You are sitting at the center of a large turntable at an amusement park as it is set spinning freely. You decide to crawl towards the edge of the turntable. Rotational speed will decrease

There is no external torque

hence , the angular momentum of the table is conserved

L (initial) = L ( final)

since , L = m*v*r

where

m = mass

v = velocity

r = radius

If  the person is crawled towards the outer rim, then the rotational inertia of the turntable will increase. In order to conserve the angular momentum , its rotational speed will decrease as mass and radius cannot be altered .

An experiment yielded the above temperature and time information. what is the freezing point of the material in this experiment
Dmitry [639]
The answer is 0 degrees Celsius (0°C). It will be where the line flat lines the first time.  The second time would be the boiling point.  An experiment yielded the above temperature and time information. The freezing point of the material in this experiment if the material is a solid at time zero is 0 degrees Celsius (0°C) .

At height h above the surface of Earth, the gravitational acceleration is What is h? Note: The radius of Earth is 6380 km.
rusak2 [61]

The acceleration of gravity is inversely proportional to
the square of the distance from Earth's center.

The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s² on the Earth's surface ...
6380 km from the center.

If the acceleration of gravity at 'h' is 4.9 m/s² ... 1/2 of what it is
on the surface, then the distance from the center is

                 (6380 x √2) =  9,023 km  (rounded) ,

and 'h' is the distance above the surface

                     = (9,023 - 6,380) =  2,643 km  (rounded) .

Which circuit is a series circuit ?? plz help
gregori [183]

In a series circuit, all of the components are connected in the same 'loop' and the current only has one direction/path it can flow through.

In the first three options, the current has multiple paths it can go through. So these three circuits are parallel and not series.

In the last option, the current only has one path where it can flow through, so that circuit is in series.

So Circuit <u>D </u>is a series circuit.
