5) The computational model below shows the total energy (Etotal) of a closed system, which is equal to the sum of the total kinetic energy (KEtotal) and the gravitational potential energy (U) between the masses m1 and m2 separated by distance r. Etotal=KEtotal+U, where U=−G^m1m2r
Which statement explains the reason why planets closer to the sun orbit faster than those that are farther away?
-The value of Etotal increases significantly the closer the planet is to the sun. -The value of KEtotal increases because U has a larger negative value.
-The value of KEtotal increases because U has a lesser negative value.
-The value of G increases significantly the closer the planet is to the sun.

6)In a closed system, the initial kinetic energy is 70 J. The initial potential energy is 20 J. What is the total final energy of the system?
70 J

45 J

50 J

The great sandini is a 60.0-kg circus performer who is shot from a cannon (actually a spring gun). you don’t find many men of his caliber, so you him design a new gun. this new gun has a very large spring with a very small mass and a force constant of 1100 n/m that he will compress with a force of 4400 n. the inside of the gun barrel is coated with teflon, so the average friction force will be only 40.0 n during the 4.00 m he moves in the barrel. at what speed will he emerge from the end of the barrel, 2.50 m above his initial rest position?
