What occurs when the velocity of Earth is doubled?
a. The orbit of Earth around the Sun becomes smaller
c. The Earth escapes the Sun
b. The orbit of Earth does not change
d. The orbit becomes more elliptical


couldnt comment on anyone elses/add answers so to anyone looking for it, THE ANSWER IS C - THE EARTH ESCAPES THE SUN!!!!

Answers

Answer 1

When the velocity of Earth is doubled, the orbit of Earth around the Sun becomes smaller ( A ).

v = √ G M / r

v = Orbital velocity

G = Gravitational constant

M = Mass of the celestial body

r = Radius of the celestial body

Rearranging for r,

√ r = √ ( G M ) / v

Squaring on both sides,

r = G M / v²

If the velocity of Earth is doubled,

v' = 2v

r' = G M / v'²

r' = G M / ( 2 v )²

r' = G M / 4 v²

r' = r / 4

So the radius of orbit of Earth becomes one-fourth its initial radius.

Therefore, when the velocity of Earth is doubled, the orbit of Earth around the Sun becomes smaller ( A ).

Answers

A graph type called a velocity vs. time graph compares how velocity changes over time. This kind of graph can be used to determine an object's displacement, acceleration, and velocity as well as its direction of motion.

While speed and velocity are similar, they are not the same. Velocity is a vector quantity with direction. There is a magnitude, a direction, and units for every vector quantity. The change in displacement, another vector, over time is referred to as velocity. Speed is a scalar quantity with no direction that calculates how quickly something moves. By dividing the distance by the time, one may calculate speed.

As a result, in a graph of speed vs time, the slope corresponds to acceleration, whereas the area under the curve corresponds to distance rather than displacement.

Answers

The car must be travelling at a speed of 28.21 m / s in order to land 90 m from the base of a 50 m high cliff.

According to Equations of motion,

s = ut + 1 / 2 at²

A train changes it’s speed from 3m/s to 17m/s in 2.0 seconds calculate its acceleration.

Answers

Answer: acceleration of the train = 7 m/s^2

Explanation: We are going to use the formula for acceleration,

acceleration of a moving body is the change in speed per unit of time, hence the formula for finding acceleration is

a = (v-u)/t
here, a = acceleration
         v = final speed
         u = initial speed
         t = total time taken

here (v-u) will give the change in velocity since it's the difference between the final and initial velocity of the train

Given, v = 17 m/s

           u = 3 m/s

            t = 2 s

∴ a = (17-3)/2

A soccer ball is kicked with a velocity of 15.7 at an 51.6 degree angle. How far away will the ball land back on the ground?

Answers

The ball land back on the ground at the distance of 37.75 meters from the point it was kicked after completing the projectile.

What is projectile?

The term "projectile" refers to an item that is pushed by the application of an external force, then moves freely while being influenced by gravity and air resistance. Even though everything that travels through space is a projectile, they are widely used in both sports and conflict (for example, a thrown baseball, kicked football, fired bullet, shot arrow, stone released from catapult)

the ball is kicked at the speed of 15.7 m/s with degree 51.6° angle.

Vertical velocity = 15.7 sin51.6 = 15.7(0.783) = 12.3 m/s

Horizontal velocity = 15.7 cos51.6 = 15.7(0.962) = 15.1 m/s

Lets calculate the time of flight:

v = u + at

Here, v = final vertical velocity, a = gravitational acceleration, u = initial vertical velocity, t = time

putting the values

0 = 12.3 + 9.8(t)

t = -1.25 s

times cant be negative so we consider it as 1.25 seconds

This is half time, IN the compete projectile the ball will reach at the top and then again come to land taking the same time. so,

T = 2t = 2(1.25) = 2.5 seconds

Calculating the range:

Distance = speed(time)

Speed = Horizontal velocity = 15.1 m/s

time = 2.5 s

putting the values

Distance = 15.1(2.5) = 37.75 m

Therefore, the ball land back on the ground at the distance of 37.75 after full projectile.

Motion Under Gravity

Motion of any object under gravity is the vertical motion of the object under the influence of acceleration due to gravity.

Given that a ball is projected with 40 m/s vertically upward.

A. the total time of flight of the ball will be T = 2t

At maximum height, v = 0.

v = u - gt

0 = 40 - 9.8t

9.8t = 40

t = 40 / 9.8

t = 4.08 s

T = 2 × 4.08

T = 8.16 s

B. the maximum height H can be found by using the formula

v² = u² - 2gH

At maximum height, v = 0

0 = u² - 2 × 9.8 × H

40² = 19.6H

H = 1600/19.6

H = 81.6 m

C. the velocity at t = 5s will be v

v = u - gt

v = 40 - 9.8 × 5

v = 40 - 49

v = - 9 m/s

That is, 9 m/s in the opposite direction ( coming downward )

Answers

The relative velocity with respect to the dock is 6.5j + 1.1 i m/s m/s.

We need to know about relative velocity to solve this problem. The relative velocity depends on the object and observer velocity. It can be written as

v = vo ± v'

where v is relative velocity, vo is object velocity and v' is observer velocity.

From the question above, we know that

vo = 6.5 j m/s

v' = 1.1 i m/s

The velocity will be added each other because the direction of the observer is different from the object.

v = vo + v'

v = 6.5j + 1.1 i

What is gravitational force?

The gravitational force is the force of attraction between all masses in the universe; especially the attraction of the earth's mass for bodies near its surface. gravitational force also causes objects to fall.

The mathematical expression for the gravitational force when everything is at normal is given by:

F₁ = G(m₁m₂) / r²

When the distrance is tripled, the expression will be:

F₂ = G(m₁m₂) / 3r²

F₂ = G(m₁m₂) / 9r² = 1/9F₁

The new force gets reduced to 9th fraction of the actual force. now we want the new and actual force to be equal to:

F₂ = F₁/9

9F₂ = F₁

Therefore the mass of one of the body should be increased by 9 times.

"On the midrib of the long palm-leaf they skewer a number of the oily nuts of the candle-nut-tree and light the upper one." As the nuts burn off, one after another, they mark the passage of equal portions of time. Here is a clock that can be used at night as well as in the daytime, in the house as well as out of doors. Mr. Walter Hough tells us that Chinese messengers who have but a short period to sleep place a lighted piece of joss-stick between their toes when they go to bed. The burning stick serves both as a timepiece and as an alarm-clock.What is the central idea of the last paragraph? Burning things is a great way to tell time. Fire-clocks are dangerous because they can burn you. There have been multiple types of fire-clocks to tell time. Sundials are a means of observing shadows, not an invention.

The inner diameter of a small test-tube Can be measured accurately using You are asked to consult for the city's research hospital, where a group of doctors is investigating the bombardment of cancer tumors with high-energy ions. The ions are fired directly toward the center of the tumor at speeds of 5. 5 106m/s. To cover the entire tumor area, the ions are deflected sideways by passing them between two charged metal plates that accelerate the ions perpendicular to the direction of their initial motion. The acceleration region is 5. 0 cm long, and the ends of the acceleration plates are 1. 5 m from the patient. What sideways acceleration is required to deflect an ion 2. 0 cm to one side?Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units A coffee company wants a new flavor of Cajun coffee.
