Which statement is true about a planet’s orbital motion?
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

Orbital motion results when the object’s forward motion is balanced by a second object’s gravitational pull.

Explanation:

The gravitational force is responsible for the orbital motion of the planet, satellite, artificial satellite, and other heavenly bodies in outer space.

When an object is applied with a velocity that is equal to the velocity of the orbit at that location, the body continues to move forward. And, this motion is balanced by the gravitational pull of the second object.

The orbiting body experience a centripetal force that is equal to the gravitational force of the second object towards the body.

The velocity of the orbit is given by the relation,

                                    V = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{R + h} }

Where

                   V - velocity of the orbit at a height h from the surface

                    R - Radius of the second object

                    G - Gravitational constant

                    h - height from the surface

The body will be in orbital motion when its kinetic motion is balanced by gravitational force.

                         1/2 mV^{2} = GMm/R

Hence, the orbital motion results when the object’s forward motion is balanced by a second object’s gravitational pull.

Whats the Independent and Dependent Variables
astra-53 [7]
The independent variable is the type of fuel used and the dependent variable is the speed of the race car. The independent variable could be changed through the experimental process to see its relation with the dependent variable<span>. The dependent variable is the result of the independent variable changes.</span>

Brrunno [24]

hi, so the material that would normally form mineral crystals does not have time to form a crystalline structure because of very rapid cooling after volcanically erupting into the air or onto the surface. Obsidian is a volcanic glass.

Two polarizing sheets have their transmission axes crossed so that no light is transmitted. A third sheet is inserted so that it
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

a)    I= I₀ (cos²θ - cos⁴θ)    b) 75.5º

Explanation:

a) For this exercise we must use Malus's law

         I = I₀ cos² θ

where tea is the angle between the two polarizers.

We apply this expression to our case

* Polarizer 1 suppose that it is vertical and polarizer 2 (intermediate) is at an angle θ with respect to the vertical

         I₁ = I₀ cos² θ

* We analyze for the polarity 2 and the last polarizer 3 which indicate that it must be at 90º from the first one, therefore it must be horizontal.

The angle of polarizers 2 and 3 is θ' measured from the horizontal, if we measure with respect to the vertical

              θ₂ = 90- θ’ = θ

fiate that in the exercise we must take a reference system and measure everything with respect to this system.

          I = I₁ cos² θ'

       

we substitute

         I = (I₀ cos² tea) cos² (θ - 90)

        cos (θ -90) = cos θ cos 90 + sin θ sin 90 = sin θ

         I = Io cos² θ sin² θ

        1= cos²θ+ sin²θ

       sin²θ = 1 - cos²θ

        I= I₀ (cos²θ - cos⁴θ)

b) to find when the intensity is maximum,

we can use that we have an extreme point when the drift is zero

          \frac{dI}{d \theta} = 0

          \frac{dI}{d \theta}= Io (2 cos θ - 4 cos³θ) = 0

whereby

            cos θ - 2 cos³ θ = 0

            cos θ ( 1 - 2 cos² θ) = 0  

The zeros of this function are in

           θ = 90º

           1-2cos²θ =0       cos θ = 0.25  θ =  75.5º

Let's analyze this two results for the angle of 90º the intnesidd is zero with respect to the first polarizer, so it is not an acceptable solution.

Consequently, the angle that allows the maximum intensity to pass is 75.5º
