The radius, r, of the child from the center of the wheel is
r = 1.3 m

The wheel makes one revolution in 4.2 s. Its angular velocity is
ω = (2π rad)/(4.2 s) = 1.496 rad/s

The linear speed of the child is the tangential velocity, given by
v = rω
   = (1.3 m)*(1.496 rad/s)
   = 1.945 m/s

Answer: 1.95 m/s  (nearest hundredth)

Remember in solving any Physics problem it is important to write all the given parameter. Given are 1 complete revolution of merry go-round or can be written as 1rev/s, this should be converted to radians, since it makes one complete revolution. Radius given equal to 1.3 m from the center. Simply follow the process,  ω=1rev/s x 2πrads/rev  ω=answer will in "rad/s" or cancel the unit "rev". The formula to follow is Speed=rω. just multiply radius and the angular speed.

A package of aluminum foil contains 50. Ft2 of foil, which weighs approximately 7.0 oz . Aluminum has a density of 2.70 g/cm3. W
kumpel [21]

We know density = Mass / Volume

So Volume = Mass/Density

Volume =  Area * Thickness

Area = 50 ft^2 = 4.645152 m^2\\ \\Mass = 7 oz = 0.198447 kg\\ \\Density = 2.70 g/cm^3 = 2700 kg/m^3\\ \\Substituting \\ \\4.645152 *t = \frac{0.198447}{2700} \\ \\t = 1.58*10^{-5}m = 1.58*10^{-2}mm

So the approximate thickness of the foil in millimeters = 1.58*10^{-2}mm

Which of the following is a way earth’s water (hydrosphere) is directly affected by pollution?
ASHA 777 [7]

The toxic runoff from the farms will directly enters the water bodies of the earth through the drainage system.

The emissions from the cars will go into atmosphere and will react with water and then it will enter the earth's water. So, it is not directly affecting the earth's water.

The dumping trash on roadsides do not enter the earth's water. It can enter the earth's water through rains.

The production of oxygen by trees is not pollution.

Hence, option (A) is correct.

Since there are no aurora observed on Venus we can conclude that Venus a. lacks atmospheric oxygen b. is too hot for magnetic fo
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Yes, Venus does not have the same magnetic field as that of earth's  

Explanation:

Instead, there are solar wind particles that can deeply penetrate the venus atmosphere and can collide with the other carbon atoms already present in the air but lacks oxygen and thus does not have that strong magnetic field which would deflect the suns rays and create aurora in the sky at night.

Two long straight parallel lines of charge, #1 and #2, carry positive charge per unit lengths of λ1 and λ2, respectively. λ1 &gt
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Somewhere between the two wires, but closer to the wire carrying λ₂

Explanation:

Electric Field for a point at distance x from an electric charge Q is Ef = K*Q/x².

Electric Fied due to an electric charge is a vector and its direction is  such that  if we place a positive charge in the point it will be rejected ( equal sign charge repulse each other and different attract each other)

According to that previous explanation, it is no possible two have Ef=0 out of the two wires region, since above the upper wire and below the lower wire we have to add the two electric fields (both have the same direction). Therefore we only have possibilities of Ef = 0 inside the two wires, where the repulsion produced over a positive charge due to the two wires  are opposite

In the particular case in which λ₁ and λ₂ are equals then all the points exactly in the middle of d (distance between the two wires ) will have Ef =0.

As we can see at the beginning of the step by step explanation Electric field is proportional to the electric charge, or for a bigger charge, bigger Ef (keeping constant distance). In our case λ₁ >λ₂ then E₁ (Electric field produced by a wire carrying λ₁ will be bigger than (Electric field produced by wire carrying λ₂ at the middle way between the wires.

But for points closer to wire with λ₂  ( where E₂ is bigger than E₁ ) we will surely find an appropriate distance  to get equals E and then Ef = 0
