Which statement explains how planets move in orbit as supported by Newton’s first law of motion? Planets can change the direction of their own orbital path.
Planets can change orbits due to their inertia.
Planets in motion will have a constant speed unless acted on by an outside force.
Planets with a greater mass will orbit more quickly than smaller planets.

The electric field direction is defined by the direction of the force felt by (select one of the following answers): 1. a negative charge. 2. a positive charge. 3. both positive and negative charges.

Four point charges each having charge q are located at the corners of a square having sides of length a. find symbolic expressions for the following. (a) the total electric potential at the center of the square due to the four charges (use any variable or symbol stated above along with the following as necessary: ke.) vtotal= (b) the work required to bring a fifth charge p from infinity to the center of the square (use any variable or symbol stated above along with the following as necessary: w=

Part of a control linkage for an airplane consists of a rigid member cb and a flexible cable ab. if a force is applied to the end b of the member and causes it to rotate by θ = 0.5°, determine the normal strain in the cable. originally the cable is unstretched.
