Research 3 types of technology that we have in our world
that are related to either Kepler's Laws or The Universal Law of
Gravity. The technology can be directly related to these topics or
just a snowball effect and only somewhat related to them.
Yo should include:
3 examples of technology
Explanation how the technology helps humans (or will help them in
future)
Explanation how the tecnology is related to Kepler's Laws or The
Universal Law of Gravity

C) The pressure that balances gravity in a white dwarf is called degenerate electron pressure.
D) Stars with a mass like the Sun will end up as a white dwarf star.
E) White dwarfs with mass greater than 1.4 times the Sun's mass cannot exist.
F) The power source of white dwarfs is left-over heat. G) White dwarfs are the coolest main sequence stars.

The mass of Uranus is 8.68 x 1025 kg. That’s 14.536 times more than the mass of Earth.
What is the difference between the forces due to Uranus on a 1.0 kg mass located at the near side of Titania and at the far side of Titania? Titania has a mean radius of 789 km and a mean orbital radius about Uranus of 436,300 km. (Enter the magnitude in newtons.)
Compare this difference to the difference for Earth due to the Moon, 0.22 ✕ 10−5 N. (Tidal forces are the cause of volcanic activity on some moons.)
Calculate the mass (in kg) of the Sun based on data for Uranus's orbit. (Use G = 6.67 ✕ 10−11 N · m2/kg2 in your calculations. Round your answer to at least four significant figures.)
Compare the above calculated value with the Sun's actual mass. (Round your answer to at least three decimal places.)

The heavy boy and light girl are balanced on the seesaw. If they both move inward so that each is exactly half the original distance from the pivot, then the 1) boy's end will move downward. 2) girl's end will move downward. 3) seesaw will remain in balance. If the fulcrum of the seesaw is repositioned so each can sit at an END of the board and be in balance, then if each moves inward half way the 4) boy's end will move downward. 5) girl's end will move downward. 6) seesaw will remain balanced. choose one answer from (1-3) and one answer from (4-6)

A baseball is thrown from the roof of 23.5 m -tall building with an initial velocity of magnitude 10.5 m/s and directed at an angle of 52.4° above the horizontal.
What is the speed of the ball just before it strikes the ground? Use energy methods and ignore air resistance.
What is the answer if the initial velocity is at an angle of 52.4° below the horizontal?
If the effects of air resistance are included, will part (a) or (b) give the higher speed? Why?

Bohr theory of the atom:
In the hydrogenic Bohr orbit of quantum number n compute the ratio of the circumference of the orbit to the wavelength of the electron. Provide an interpretation of this result in terms of the concepts of de Broglie.
Treating the Bohr orbit as a circulating electrical current, compute the magnetic moment of the electron in a Bohr orbit of quantum number n (Hint: use Ampere’s law). What is the ratio between the magnetic moment and the angular momentum?
