Which of the following is the best example of a primary circular reaction?

olga55 [171]

Primary Circular Reactions (1-4 months): This substage involves coordinating sensation and new schemas. For example, a child may suck his or her thumb by accident and then later intentionally repeat the action. These actions are repeated because the infant finds them pleasurable.

An object of mass 8kg moved around the circle of radius 4m. with a constant speed of 15m/s.

Marianna [84]

Answer:

a. Angular velocity = 0.267rad/s.

b. Centripetal acceleration = 56.25m/s.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass, m = 8kg

Radius, r = 4m

Constant speed, V = 15m/s

a. To find the angular velocity

Angular velocity = radius/speed

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Angular velocity = 4/15

Angular velocity = 0.267rad/s

b. To find the acceleration;

Centripetal acceleration = V²/r

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Centripetal acceleration = 15²/4

Centripetal acceleration = 225/4

Centripetal acceleration = 56.25m/s.

After the big bang, atoms in gas clouds experienced a greater gravitational pull to each other than atoms in other regions of th

allsm [11]

Answer:
These are the two statements with scientific facts that explain the described phenomenon

Gravitation between two objects increases when the distance between them decreases.

When the mass of an object increases, its gravitational pull also increases.

Justification:

Those two facts are represented in the Universal Law of Gravity discovered by the scientific Sir Isaac Newton (1642 to 1727) and published in his book Philosophiae naturalis principia mathematica.

That law is represented by the equation:

F = G × m₁ × m₂ / d²

The product of the two masses on the numerator accounts for the fact that the gravitational force is directly proportional to the product of the masses, which is that as the masses increase the attraction also increase.

The term d² (square of the distance that separates the objects) in the denominator accounts for the fact that the gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance; that is as the separation of the objects increase the gravitational force decrease.
