Answer:

Her angular momentum does not change.

Explanation:

Conservation of angular momentum: It states that there is no change in the angular momentum when no torque outside the system is applied to the body.

In the given problem, an ice skater spins her arm outstretched. She pulls her arms in towards her body.

The angular momentum of an ice skaters remains same as the there is no external torque applied on an ice skater. The initial angular momentum  and the final angular momentum of the given system are same. Therefore, the angular momentum is conserved.

Therefore, her angular momentum does not change.

umka21 [38]

Answer:

a) a = 1,865 m / s²  and  b)  t = 8.1 s

Explanation:

a) Let's use Newton's second law to find acceleration, we can work the equation in scalar form because displacement and force have the same direction

         F = m .a

         a = F / m

         a = 8.02 10² /4.3 10²

         a = 1,865 m / s²

b) We use kinematic relationships in one dimension

        vf = vo + at

        vf = 0 + a t

         t = vf / a

          t = 15.1 / 1.865

          t = 8.1 s

Chanice drives her scooter 7 kilometers north. she stops for lunch and then drives 5 kilometers and then 1 km east again. what d
lord [1]

Distance covered is given as follows

1). 7 km North

2). 5 km North

3). 1 km East

Now total distance covered will be given as

d = d_1 + d_2 + d_3

d = 7 km + 5 km + 1 km

d = 13 km

Now in order to find the displacement we will show all with their directions

\vec d_1 = 7 + 5 = 12 km towards North

\vec d_2 = 1 km towards East

So total displacement is

\vec d = \vec d_1 + \vec d_2

\vec d = 12 \hat j + 1 \hat i

so net displacement will be

d = \sqrt{12^2 + 1^2} = 12.04 km

so displacement is 12.04 km

At a distance D from a very long (essentially infinite) uniform line of charge, the electric field strength is 1000 N/C. At what
Alla [95]

Answer:

The correct option is (a).

Explanation:

We know that, the E is inversely proportional to the distance as follows :

E=\dfrac{k}{d^2}

We can write it as follows :

\dfrac{E_1}{E_2}=(\dfrac{d_2}{d_1})^2

Put all the values,

\dfrac{1000}{2000}=(\dfrac{d_2}{d})^2\\\\\sqrt{\dfrac{1000}{2000}}=(\dfrac{d_2}{D})\\\\0.7071=\dfrac{d_2}{d}\\\\d_1=0.7071D\\\\d_1=\dfrac{D}{\sqrt2}

So, the correct option is (a).

Two competing models attempt to explain the motions and changing brightness of the planets: Ptolemy's geocentric model and Coper
AlekseyPX

Answer:

A. Geocentric: This model is Earth Centered . Retrograde motion is explained by epicycles .

B. Heliocentric: This model is Sun centered.  Retrograde motion is explained by the orbital speeds of planets

C. Both geocentric and heliocentric: Epicycles and deferents help explain planetary motion . Planets move in circular orbits and with uniform motion . The brightness of a planet increases when the planet is closest to Earth.

Explanation:

The principle of the Ptolemy's geocentric model was developed on the assumption that the center of the universe is the Earth. On the other hand, the principle of the Copernicus' heliocentric model was based on the assumption that the center of the universe is the sun. However, both models have a common ideology on uniform circular motion and epicycles.

How long does it take decaying organisms to transform into fossil fuels?
taurus [48]

Answer:

Millions or hundreds of million of years

Explanation:

It takes a very long time for decaying substances to form fossil fuels. It takes around millions or hundreds of million of years for the transformation to occur. This explains why they aren’t renewable.

Decayed plant materials usually form coal while decayed animal materials form crude oil.
