A. Because metal is a good conductor of heat.

If a frying pan wasn't a good conductor of heat it's purpose of cooking things wouldn't really be resolved. Without heat it couldn't cook well. I think lol that's my way of thinking.

Hope I helped :)

The sidereal period of the moon around the Earth is 27.3 days. Suppose a satellite were placed in Earth orbit, halfway between E

icang [17]

Answer: 9.7 days

Explanation:

Applying Kepler's 3rd law, we can write the following proportion:

(Tm)² / (dem)³ = (Tsat)² / (dem/2)³

(As the satellite is placed in an orbit halfway between Erth's center and the moon's orbit).

Simplifyng common terms, and solving for Tsat, we have:

Tsat = √((27.3)²/8) = 9.7 days

A 1-kg rock is suspended from the tip of a horizontal meterstick at the 0-cm mark so that the meterstick barely balances like a

tigry1 [53]

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass if the rock, m = 1 kg

It is suspended from the tip of a horizontal meter stick at the 0-cm mark so that the meter stick barely balances like a seesaw when its fulcrum is at the 12.5-cm mark.

We need to find the mass of the meter stick. The force acting by the stone is

F = 1 × 9.8 = 9.8 N

Let W be the weight of the meter stick. If the net torque is zero on the stick then the stick does not move and it remains in equilibrium condition. So, taking torque about the pivot.

$9.8\times 12.5=W\times (50-12.5)\\\\W=\dfrac{9.8\times 12.5}{37.5}$

W = 3.266 N

The mass of the meters stick is :

$m=\dfrac{W}{g}\\\\m=\dfrac{3.266}{9.81}\\\\m=0.333\ kg$

So, the mass of the meter stick is 0.333 kg.

Explain why the same side of the moon is always facing Earth.

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

The moon keeps the same face pointing towards the Earth because its rate of spin is tidally locked so that it is synchronized with its rate of revolution (the time needed to complete one orbit). In other words, the moon rotates exactly once every time it circles the Earth.
