Dizziness. Our balance is maintained, at least in part, by the endolymph fluid in the inner ear. Spinning displaces this fluid,

causing dizziness. Suppose a dancer (or skater) is spinning at a very fast 2.9 revolutions per second about a vertical axis through the center of his head. Although the distance varies from person to person, the inner ear is approximately 7.0 cm from the axis of spin.What is the radial acceleration (in m/s^2 ) of the endolymph fluid?

Answer:

23.2 m/s^2

Explanation:

First of all, we need to convert the angular velocity from revolutions per second to radiands per second. We know that

1 rev = 2 \pi rad

So\omega = 2.9 rev/s \cdot 2\pi rad/rev =18.2 rad/s

We also know that the distance of the inner ear from the centre of the circular path is

r = 7.0 cm = 0.07 m

the radial (centripetal) acceleration experienced by a point on the inner ear is

a=\omega^2 r

Therefore, substutiting the previous values, we find the radial acceleration of the endolymph fluid:

a=(18.2)^2(0.07)=23.2 m/s^2

A ladybug sits at the outer edge of a turntable, and a gentleman bug sits halfway between her and the axis of rotation. The turn
inn [45]

Answer:

The answer to the question is

The ladybug begins to slide

Explanation:

To solve the question we assume that the frictional force of the ladybug and the gentleman bug are the same

Where the  frictional force equals F_{Friction} = μ×N = m×g×μ

and the centripetal force is given by m·ω²·r

If we denote the properties of the ladybug as 1 and that of the gentleman bug as 2, we have

m₁×g×μ = m₁·ω²·r₁ ⇒ g×μ = ω²·r₁

and for the gentleman bug we have

m₂×g×μ = m₂·ω²·r₂ ⇒ g×μ = ω²·r₂

But r₁ = 2×r₂

Therefore substituting the values of r₁ =2×r₂ we have

g×μ = ω²·r₁ = g×μ = ω²·2·r₂

Therefore   ω²·r₂ = 0.5×g×μ for the ladybug. That is the ladybug has to overcome half the frictional force experienced by the gentleman bug before it start to slide

The ladybug begins to slide

Which of Earth's spheres have the greatest impact from the forest fire?
Vera_Pavlovna [14]
I would say the atmosphere because air and oxygen are essential for human life however it is debatable. You should check out this prezi and judge for yourself which sphere is effected the most from forest fires based on the descriptions on how a forest fire effects all four spheres.

what is the maximum distance we can shoot a dart,from ground level provided our toy dart gun gives a maximum initial velocity of
mestny [16]

Answer:

R = v^2 sin 2 theta / g

The range provides the distance a projectile can travel

R(max) = v^2 / g    if theta = 45 deg

R = 2.7^2 / 9.8 = .74 m
