A typical running track is an oval with 74-mm-diameter half circles at each end. A runner going once around the track covers a d

istance of 400 mm . Suppose a runner, moving at a constant speed, goes once around the track in 1 minmin 40 s.What is her centripetal acceleration during the turn at each end of the track?

The centripetal acceleration a is 4.32 \times 10^-4 m/s^2.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The speed is constant and computing the speed from the distance and time for one full lap.

Given, distance = 400 mm = 0.4 m,       Time = 100 s.

Computing the v = 0.4 m / 100 s

                         v = 4 \times 10^-3 m/s.

radius of the circular end r = 37 mm = 0.037 m.

            centripetal acceleration a = v^2 / r

                                                        = (4 \times 10^-3)^2 / 0.037

                                                    a = 4.32 \times 10^-4 m/s^2.

In which of these samples do the molecules most likely have the most kinetic energy? (2 points)
Vinvika [58]

D, water vapor. Gaseous state would have more kinetic energy, they are moving faster. If you have to compare the same state, then higher temperature would have the higher kinetic energy. But if you have solid and liquid at the same temperature - then liquid would have more.

A star emits electromagnetic radiation which closely resembles the spectrum of a blackbody. The three star system named Albireo
aksik [14]

Answer:

A = 13000K has a maximum at lam = 1,9984 10⁻⁷ m = 199.84 nm , this star is visually separated from the other two by its constant emission spectrum and is not affected by the other two.

we have a fluctuation of the intensity emitted by the stars.   Consequently by this fluctuation the amateur astronomer can conclude that this system is made up of two stars.

Explanation:

The radiation of a black body is characterized by its temperature, with Wien's law of displacement we can find the maximum wavelength emitted by each star.

                  λ T = 2,898 10⁻³

therefore the emission the star of A = 13000K has a maximum at lam = 1,9984 10⁻⁷ m = 199.84 nm

The emission of the premiere is in the ultraviolet light range, as this star is visually separated from the other two by its constant emission spectrum and is not affected by the other two.

The burst with A = 4300K ​​has a bad emission maximum = 6.7395 10⁻⁷ m = 673.95 nm, which corresponds to an emission in the visible in the orange range, giving a blackbody spectrum of this range, but since the emission is formed by two stars, we see that when the two are placed one in front of the other the intensity of the emission must increase significantly and when they are placed next to each other the intensity reaches its minimum, consequently we have a fluctuation of the intensity emitted by the stars.

Consequently by this fluctuation the amateur astronomer can conclude that this system is made up of two stars.

Nitella [24]
I think a obstetrician, since they specifically deal with pregnancy and birth. They would guide you through the entire pregnancy. Hope this helps :))
