The characteristics of the velocity vector used to find the results for the direction of acceleration and velocity are:

  • Acceleration is towards the center of the circle
  • The velocity is tangent to the circle counterclockwise.

Newton's Second Law establishes a relationship between force, mass and acceleration of bodies.

<h3>Centripetal acceleration. </h3>

In the case of circular motion there is a constant change in the direction of the velocity vector, even when its module remains constant, this change in direction points towards the center of the circle, so that the module is constant.

They indicate that the satellite is moving counterclockwise, therefore the speed must go to the left (counterclockwise) tangential to the circle.

In conclusion using the characteristics of the velocity vector we can find the results for the direction of acceleration and velocity are:

  • Acceleration is towards the center of the circle
  • The velocity is tangent to the circle counterclockwise.

What are the characteristics of high energy waves?
sladkih [1.3K]
<span>The relationship between wavelength, frequency and energy of Electromagnetic Radiation is given by E = hf = hc/lamba -------(1) So from (1) there's a linear relationship between E and f. The higher the frequency, f, the higher the energy E. Also from (1) it is obvious that the lower the wavelength, lambda, the higher the energy, E. This means the answer is D.</span>

All of the following would be questions that could be scientifically investigated except:
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

"What is the best advice a parent can give a child?"

Explanation:

The other answers have one clear response. Ex: Orange popsicles melt faster than grape popsicles. That would be a fact.

But parental advice can vary, depending on your opinion. I may say that all parents must teach their children not to talk to strangers, while someone else may say that parents should advice their kids to treat everyone fairly. Nothing can be proven as the only appropriate response.

Hope this helps!

) By observing that the centripetal acceleration of the Moon around the Earth is ac = 2.7 × 10-3 m/s2, what is the gravitatonal
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

G = 6,786 10⁻¹¹ m³ / s² kg

Explanation:

The law of universal gravitation is

         F = G m M/ r²

Where G is the gravitational constant, m and M are the masses of the bodies and r is the distance from their centers

Let's use Newton's second law

         F = m a

The acceleration is centripetal

          a = a_{c}  

We replace

         G m M / r² = m  a_{c}  

         G =  a_{c}   r² / M

Let's replace and calculate

         G = 2.7 10⁻³ (3.88 10⁸)² / 5.99 10²⁴

         G = 6,786 10⁻¹¹ m³ / s² kg

Let's perform a dimensional analysis

[N m²/kg²] = [kg m/s²   m² / kg²] = [m³ / s² kg]
