The answer is B and not C. Many people will think that it's C but it's not.

In a large centrifuge used for training pilots and astronauts, a small chamber is fixed at the end of a rigid arm that rotates i
RSB [31]

a) The length of the arm of the centrifuge is 10.9 m

b) The angular acceleration is 2.7 rad/s^2

Explanation:

a)

In a uniform circular motion, the centripetal acceleration is given by

a_c=\omega^2 r

where:

\omega is the angular speed of the circular motion

r is the radius of the circle

For the centrifuge in this problem, we have:

\omega=1.7 rad/s is the angular speed

The centripetal acceleration is 3.2 times the acceleration due to gravity (g=9.8 m/s^2), so:

a_c=3.2 g = 3.2(9.8)=31.4 m/s^2

Therefore, we can re-arrange the previous equation to find r, the radius of the circle (which corresponds to the length of the arm of the centrifuge):

r=\frac{a_c}{\omega^2}=\frac{31.4}{1.7^2}=10.9 m

b)

In the second part of the exercise, the centrifuge speeds up from an initial angular speed of 0 to a final angular speed of 1.7 rad/s. The total acceleration experienced at the final moment is

a=4.4 g

So, 4.4 times the acceleration due to gravity.

The total acceleration is the resultant of the centripetal acceleration (a_c) and the tangential acceleration (a_t):

a=\sqrt{a_c^2+a_t^2}

We know that:

a = 4.4g

a_c = 3.2 g

So, we can find the tangential acceleration:

a_t = \sqrt{a^2-a_c^2}=\sqrt{(4.4g)^2-(3.2g)^2}=29.6 m/s^2

The angular acceleration is related to the tangential acceleration by

\alpha = \frac{a_t}{r}

where r = 10.9 m is the length of the centrifuge. Substituting,

\alpha = \frac{29.6}{10.9}=2.7 rad/s^2

Give an example of how electrical energy and thermal energy are connected.
mafiozo [28]
A toaster draws electric current (electrical energy) from a wall outlet and converts these moving electric charges into heat (thermal energy) in the filaments that turn red hot to cook your toast. ... As electricity runs through the filaments in a space heater, the electrical energy is converted into heat (thermal energy).
Hopefully this helped.

murzikaleks [220]
As long as all the waves stay in the same medium, the intensity of
any waves ... electromagnetic or mechanical ... decrease in proportion
to the square of the distance.

If the distance increases to 3 x the original distance, then the intensity
changes to  1/3² or 1/9 of the original intensity.

I suppose choice-'d' is the correct one, but I have to tell you that
the phrase "nine times as low" is mathematically meaningless,
and it really grinds my gears.
