Document Summary
The higher the photon energy, the shorter its wavelength. Potential energy is illustrated when you stand on a ladder. At any given time, there are two high tides on earth. When i drive my car at 30 miles per hour, it has 9 times as much kinetic energy than it does at 10 miles per hour. The gravitational force between two objects increases by a factor of four if the distance between them is reduced by one-half. Newton"s version of kepler"s third law allows us to calculate the mass of. Saturn from orbital characteristics of it"s moon titan because knowing. Titan"s period and semi-major axis allows us to calculate saturn"s mass. An object needs a speed of 11 km/sec to escape earth. Suppose a comet has a very eccentric orbit that brings it quite close to the. Sun at closest approach (perihelion) and beyond mars when furthest from the sun (aphelion), but has an average distance of 1 au.
