The Earth spins on its axis and also orbits around the Sun.
For this problem use the following constants.
Mass of the Earth: 5.97 × 10^24 kg (assume a uniform mass distribution)
Radius of the Earth: 6371 km
Distance of Earth from Sun: 149,600,000 km

What is the rotational kinetic energy of the Earth due to its orbit around the Sun, in joules?

Which of the following is not am example of a polymer? protein nylon kevlar concreta

How does the kinetic energy of a charge change as the charge moves under the effect of an electric field from higher potential to lower potential? a.the kinetic energy increases.b.the kinetic energy decreases.c.the kinetic energy remains the same.d.the kinetic energy is always zero.

Boxing gloves are padded to lessen the force of a blow. (a) calculate the force exerted by a boxing glove on an opponent’s face, if the glove and face compress 7.50 cm during a blow in which the 7.00-kg arm and glove are brought to rest from an initial speed of 10.0 m/s. (b) calculate the force exerted by an identical blow in the gory old days when no gloves were used and the knuckles and face would compress only 2.00 cm. (c) discuss the magnitude of the force with glove on. does it seem high enough to cause damage even though it is lower than the force with no glove?
