Vibration of an object about an equilibrium point is called simple harmonic motion when the restoring force is
proportional to:
a. a spring constant. b. displacement. c. time. d. mass

Aplanet of mass m 6.75 x 1024 kg is orbiting in a circular path a star of mass m 2.75 x 1029 kg. the radius of the orbit is r 8.05 x107 km. what is the orbital period (in earth days) of the planet tplanet?

Imagine that someone pushes one marble toward a motionless marble. would there still be action-reaction forces involved in the collision? how might the marbles’ motions be changed? ?

Suppose you have a box. which of these is not necessarily a true statement regarding the relationship between the force applied to the box, the work done on the box, and the distance the box is moved? a. if the box is not moved, no force is being applied to the box. b. if no force is applied to the box, no work is done on the box. c. if work is done on the box, then a force is applied to the box. d. if work is done on the box, then the box is moved a distance.
