Calculate the centripetal force exerted on the earth by the sun. assume that the period of revolution for the earth is 365.25 days

F = 3.55 x 10²² N

Explanation:

average distance of sun from earth = 1.5 × 10⁸ km

mass of earth = 6 x 10²⁴ kg

time = 365.25 days

distance = 2 π r

distance = 2 π x 1.5 x 10¹¹ m

              = 3 π x 10¹¹ m

   v = 2.98 x 10⁴ m/s

we know centripetal force

F = 3.55 x 10²² N

hi there!

your question asks at which segment does freezing occur.

since we're talking about water, the freezing point of water will be 32 degrees fahrenheit or below.

hope this ! ~

we need to know the time interval during which the force acts. impulse of force = momentum change
