F=m*(v^2/r)
F=50.0kg*(1.2m/s^2/16.0m)
F=4.5 N

The density of aluminum is 2.7 × 103 kg/m3 . the speed of longitudinal waves in an aluminum rod is measured to be 5.1 × 103 m/s.
andrey2020 [161]
<span>The speed of longitudinal waves, S, in a thin rod = âšYoung modulus / density , where Y is in N/m^2. So, S = âšYoung modulus/ density. Squaring both sides, we have, S^2 = Young Modulus/ density. So, Young Modulus = S^2 * density; where S is the speed of the longitudinal wave. Then Substiting into the eqn we have (5.1 *10^3)^2 * 2.7 * 10^3 = 26.01 * 10^6 * 2.7 *10^6 = 26.01 * 2.7 * 10^ (6+3) = 70.227 * 10 ^9</span>

Define motion also justify that rest and motion are related terms​
Damm [24]

Answer;

Motion: A body is said to be in motion if it changes its position with respect to its surroundings.

Explanation:

Rest and motion are the relative terms because they depend on the observer's frame of reference. So if two different observers are not at rest with respect to each other, then they too get different results when they observe the motion or rest of a body .

one example for each. Rest: If a body does not change its position with respect to its surroundings, the body is said to be at rest. ... Motion: A body is said to be in motion if it changes its position with respect to its surroundings.

If a pebble is being transported in a stream by rolling, how does the velocity of it compare to the velocity of the stream?
AleksandrR [38]
Streams carry sediment, like pebbles, in their flows. The pebbles can be in a variety of locations in the flow, depending on it's size, the balance between the upwards velocity on the pebble (drag and lift forces), and it's settling velocity.

A mercury thermometer is used to measure the temperature of boiling water.<br>Why?​
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

It has very high density, so a small bulb of a thermometer can contain much mercury. Mercury remains liquid state over a quite wide range of temperature because it freezes at 39°C and boils at 357°C.
