It has been suggested that rotating cylinders several miles in length and several miles in diameter be placed in space and used
stepladder [879]

Answer:

the required revolution per hour is 28.6849

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

we know that the expression for the linear acceleration in terms of angular velocity is;

a_{c} = rω²

ω² = a_{c} / r

ω = √( a_{c} / r )

where r is the radius of the cylinder

ω is the angular velocity

given that; the centripetal acceleration equal to the acceleration of gravity a a_{c}  = g = 9.8 m/s²

so, given that, diameter = 4.86 miles = 4.86 × 1609 = 7819.74 m

Radius r = Diameter / 2 = 7819.74 m / 2 = 3909.87 m

so we substitute

ω = √( 9.8 m/s² / 3909.87 m )

ω = √0.002506477 s²  

ω = 0.0500647 ≈ 0.05 rad/s  

we know that; 1 rad/s = 9.5493 revolution per minute

ω = 0.05 × 9.5493 RPM

ω = 0.478082 RPM  

1 rpm = 60 rph  

so  

ω = 0.478082 × 60

ω = 28.6849  revolutions per hour  

Therefore, the required revolution per hour is 28.6849

Is this statement true or false?
RSB [31]

Answer:

Places at the same latitude may have very different climates if one is on a coast and one is inland. On the coast, the climate is influenced by warm moist air from the ocean. A coastal climate is usually mild. ... Farther inland, the climate is influenced by cold or hot air from the land.

Explanation:

Hopefully its correct!

In what climates would you expect soil to form fastest? Why?
enyata [817]

Answer:

Soils develop faster in warm, moist climates and slowest in cold or arid ones. Rainfall is one of the most important climate factors in soil formation.

| A 1.0 kg stone is dropped from a bridge 100 m above a canyon. What will be the kinetic energy of the stone after it
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

Option D

490 J

Explanation:

When at a height of 100 am above and released, the ball initially posses only potential energy. When it falls, some potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.

Initial potential energy= mgh where m is the mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity and h is height. Substituting 1 Kg for m, 9.81 for g and 100 m for h then

PE initial = 1*9.81*100= 981 J

At 50 m, PE will be 1*9.81*50=490.5 J

Subtracting PE at 50 m from initial PE we get the energy that has been converted to kinetic energy hence

981-490.5= 490.5 J

Approximately, 490 J
