A man, holding a weight in each hand, stands at the center of a horizontal frictionless rotating turntable. The effect of the we

ights is to double the rotational inertia of the system. As he is rotating, the man opens his hands and drops the two weights. They fall outside the turntable. Then:

Answer:

 w = 2w₀     the angular velocity of man doubles

Explanation:

In this exercise, releasing the weights reduces the moment of inertia

       I= I₀ / 2

Therefore, since the platform system plus man is isolated, the kinetic moment must be conserved

         L₀ = L

       I₀ w₀ = I w

       I₀ w₀ = I₀ / 2 w

       w = 2w₀

therefore the angular velocity of man doubles

Which principle states that sediments are deposited in sequence unless they are disturbed
Volgvan

The manner in which the sediments are being deposited unless the disturbance by tectonic processes makes it non sequential is theorized with the principle of superposition.

<u>Explanation: </u>

The principle of superposition lets us know that the oldest sediment layer is at the bottom with the newer at the top. For example, xenolith in igneous rock must be older than the rock it contains.

The formation of sedimentary rocks is done via sedimentation occurring in the sequential basis. Due to tectonic process or disruption or even say faults, the layers are sediment in non sequential manner. The entire manner of sequential layering gets turn upside down.

Not really understanding this, wouldn't mind some help. : )
ddd [48]

Explanation:

Given

Mass (m) = 1200 kg

Acceleration (a) = 3 m/s²

Force (F) = ?

We know

F = m * a

= 1200 * 3

= 3600 Newton.

Therefore the force acting on the car is 3600 Newton.

Hope it will help):)
