A1. Although the size of Box 1 doesn't change, its measured dimensions using the different rulers are different why?
7) Assume that we have a distant Star-Planet system with no other planets and the Star is the same as the Sun and the planet is the same as the Earth. (This is called an "Earth analog" or "Earth twin".) The masses and orbits are the same, except you can assume a perfect circular orbit. a. Calculate the equation for the orbital velocity of a planet on a circular orbit. To do this use the equation for average speed: distance=rate * time. In a circular orbit, the speed (not the velocity!) is always the same, so can use a time that is one full orbital period (i.e., 1 year). What is the distance that a planet on a circular orbit traverses in this time? Calculate the speed of the Earth twin in meters/second.

The SI unit of force is a newton. What is a newton in terms of the more basic units, kilograms (kg), meters (m), and seconds (sec)? What is the magnitude and direction of the gravitational force that you exert on the Earth? Consider your answer to part a. 2. Contact Forces¹: Besides gravity, nearly all other forces we will encounter in this course are contact forces, which means that the two objects must be touching for the objects to exert forces on each other. Normal Force: When a surface is touching an object, the surface exerts a force on the object that is perpendicular to the surface and pushes into the object. This is called a "normal" force (normal means perpendicular in math). The harder the surfaces press against each other, the larger the normal force.²
