Kepler noticed an imaginary line drawn from a planet to the Sun and this line swept out an equal area of space in equal times, If we then draw a triangle out from the Sun to a planet’s position at one point in time, it is notice that the area doesn't change even after the planet has left the original position say like after 2 to 3days or 2hours. So to have same area of triangle means that the the planet move faster when that are closer to the sun and slowly when they are far from the sun.
This led to Kepler's law of orbital motion.
First Law: Planetary orbits are elliptical with the sun at a focus.
Second Law: The radius vector from the sun to a planet sweeps equal areas in equal times.
Third Law: The ratio of the square of the period of revolution and the cube of the ellipse semi-major axis is the same for all planets.
It is this Kepler's law that makes Newton to come up with his own laws on how planet moves the way they do.
Explanation:
Given that,
Initial speed of a car, u = 60 km/h = 16.67 m/s
Acceleration, a = 2m/s²
Final speed, v = 120 km/h = 33.33 m/s
We need to find the distance traveled and the time taken to make the distance.
acceleration = rate of change of velocity
let the distance be d.
Hence, the distance traveled and the time taken to make the distance is 208.25 m and 8.33 seconds respectively.
Answer:
M au = Fs - M g au = upwards acceleration; Fs = scale reading
Fs = M (au + g) scalar quantities where g is positive downwards and au is positive upwards - Fs is the net force acting on the person
If the acceleration is zero Fs = M g and the scale reads the persons weight
If the elevator is decelerating then au is negative and the scale reading Fs = (g - au) M and the scale reading is less than the weight of the person
Answer:
The distance of stars and the earth can be averagely measured by using the knowledge of geometry to estimate the stellar parallax angle(p).
From the equation below, the stars distances can be calculated.
D = 1/p
Distance = 1/(parallax angle)
Stellar parallax can be used to determine the distance of stars from an observer, on the surface of the earth due to the motion of the observer. It is the relative or apparent angular displacement of the star, due to the displacement of the observer.
Explanation:
Parallax is the observed apparent change in the position of an object resulting from a change in the position of the observer. Specifically, in the case of astronomy it refers to the apparent displacement of a nearby star as seen from an observer on Earth.
The parallax of an object can be used to approximate the distance to an object using the formula:
D = 1/p
Where p is the parallax angle observed using geometry and D is the actual distance measured in parsecs. A parsec is defined as the distance at which an object has a parallax of 1 arcsecond. This distance is approximately 3.26 light years
I believe its the law of inertia
