A skater can spin faster by pulling her arms closer to her body or spin slower by spreading her arms out from her body due to conservation of angular momentum.

What is conservation of angular momentum?

  • Conservation of angular momentum is a physical property of a spinning system such that its spin remains constant unless it is acted upon by an external force, or to put in another way, the speed of rotation is constant as long as net torque is zero.
  • Angular momentum, sometimes also referred to as spin, is determined by an object's mass, its velocity and distance of an object's mass from the point of rotation.
  • The nearer the mass is to its axis point or the more consolidated it is around that axis the greater its velocity.

A bat emitts a sonar sound wave (343 m/s) that bounces off a mosquito 8.42 m away
Varvara68 [4.7K]

The time lapse between when the bat emits the sound and when it hears the echo is 0.05 s.

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Velocity of sound (v) = 343 m/s

Distance (x) = 8.42 m

Time (t) =?

We can obtain obtained the time as illustrated below:

v = 2x / t

343 = 2 × 8.42 / t

343 = 16.84 / t

Cross multiply

343 ×  t = 16.84

Divide both side by 343

t = 16.84/343

t = 0.05 s

Thus, the time between  when the bat emits the sound and when it hears the echo is 0.05 s.

<h3>How does a bat know how far away something is?</h3>

A bat emits a sound wave and carefully listens to the echoes that return to it. The returning information is processed by the bat's brain in the same way that we processed our shouting sound with a stopwatch and calculator. The bat's brain determines the distance of an object by measuring how long it takes for a noise to return.

How does adding more of a substance affect it's density?
fomenos
I’m going to use molasses as an example of a substance.

The mass and volume both change when changing the amount of molasses.
However, the density does not change. This is because the mass and volume increase at the same rate/proportion!

Even though there is more molasses (mass) in test tube A, the molasses also takes up more space (volume). Therefore, the spacing between those tiny particles that make up the molasses is constant (does not change).

The size or amount of a material/substance does not affect its density.

States that there is an exchange of materials when two objects come into contact with each other
pishuonlain [190]

"Edmond Locard" states that there is an exchange of materials when two objects come into contact with each other.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A French criminologist who was popular as the "Sherlock Holmes of France," the pioneer in forensic science named as Dr. Edmond Locard. He articulated forensic science's fundamental principle "Each touch leaves a trace." This became known as Locard's philosophy of exchange. A Locard hypothesized that each and every time you touch another person, place or object, the result would be an exchange of materials. Burglars, for instance, will leave evidence of their existence behind and take traces with them too.

What is the total kinetic energy of a 0.15 kg hockey puck sliding at 0.5 m/s and rotating about its center at 8.4 rad/s
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

K=0.023J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mass m=0.15

Velocity v=0.5m/s

Angular Velocity \omega=8.4rad/s

Generally the equation for Kinetic Energy is mathematically given by

K=\frac{1}{2}M(v^2+\frac{1}{2}R^2\omega^2)

K=\frac{1}{2}0.15(0.5^2+\frac{1}{2}(0.038)^2.(8.4rad/s^2))

K=0.023J
