Explanation:

The object is moving along the parabola y = x² and is at the point (√2, 2).  Because the object is changing directions, it has a centripetal acceleration towards the center of the circle of curvature.

First, we need to find the radius of curvature.  This is given by the equation:

R = [1 + (y')²]^(³/₂) / |y"|

y' = 2x and y" = 2:

R = [1 + (2x)²]^(³/₂) / |2|

R = (1 + 4x²)^(³/₂) / 2

At x = √2:

R = (1 + 4(√2)²)^(³/₂) / 2

R = (9)^(³/₂) / 2

R = 27 / 2

R = 13.5

So the centripetal force is:

F = m v² / r

F = m (5)² / 13.5

F = 1.85 m

Answer:

Please, in the Explanation section you will find the explanation of the answer.

Explanation:

The exercise shows the continental United States and 3 cities used in the study carried out by Murdock. It can be said that the sample taken is part of the objective. There are several inconsistencies in Murdock's argument: the first has to do with the fact that the sample that was taken cannot represent the entire American population. A much larger, scientifically calculated sample would be required. The second is that their study did not take into account small cities or people living in the interior of the United States.

What's the opposite of vaporization
Nesterboy [21]
Condensation. Remember, Vaporization happens when energy is taken in (enfothermic) the opposite will be the process that releases energy ( exothermic) which will be condensation. Put ice in a glass of water. the ice melts, taking in energy from the water in the glass, which in turn takes heat energy away from the vapor in the surrounding air, thus causing the water vapor in the air to condense.
