What explains the motion of the sun?
The Earth's rotation causes the Sun to rise in the east and set in the west every day.
Which of the following describes orbital motion of these bodies in your solar system?
kinetic energy
What explains why the sun governs the motion of all planets in your system?
The Sun's gravity pulls the planets in and makes them orbit it. It's just like how the Eath's gravity makes the Moon orbit the Earth, only on a larger scale.
Who wrote the theory for the gravitational laws of planetary motion?
There are numerous theories of planetary motion. Ptolemaeus (earth in the centre), Copernicus (the sun in the centre, planets orbit around it), Kepler (planet orbits are ellipses) all wrote such theories.
What is responsible for the patterns of motion of all celestial objects?
Gravity for the real motion, the Earth's rotation for the apparent motion.
Which of the following best explains why the profit motion often leads to efficiency and innovation?
The competition to make profit drives producers to eliminate waste
The first law of motion explains that forces are required to initiate motion for objects at?
motion
What branch of science explains the motion of airplanes?
thermodynamics
What branch of science that explains the motion of airplanes in flight?
aerodynamics
Which law of motion explains how a rocket is launched?
newton's third law
Which of newton's law of motion is also called the law of inertia.It explains what?
Newton's first law of motion is called the law of inertia. It explains that changes in motion (acceleration) require an unbalanced force. It states that a body at rest remains at rest and a body in motion remains in motion in a straight line at a constant velocity unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
Which law of motion explains how rockets are launched into space?
Newton's third law
What explains the motion of micro particles?
Brownian motion. This is random motion of micro particles resultimg from collisions between the particle in question and other particles in the surrounding medium.
Which law of motion explains why you may lean sideways in a car if the driver turns a corner too quickly?
first law of motion
What does friction oppose?
Friction opposes motion or, more correctly, relative motion between two bodies in contact.Motion.
Why is the following is the energy of motion?
Energy of motion is called "kinetic energy".
How do equations of motion change for an object moving in uniform motion?
The "equations of motion" are statements that describe motion. They would not be of much use if the very thing they're used to describe caused them to change. I'll say they don't.
