Answer: The comet's average distance from the sun is 17.6AU
Explanation:
From Kepler's 3rd Law, P^2=a^3
Where P is period in years
and a is length of semi-major axis or the average distance of the comet to the sun.
Given the orbital period to be 74 years
74^2 =a^3
5476 = a^3
Cube root of 5476 =a
17.626 = a
Approximately a= 17.6 AU
Answer:
acceleration, a = 9.8 m/s²
Explanation:
'A ball is dropped from the top of a building' indicates that the initial velocity of the ball is zero.
u = 0 m/s
After 2 seconds, velocity of the ball is 19.6 m/s.
t = 2s, v = 19.6 m/s
Using
v = u + at
19.6 = 0 + 2a
a = 9.8 m/s²

•snow
•high tide/low tide
•thunder/lightning storms
T o a stationary observer, a man jogs east at 2.5 m/s and a woman jogs west at 1.5 m/s. from the woman's frame of reference, what is the man's velocity? it is 4m/s east
