How did foucaults pendulum and coriolis effect are used to demonstrate earths tilt?

Physics
1 answer:
HACTEHA [7]3 years ago
7 0
They do not demonstrate Earth's tilt. In fact, they're not "used" to demonstrate anything. It works the other way:. When you observe the Coriolis effect and the behavior of the Foucault pendulum, and you try to explain why the behave the way they do, one possible simple explanation for both of them is the Earth's ROTATION. Then, when you also observe the rising and setting of the sun and moon, and you also notice how the NUMBERS all go together, the case for the rotating, spherical Earth gets stronger and stronger.

The speed of an object undergoing constant acceleration increased from 8.0 meters per second to 16.0 meters per second in 10. Se
saw5 [17]

v₀ = initial speed of the object = 8 meter/second

v = final speed of the object = 16 meter/second

t = time taken to increase the speed = 10 seconds

d = distance traveled by the object in the given time duration = ?

using the kinematics equation

d = (v + v₀) t/2

inserting the above values in the above equation

d = (16 + 8) (10)/2

d = 120 meter

As 390 g of hot milk cools in a mug, it transfers 30,000 J of heat to the environment. What is the temperature change of the mil
kotykmax [81]
The correct answer is 19.72 °C. The first step is to determine the amount of heat that was lost per gram (30,000 J) / (390 g) = 76.92 J/g. Then to determine the temperature change, divide 76.92 J/g with the given specific heat of milk (76.92 J/g) / (3.9 J/g°C) = 19.72 °C.

How is photon energy calculated? (choose 2)
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

Explanation:

Based on the wave model of light, physicists predicted that increasing light amplitude would increase the kinetic energy of emitted photoelectrons, while increasing the frequency would increase measured current.

Contrary to the predictions, experiments showed that increasing the light frequency increased the kinetic energy of the photoelectrons, and increasing the light amplitude increased the current.

Based on these findings, Einstein proposed that light behaved like a stream of particles called photons with an energy of \text{E}=h\nuE=hνstart text, E, end text, equals, h, \nu.

The work function, \PhiΦ\Phi, is the minimum amount of energy required to induce photoemission of electrons from a metal surface, and the value of \PhiΦ\Phi depends on the metal.

The energy of the incident photon must be equal to the sum of the metal's work function and the photoelectron kinetic energy:

How much power does a 2000 kg car need to accelerate from 20 m/s to 35 m/s in 7 seconds?
Alexus [3.1K]

firstly you get your acceleration with the formula, a=v-u/t. Then you use the formula for kinetic energy 1/2mv^2

then you can finally get the answer for power by dividing your previous answer by the time
