Inertia is that quantity which depends solely upon mass. The more mass, the more inertia. Momentum is another quantity in Physics which depends on both mass and speed.

The six statements below represent Newton's three laws of motion and Kepler's three laws of planetary motion. Match each stateme
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

1. Force = mass x acceleration - Newton

2. A planet moves faster in the part of its orbit nearer the Sun and slower when farther from the Sun, sweeping out  equal areas in equal times - Kepler

3. For any force, there is an equal and opposite reaction force - Newton .

4. An object moves at constant velocity if there is no net force acting upon it - Newton

5. The orbit of each planet about the Sun is an ellipse with the Sun at one focus  - Kepler.

6. More distant planets orbit the Sun at slower average speeds, obeying the precise mathematical relationship p2-a3 - Kepler.

Explanation:

The three laws of planetary motion formulated by Johannes Kepler or Kepler's laws of planetary motion:

  1. The first law states that the planets move around the Sun in an elliptical orbit with the Sun at one of the foci.
  2. The second law states that the line segment joining a planet to the Sun sweeps out equal areas in equal time.
  3. The third law states that the square of the orbital period (p) of a planet is directly proportional to the cube of the mean distance (a) from the Sun (or semi-major axis of its orbit) i.e., p² is proportional to a³.

The three laws of motion formulated by Sir Isaac Newton or Newton's laws of motion:

  1. The first law, also known as the law of inertia states that an object at rest or moves at a constant velocity will remain at rest or keep moving at a constant velocity unless it is acted upon by a force.
  2. The second law states that the total force (F) applied on an object is directly related to the acceleration (a) of that object produced by the applied force and the mass (m) of the object, i.e., F = ma (assuming the mass m is constant).
  3. The third law, also known as the law of action and reaction states that when an object exerts a force on another object, then the latter exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the former object i.e., for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. The example includes the recoiling of a gun when it fires a bullet forward.

Say I have a series circuit with 20v and four 65 ohm resistors, what is the current in each resistor?
Komok [63]
Data:

E = 20 V
R_{1} = 65\Omega
R_{2} = 65\Omega
R_{3} = 65\Omega
R_{4} = 65\Omega

<span>Now that we have all the values ​​we need properly identified, simply calculate the equivalent total resistance of the circuit and the intensity of the total electric current using the Ohm's Law:

</span>R_{T} =  R_{1} + R_{2} + R_{3} + R_{4}
R_{T} = 65 + 65 + 65+ 65
R_{T} = 260\Omega

<span>Like this:
</span>
I_{T} =  \frac{E}{ R_{T} }

I_{T} = \frac{20}{ 260 }
I_{T} = 0,076923076...

\boxed{\boxed{I_{T} \approx 0,07A}} 
Answer:
<span>The intensity of the total electric current 
</span>\boxed{\boxed{I_{T} \approx 0,07A}} 

P.S:. Since the association is in series, the current of 0.07A is the same for all resistors.

If an amount of heat Q is needed to increase the temperature of a solid metal sphere of diameter D from 4°C to 7°C, the amount o
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Q = c M ΔT      where c is the heat capacity and M the mass present

Q2 / Q1 = M2 / M1    since the other factors are the same

M = ρ V     where ρ is the density

M = ρ Π (d / 2)^2           where d is the diameter of the sphere

M2 / M1 = (2 D/2)^2 / (D/2)^2 = 4

It will take 4Q heat to heat the second sphere

A 1200 kg car passes traffic light at a velocity of 10.2 m/s to the north and accelerates at a rate of 2.45 m/s^2. Calculate the
kumpel [21]

The car’s momentum after 4.21s is 24617.4 kgm/s

<h3>Newton's Second Law of Motion.</h3>

Newton's second law state that, the rate of change of momentum, is directly proportional to the applied force.

Given that a 1200 kg car passes traffic light at a velocity of 10.2 m/s to the north and accelerates at a rate of 2.45 m/s^2. To calculate the car’s momentum after 4.21 s, Let us first list all the parameters involved.

  • Velocity u = 10.2 m/s
  • Acceleration a =  2.45 m/s²
  • Mass m = 1200Kg
  • Time t = 4.21 s

From Newton's second law,

F = (mv - mu) / t

ma = (mv - mu) / t

Substitute all the parameters into the formula above.

1200 × 2.45 = ( mv - 1200 × 10.2 ) / 4.21

2940 = ( mv - 12240 ) / 4.21

Cross multiply

12377.4 = mv - 12240

Make mv the subject of the formula

mv = 12377.4 + 12240

mv = 24617.4 kgm/s

Therefore, the car’s momentum after 4.21s is 24617.4 kgm/s
