s and downward for 0.245 s. Let us take the bottom of the window to be zero on a vertical axis pointing upward. All calculations will be made in reference to this coordinate system. <span>

An initial condition has been supplied by the problem: 

s=1.80m when t=0.245s 

<span>This means that it takes the pot 0.245 seconds to travel upward 1.8m. Knowing that the gravitational acceleration acts downward constantly at 9.81m/s^2, and based on this information we can use the formula:

s=(v)(t)+(1/2)(a)(t^2) 

to solve for v, the initial velocity of the pot as it enters the cat's view through the window. Substituting and solving (note that gravitational acceleration is negative since this is opposite our coordinate orientation): 

(1.8m)=(v)(0.245s)+(1/2)(-9.81m/s^2)(0.245s)^2 

v=8.549m/s 

<span>Now we know the initial velocity of the pot right when it enters the view of the window. We know that at the apex of its flight, the pot's velocity will be v=0, and using this piece of information we can use the kinematic equation:

(v final)=(v initial)+(a)(t) 

to solve for the time it will take for the pot to reach the apex of its flight. Because (v final)=0, this equation will look like 

0=(v)+(a)(t) 

Substituting and solving for t: 

0=(8.549m/s)+(-9.81m/s^2)(t) 

t=0.8714s 

<span>Using this information and the kinematic equation we can find the total height of the pot’s flight:

s=(v)(t)+(1/2)(a)(t^2) </span></span></span></span>

s=8.549m/s (0.8714s)-0.5(9.81m/s^2)(0.8714s)^2

s=3.725m<span>

This distance is measured from the bottom of the window, and so we will need to subtract 1.80m from it to find the distance from the top of the window: 

3.725m – 1.8m=1.925m</span>

 

Answer:

<span>1.925m</span>

Identify where the solid would be found after distillation is complete.
dimaraw [331]

Bottom of the distillation flask

Explanation:

The solid in the mixture to be separate would be found at the bottom of the distillation flask.

Distillation is a separation technique for differentiating the components of mixtures based on the differences in their boiling points.

  • Distillation is used to recover solvents from solution.
  • The solutes are then left behind in the flask as the solvent boils out as vapor.
  • The solution is boiled in a distillation flask to vaporize the solvent.
  • The vapor is made to condense back into liquid by means of a condenser.
  • The pure liquid called distillate is collected in the receiver.
  • The solute which is the solid remains in the distillation flask
