Answer:

The Eurasian Plate

Explanation:

The Eurasian plate is one of the most extended on Earth, crossing all of Asia and Europe. The Eurasian plate is between the North American and the African Plates on the north and west sides. The Eurasian plate crushed up above the Indian plate. The Tibetan plateau and the Himalayan mountain range formed due to the crush between the Eurasian Plate and Indian Plate, which started 50 million years ago.

A 120 g, 8.0-cm-diameter gyroscope is spun at 1000 rpm and allowed to precess. What is the precession period?

dolphi86 [110]

To solve this problem we will derive the expression of the precession period from the moment of inertia of the given object. We will convert the units that are not in SI, and finally we will find the precession period with the variables found. Let's start defining the moment of inertia.

$I = MR^2$

Here,

M = Mass

R = Radius of the hoop

The precession frequency is given as

$\Omega = \frac{Mgd}{I\omega}$

Here,

M = Mass

g= Acceleration due to gravity

d = Distance of center of mass from pivot

I = Moment of inertia

$\omega$ = Angular velocity

Replacing the value for moment of inertia

$\Omega= \frac{MgR}{MR^2 \omega}$

$\Omega = \frac{g}{R\omega}$

The value for our angular velocity is not in SI, then

$\omega = 1000rpm (\frac{2\pi rad}{1 rev})(\frac{1min}{60s})$

$\omega = 104.7rad/s$

Replacing our values we have that

$\Omega = \frac{9.8m/s^2}{(8*10^{-2}m)(104.7rad)}$

$\Omega = 1.17rad/s$

The precession frequency is

$\Omega = \frac{2\pi rad}{T}$

$T = \frac{2\pi rad}{\Omega}$

$T = \frac{2\pi}{1.17}$

$T = 5.4 s$

Therefore the precession period is 5.4s

1) draw a simple circuit with a voltage source and four resistors wired in series

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

1)

In this circuit (see attachment #1), we have:

- A voltage source: in this case, we choose a battery. A voltage source is a device producing an electromotive force (in a battery, this is done by means of a chemical reaction), which is responsible for "pushing" the electrons along the circuit and creating a current. The electromotive force (emf) of the battery is also called voltage, and it is indicated with the letter V.

- Four resistors: a resistor is a device which opposes to the flow of current. The property that describes by "how much" the resistor "opposes" to the flow of current is called "resistance", and it is indicated with the letter R.

- In this circuit, the 4 resistors are in series. Resistors are said to be in series when they are connected along the same branch of the circuit, so that the same current flow across each of them.

- For resistors in series, the equivalent resistance of the circuit is given by the sum of the individual resistances:

$R=R_1+R_2+...+R_n$

2)

In this circuit (see attachment #2), we have:

- A voltage source: as before, we have chosen a battery, providing an electromotive force to the circuit

- Three resistors wired in parallel. Resistors are said to be connected in parallel when they are connected along different branches, but with their terminals connected to the same point, so that each of them has the same potential difference across it.

- For resistors in parallel, the equivalent resistance of the circuit is calculated using the formula:

$\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}+...+\frac{1}{R_n}$

3)

In this circuit (see attachment #3), we have:

- A voltage source (again, we have choosen a battery)

- Three resistors, of which:

-- 2 of them are connected in parallel with each other

-- the 3rd one it is in series with the first two

If we call $R_1,R_2$ the resistances of the first 2 resistors in parallel, their equivalent resistance is:

$\frac{1}{R_{12}}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}\\\rightarrow R_{12}=\frac{R_1 R_2}{R_1+R_2}$

Then, these two resistors are connected in series with resistor $R_3$ ; and so, the total resistance of this circuit will be:

$R=R_{12}+R_3=\frac{R_1R_2}{R_1+R_2}+R_3=\frac{R_1R_2+R_3(R_1+R_2)}{R_1+R_2}$

4)

In this circuit (see attachment #4), we have:

- A voltage source (again, a battery)

- We have 6 resistors, which are arranged as follows:

-- Two branches each containing 3 resistors

-- The two branches are in parallel with each other

So, the total resistance of the two branches are:

$R_{123}=R_1+R_2+R_3$

$R_{456}=R_4+R_5+R_6$

And since the two branches are in parallel, their total resistance will be:

$\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{R_{123}}+\frac{1}{R_{456}}\\\rightarrow R=\frac{R_{123}R_{456}}{R_{123}+R_{456}}=\frac{(R_1+R_2+R_3)(R_4+R_5+R_6)}{R_1+R_2+R_3+R_4+R_5+R_6}$

Based on the replacement reaction, what would the products of the reaction be?

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

$\rm Be(OH)_2$ and $\rm (NH_4)_2 SO_4$ . The missing ion would be $\rm OH^{-}$ .

Explanation:

In a double replacement reaction, two ionic compounds exchange their ions to produce two different ionic compounds.

In this question, the two ionic compounds are:

$\rm BeSO_4$ , and
$\rm NH_4 OH$ .

In particular,

$\rm BeSO_4$ is made up of $\rm Be^{2+}$ ions and $\rm {SO_4}^{2-}$ ions, while
$\rm NH_4 OH$ is made up of $\rm {NH_4}^{+}$ ions and $\rm OH^{-}$ ions.

In a binary ionic compound, cations (positive ions) can only bond to anions (negative ions.)

$\rm Be^{2+}$ is a cation. In $\rm BeSO_4$ , $\rm Be^{2+}$ was bounded $\rm {SO_4}^{2-}$ anions. During the reaction, it bonds with $\rm OH^{-}$ anions to produce $\rm Be(OH)_2$ .

$\rm {NH_4}^{+}$ is also a cation. In $\rm NH_4 OH$ , $\rm {NH_4}^{+}$ was bounded to $\rm OH^{-}$ ions. During the reaction, it bonds with $\rm {SO_4}^{2-}$ anions to produce $\rm (NH_4)_2 SO_4$ .

Hence, the two products will be $\rm Be(OH)_2$ and $\rm (NH_4)_2 SO_4$ .

Note that charges on the ions must balance. For example, a $\rm Be^{2+}$ ion carries twice as much charge as an $\rm {NH_4}^{+}$ ion. As a result, each $\rm Be^{2+}$ ion would bond with twice as many $\rm OH^{-}$ ions as $\rm {NH_4}^{+}$ would in $\rm NH_4 OH$ .
