Hello there.
<span>
At ground level g is 9.8m/s^2. Suppose the earth started to increase its angular velocity. How long would a day be when people on the equator were just 'thrown off'? Why is the expression 'thrown off' a bad one ?
</span>
People would not be thrown off.

Let s = rate of rotation 
<span>Let r = radius of earth = 6,400km </span>
<span>Then solving (s^2) r = g will give the desired rate, from which length of day is inferred. </span>
<span>People would not be thrown off. They would simply move eastward in a straight line while the curved surface of earth fell away from beneath them.</span>

avanturin [10]

Answer:

Yellow, green, polka dot and white jerseys

Explanation:

Tour de France is the biggest bicycle race in the world held at France over a period of 23 days. At the end of each day of racing they give to the certain riders FOUR different colored jerseys:

  1. The yellow jersey is given to the overall winner at each stage, this shows the rider who was the best in the previous stage.
  2. The green jersey is given to the best sprinter of each stage,
  3. The polka dot jersey is given to the rider who first reach the crest of designated hills and mountains at each stage.
  4. The white jersey is given to the fastest rider at each stage under 25 years at the beginning of the racing year.

At the end of the competition, the total points are counted and the different jerseys are given to the overall winners.

The energy of the electron in Hydrogen atom can be shown to be given by En = -13.6/n^2 eV, where n represents the principal quan
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

This represents radiation in ultra-violet region .

Explanation:

Energy of the orbit where n = 3 is given as follows

E_3 =- \frac{13.6 }{3^2}

E_3 =- \frac{13.6 }{9} = -1.511 eV

Energy of the orbit where n = 1 is given as follows

E_1 =- \frac{13.6 }{1^2}

E_1 =- \frac{13.6 }{1} = 13.6 eV

Difference of [tex]E_3 and [tex]E_1 = - 1.511+ 13.6

= 12.089 eV.

The wavelength of light having this energy in nm is given by the expression as follows

Wavelength in nm = 1244 / energy in eV

= 1244 / 12.089

= 102.90 nm

This represents radiation in ultra-violet region .

There will not be enough momentum from the first hill to cross another hill if he same or larger size because of the way potential energy and kinetic energy works it will not be able go as high as it could go on he fist hill.

When the temperature of the air is 25 degress C, the velocity of a sound wave traveling through the air is approximately
dusya [7]
Assuming an ideal gas, the speed of sound depends on temperature 
only.   Air is almost an ideal gas. 

Assuming the temperature of 25°C in a "standard atmosphere", the 
density of air is 1.1644 kg/m3, and the speed of sound is 346.13 m/s. 

The velocity can't be specified, since the question gives no information 
regarding the direction of the sound.
