Why is everything spinning? Moons, planets and stars all rotate on their axes, moons orbit planets, planets orbit stars, spiral

galaxies rotate around super-massive black holes, etc. What force is causing all this spinning?

Answer:

Conservation of angular momentum

Explanation:

When the objects spread in universe after big bang, because of the tremendous force , they gained angular momentum and started to rotate. Since, then the object continue to rotate on their axis because of conservation of angular momentum. In vacuum of space there no other forces that can stop these rotation, therefore, they continue to rotate.

The fast train known as the TGV (Train à Grande Vitesse) that runs south from Paris, France, has a scheduled average speed of 21
andrezito [222]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

average speed of train(v_{avg})=216 kmph\approx 60 m/s

Maximum acceleration=0.05g

Now centripetal acceleration is

a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}

0.05\times 9.8=\frac{60^2}{r}

r=7346.93 m

(b)Radius of curvature=900 m

therefore a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}

v=\sqrt{a_cr}

v=\sqrt{0.05\times 9.8\times 900}

v=\sqrt{441}=21 m/s

Two charged particles separated by a distance of = 3 and experienced electrostatic forces of = 60 . What would be this force if
klemol [59]

Answer: 539.4 N

Explanation:

Let's begin by explaining that Coulomb's Law establishes the following:  

"The electrostatic force F_{E} between two point charges q_{1} and q_{2} is proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance d that separates them, and has the direction of the line that joins them"

What is written above is expressed mathematically as follows:

F_{E}= K\frac{q_{1}.q_{2}}{d^{2}} (1)

Where:

F_{E}=60 N  is the electrostatic force

K=8.99(10)^{9} Nm^{2}/C^{2} is the Coulomb's constant  

q_{1} and q_{2} are the electric charges

d=3 m is the separation distance between the charges  

Then:

60 N= 8.99(10)^{9} Nm^{2}/C^{2}\frac{q_{1}.q_{2}}{(3 m)^{2}} (2)

Isolating q_{1} and q_{2}:

q_{1}q_{2}=6(10)^{-8} C^{2} (3)

Now, if we keep the same charges but we decrease the distance to d_{1}=1 m, (1) is rewritten as:

F_{E}=8.99(10)^{9} Nm^{2}/C^{2}\frac{6(10)^{-8} C^{2}}{(1 m)^{2}} (4)

Then, the new electrostatic force will be:

F_{E}= 539.4 N (5) As we can see, the electrostatic force is increased when we decrease the distance between the charges.

In 1-2 sentences describe how your nose cleans the air you inhale.
svp [43]

Answer: Your nose inhales O2 and goes through these little nose hairs to keep stuff that doesn't belong in your airway, it goes through your nose into your lungs taking in O2 for your blood. The other substances that you have inhaled get absorbed elsewhere and it is converted into CO2 which is what you exhale.

After an incandescent lamp is turned on, the temperature of its filament rapidly increases from room temperature to its operatin
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer: (1) The resistance increases and the current decreases.

Explanation:  

When the temperature of the filament increases, the vibrational energy of the constituent atoms increases which leads to increase in inter-atomic collision. Thus, the resistance would increase. The increases in resistance would obstruct the flow of charges more leading to decrease in the value of the current.

Hence, when the temperature of the filament increase, the resistance increases and current decreases.
