Answer:

Incomplete question

The complete question is

A Ferris wheel is a vertical, circular amusement ride with radius 6.0 m. Riders sit on seats that swivel to remain horizontal. The Ferris wheel rotates at a constant rate, going around once in 9.6 s. Consider a rider whose mass is 96 kg.

At the bottom of the ride, what is the rate of change of the rider's momentum?

Explanation:

Radius of wheel is 6m

Rider mass=96kg

He completes one revolution in 9.6s

Let get angular velocity (w)

1 Revolution =2πrad

θ=2πrad

w= θ/t

w=2π/9.6

w=0.654rad/s

Linear speed is give as

v=wr

v=0.654×6

v=3.93m/s

Centripetal acceleration a

a=rw²

a=6×0.654²

a=2.57m/s²

Acceleration due to gravity g=9.81m/s²

According to Newton's second law of motion net force acting on the rider at the bottom of the ride is given by: the two force acting at the bottom is the normal and the weight of the rider

ΣF = ma

N-W=ma

N-mg=ma

N=ma+mg

N=m(a+g)

N=96(2.57+9.81)

N=1188.48 N

Therefore the rate of change of momentum at the bottom of the ride is 1188.48 N.

1. What is the relationship between wavelength and the penetrating power of an electromagnetic wave?
Andreyy89

#1

As we know that energy of electromagnetic wave is given by

E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}

so here we know that penetrating power will directly depends on its energy and energy inversely depends on wavelength

So here we can say correct answer will be

C) The penetrating power decreases as the wavelength increases.

#2

Speed of sound is maximum in solids and minimum in gas

so here as ice melts into water the speed of sound must have to decrease

so correct answer will be

D) The speed of sound would decrease because sound travels faster through solids than liquids.

#3

mechanical waves required medium to travel while non mechanical waves do not require any medium to travel

so here correct answer will be

A) sound

Which fossil fuel is produced as a by-product that occurs when bacteria decompose organic material under anaerobic conditions?
Mumz [18]

Bio-gas is the naturally produced fossil fuel, a by-product when bacteria decompose organic material under anaerobic conditions.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Organic matter particularly waste material is broken down by bacteria through fermentation in an environmental condition without any presence of oxygen. This process of decomposition leads to formation of bio-gas with "carbon dioxide and methane" in a 2:3 ratio.

The above biological process is termed as bio-digestion or anaerobic digestion. Methane is flammable and thus bio-gas can be used as "energy source", a waste-to-energy transformation. The remaining decomposed matter is ideal as manure for plants due to its rich nutrient level.
