Astronauts brought back 500 lbs rock samples from the moon. They brought back 227 kilograms of sample.

An Astronaut is a person who has been educated, prepared, and put into space as part of a human spaceflight mission to serve as a commander or crew member. The word is frequently used to refer to scientists as well as professional space explorers, while being usually reserved for all of those who travel into space on a daily basis.

According to the given question, Astronaut bought back 550 lbs sample,

We know that,

2.20lbs = 1 kg.

1 lbs = 1/2.20 kg

1 lbs = 0.45 kg

Hence, 500 lbs equals 227kgs according to the given relation.

So, Astronauts brought back 227 kilograms of sample.

A cat dozes on a stationary merry-go-round, at a radius of 4.4 m from the center of the ride. The operator turns on the ride and

Answer:

The coefficient of static friction is 0.29

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of the merry-go-round, r = 4.4 m

The operator turns on the ride and brings it up to its proper turning rate of one complete rotation every 7.7 s.

We need to find the least coefficient of static friction between the cat and the merry-go-round that will allow the cat to stay in place, without sliding. For this the centripetal force is balanced by the frictional force.

$\mu mg=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

v is the speed of cat, $v=\dfrac{2\pi r}{t}$

$\mu=\dfrac{4\pi^2r}{gt^2}\\\\\mu=\dfrac{4\pi^2\times 4.4}{9.8\times (7.7)^2}\\\\\mu=0.29$

So, the least coefficient of static friction between the cat and the merry-go-round is 0.29.

How is the q of an rlc parallel resonant circuit calculated?

notka56 [123]

Answer:

It is calculated by dividing Resistance, R, by Inductive reactance, XL.

Explanation:

Q is called the Q factor of a resonance circuit. In a parallel resonance circuit, it is calculated by finding the ratio of the power stored in the circuit to the power distributed in the circuit. It is a way of measuring the quality of a circuit or how effective the circuit is.

Q factor is the inverse in the resonance series circuit.

R = Resistance

XL = Inductive reactance
