A_ describes the shape of a planets orbital path

Taylor's experiment: 1. accurately measured the speed of light 2. locked together the phases of two light sources so that the interference pattern would not shift 3. showed that man's reaction time was much slower than the speed of light 4. showed that individual photons have wave characteristics

Mass (kg) force (n) 5 25 10 50 15 75 20 100 a student was trying to find the relationship between mass and force. he placed four different masses on a table and pulled them using a spring scale. the table shows the different masses used in the experiment and the force required to pull each mass. the student concluded that more force was required to pull heavier objects. what comment would you make regarding his conclusion? a) no clear relation can be observed between mass and force from the data. b) there is a direct proportion between the mass and force listed in the table. c) gravity should have been taken into account while performing the experiment. d) there is an inverse proportion between the mass and force listed in the table.

Alarge cruise ship of mass 7.00 ✕ 107 kg has a speed of 11.6 m/s at some instant. (a) what is the ship's kinetic energy at this time? (b) how much work is required to stop it? (give the work done on the ship. include the sign of the value in your answer.) (c) what is the magnitude of the constant force required to stop it as it undergoes a displacement of 3.00 km?
