(c) is the correct choice.
El Nino (a), Earth's orbit (b), and solar energy output (d) are all "natural" occurrences. You can't do a thing aboutum.
Fossil fuels ... or, more precisely, humanity's use of vast quantities of fossil fuels as a convenient source of huge quantities of energy ... and the subsequent increase of Carbon Dioxide in the planet's atmosphere, is not the result of "natural" processes. It's the result of human efforts to <em>alter and control</em> Nature, through <em>artificial</em> processes.
Answer:
<em>The centripetal acceleration would increase by a factor of 4</em>
<em>Correct choice: B.</em>
Explanation:
<u>Circular Motion</u>
The circular motion is described when an object rotates about a fixed point called center. The distance from the object to the center is the radius. There are other magnitudes in the circular motion like the angular speed, tangent speed, and centripetal acceleration. The formulas are:
If the speed is doubled and the radius is the same, then
The centripetal acceleration would increase by a factor of 4
Correct choice: B.
Explanation:
Given:
v₀ = 0 m/s
a = 3 m/s²
t = 4 s
Find: Δx and v
Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²
Δx = (0 m/s) (4 s) + ½ (3 m/s²) (4 s)²
Δx = 24 m
v = at + v₀
v = (3 m/s²) (4 s) + 0 m/s
v = 12 m/s
F = 52000 N
m = 1060 kg
a= F/m = 52000 N/1060 kg = 49.0566 m/s^2
I think its Mercury because it's the closest to the sun.
