Hello there.
<span>
At ground level g is 9.8m/s^2. Suppose the earth started to increase its angular velocity. How long would a day be when people on the equator were just 'thrown off'? Why is the expression 'thrown off' a bad one ?

People would not be thrown off.

Let s = rate of rotation 
<span>Let r = radius of earth = 6,400km </span>
<span>Then solving (s^2) r = g will give the desired rate, from which length of day is inferred. </span>
<span>People would not be thrown off. They would simply move eastward in a straight line while the curved surface of earth fell away from beneath them.</span>

Which formulas might be used to find the velocity based on a position-time graph?
Alex787 [66]
The formula to get the velocity is V=D/T. First you need to determine the distance and time at a certain point and plug it into the equation and that will be your velocity at that point. To get it between two points you complete the directions two times and find the average or use the slope formula, slope = rise/run; slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

Godric and Savos are a few meters apart, at one end of the football field. Peter is at the other end of the field. Godric and Sa
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

From Savos point of view, Gadros appear not to be moving

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The distance between Godric and Savos = A few meters

The location of Godric and Savos = One end of the field

The location pf Peter = The other end pf the field

The speed with which Godric and Savos are moving towards Peter = 4 m/s

Let the positive x-direction be the direction in which Godric and Savos are moving

Therefore;

The speed and direction with which Godric is moving = The speed and direction with which Savos is moving = 4·i m/s

From Savos point of view, the relative speed with which Godric is moving = (The speed and direction in which Godric is moving) - (The speed and direction in which Savos is moving) = 4·i m/s - 4·i m/s = 0 m/s

Therefore, from Savos point of view, the relative speed with which Godric is moving = 0 m/s or Gadros appears stationary or not to moving.

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

V=15.3 m/s

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we have to use the energy conservation theorem:

U_e+K_i+U_{gi}+W_{friction}=K_f+U_{gf}

the elastic potencial energy is given by:

U_e=\frac{1}{2}*k*x^2\\U_e=\frac{1}{2}*1100N/m*(4m)^2\\U_e=8800J

The work is defined as:

W_{friction}=F_f*d*cos(\theta)\\W_{friction}=40N*2.5m*cos(180)\\W_{friction}=-100J

this work is negative because is opposite to the movement.

The gravitational potencial energy at 2.5 m aboves is given by:

U_{gf}=m*g*h\\U_{gf}=60kg*9.8*2.5\\U_{gf}=1470J

the gravitational potential energy at the ground and the kinetic energy at the begining are 0.

8800J+0+0+-100J=\frac{1}{2}*62kg*v^2+1470J\\v=\sqrt{\frac{2(8800J-100J-1470J)}{62kg}}\\v=15.3m/s

When scientific work can be duplicated it is proves a hypothesis correct is reliable Does not require evaluation
Nitella [24]
When scientific work can be duplicated it is proves a hypothesis is reliable.

For the record, in science, hypotheses can never be proven correct, and they always require evaluation. Even if a hypothesis still holds after being tested many times, it will always remain open to question.
