Answer:

From the movement of sunspots, Galileo discovered that sun rotate s on its own axis.

Explanation:

All the sunspots are traveling across the Sun's head. This movement is part of the Sun's general rotation of its axis. Observations also suggest that the Sun does not rotate like a solid body, but rotates differently because it is a gas. Actually the Sun is spinning faster at its equator than at at its poles. The Sun rotates once every 24 days at its equator, but only once every 35 days at its poles. We learn this by observing the movement of sunspots and other solar features pass through the Sun.

Two point charges are separated by 10 cm, with an attractive force between them of 15 N. Find the force between them when they a

suter [353]

Answer:

(a) the force is 8.876 N

(b) the magnitude of each charge is 4.085 μC

Explanation:

Part (a)

Given;

coulomb's constant, K = 8.99 x 10⁹ N.m²/C²

distance between two charges, r = 10 cm = 0.1 m

force between the two charges, F = 15 N

when the distance between the charges changes to 13 cm (0.13 m)

force between the two charges, F = ?

Apply Coulomb's law;

$F = \frac{Kq_1q_2}{r^2} \\\\let \ Kq_1q_2 = C\\\\F =\frac{C}{r^2} \\\\C = Fr^2\\\\F_1r_1^2 = F_2r_2^2\\\\F_2 =\frac{F_1r_1^2}{r_2^2} \\\\F_2 = \frac{15*0.1^2}{0.13^2} \\\\F_2 = 8.876 \ N$

Part (b)

the magnitude of each charge, if they have equal magnitude

$F = \frac{KQ^2}{r^2}$

where;

F is the force between the charges

K is Coulomb's constant

Q is the charge

r is the distance between the charges

$F = \frac{KQ^2}{r^2} \\\\Q = \sqrt{\frac{Fr^2}{K} } \\\\Q = \sqrt{\frac{15*(0.1)^2}{8.99*10^9} } = 4.085 *10^{-6} \ C\\\\Q = 4.085 \ \mu C$

An automobile with a standard differential turns sharply to the left. The left driving wheel turns on a 20-m radius. Distance be

Inessa05 [86]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Inner wheel Radius = 20 m,

Distance between left and right wheel = 1.5m,

Let us assume speed of drive shaft is N rpm.

Formula to calculate angular velocity is as follows.

Angular velocity of automobile = w = $\frac{V}{R}$

where, V = linear velocity of automobile m/min,

R = turning radius from automobile center in meter

In the given case, angular velocity remains same for inner and outer wheel but there is change in linear velocity of inner wheel and outer wheel.

Now, we assume that

u = linear velocity of inner wheel

and, u' = linear velocity of outer wheel.

Formula for angular velocity of inner wheel w = ,

Formula for angular velocity of outer wheel w =

Now, for inner wheels

w =

= $\frac{u}{(R - d)}$

u = $V \times \frac{(R - d)}{R}$

= $V \times (1 - \frac{d}{R})$

If radius of wheel is r it will cover distance in one min.

Since, velocity of wheel is u it will cover distance u in unit time(min)

Thus, u = $2\pi rn$ = $V \times (1 - \frac{d}{R})$

Now, rotation per minute of inner wheel is calculated as follows.

n = $\frac{V}{2 \pi r \times (1 - \frac{d}{R})}$

= $\frac{V}{2 \pi r \times (1 - \frac{0.75}{20})}$ (since 2d = 1.5m given, d = 0.75m),

= $\frac{V}{r} \times 0.1532$

So, rotation per minute of outer wheel; n' =

= $\frac{V}{2 \pi r \times (1 + \frac{0.75}{20})}$

= $\frac{V}{r} \times 0.1651$

What type of acceleration does an object moving with constant speed in a circular path experience?Select one:A) constant acceler

olga_2 [115]

ANSWER:

D) centripetal acceleration.

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

When a body performs a uniform circular motion, the direction of the velocity vector changes at every instant. This variation is experienced by the linear vector, due to a force called centripetal, directed towards the center of the circumference that gives rise to the centripetal acceleration.

Therefore, the answer is centripetal acceleration.
