Galileo is geocentric, just like all the rest of us.

A lady bug is sitting on the bottom of a can while you twirl it overhead on a string that is 65.0

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

The linear speed of the ladybug is 4.1 m/s

Explanation:

First of all, we need to find the angular speed of the lady bug. This is given by:

$\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}$

where

T is the period of revolution

The period of revolution is the time taken by the ladybug to complete one revolution: in this case, since it does 1 revolution every second, the period is 1 second:

T = 1 s

Therefore, the angular speed is

$\omega=\frac{2\pi}{1 s}=6.28 rad/s$

Now we can find the linear speed of the ladybug, which is given by

$v=\omega r$

where:

$\omega=6.28 rad/s$ is the angular speed

r = 65.0 cm = 0.65 m is the distance of the ladybug from the axis of rotation

Substituting, we find

$v=(6.28)(0.65)=4.1 m/s$

To measure the strength of an earthquake, you can use either a _____ scale or _____ scale.

allsm [11]

To measure the strength of an earthquake, you can use either a Richter scale or Mercalli scale. Richter scale uses the amplitued of the wave and the distance from the source. Mercalli scale uses observations of people and is not considered to be scientific as Richter scale.

27 degrees to kelvin, 20 dg to milligrams, and 3 to decimeters.

Gala2k [10]

K = C + 273, so 27°C = 27+273 = 300 K

1 dg = 100 mg, so 20 dg = 20×100 = 2,000 mg

A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically, owing to waves on the surface of the water. It takes 2.5 s

gulaghasi [49]

(a) 0.96 m/s

The period of the wave corresponds to the time taken for one complete oscillation of the boat, from the highest point to the highest point again. Since the time between the highest point and the lowest point is 2.5 s, the period is twice this time:

$T=2\cdot 2.5 s=5.0 s$

The frequency of the waves is the reciprocal of the period:

$f=\frac{1}{T}=\frac{1}{5.0 s}=0.20 Hz$

The wavelength instead is just the distance between two consecutive crests, so

$\lambda=4.8 m$

And the wave speed is given by:

$v=\lambda f=(4.8 m)(0.20 Hz)=0.96 m/s$

(b) 0.265 m

The total distance between the highest point of the wave and its lowest point is

d = 0.53 m

The amplitude is just the maximum displacement of the wave from the equilibrium position, so it is equal to half of this distance. So, the amplitude is

$A=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{0.53 m}{2}=0.265 m$

(c) Amplitude: 0.15 m, wave speed: same as before

In this case, the amplitude of the wave would be lower. In fact,

d = 0.30 m

So the amplitude would be

$A=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{0.30 m}{2}=0.15 m$

Instead, the wave speed would not change, since neither the frequency nor the wavelength of the wave have changed.

What happens when water at 4° celsius is heated further?

Elden [556K]

Answer:

please give me brainlist and follow

Explanation:

4 degrees C turns out to be the temperature at which liquid water has the highest density. If you heat it or cool it, it will expand. ... Ice floats on top of lakes, preventing evaporation (and convection in the frozen layer), and lakes stay liquid underneath, allowing fish and other life to survive.
