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.

zepelin [54]
The correct option is B.
Sunglasses are designed to block polarized light. If you are driving toward the sun,  most of the sun's glare will be coming to you horizontally, thus, the best sunglasses to wear is the one, that will block the horizontal glare and allow only the vertical glare to pass through.

In case A below, a 1 kg solid sphere is released from rest at point S. It rolls without slipping down the ramp shown, and is lau
mestny [16]

Answer:

the block reaches higher than the sphere

\frac{y_{sphere}} {y_block} = 5/7

Explanation:

We are going to solve this interesting problem

A) in this case a sphere rolls on the ramp, let's find the speed of the center of mass at the exit of the ramp

Let's use the concept of conservation of energy

starting point. At the top of the ramp

         Em₀ = U = m g y₁

final point. At the exit of the ramp

         Em_f = K + U = ½ m v² + ½ I w² + m g y₂

notice that we include the translational and rotational energy, we assume that the height of the exit ramp is y₂

energy is conserved

          Em₀ = Em_f

         m g y₁ = ½ m v² + ½ I w² + m g y₂

angular and linear velocity are related

        v = w r

the moment of inertia of a sphere is

         I = \frac{2}{5} m r²

we substitute

         m g (y₁ - y₂) = ½ m v² + ½ (\frac{2}{5} m r²) (\frac{v}{r})²

         m g h = ½ m v² (1 + \frac{2}{5})

where h is the difference in height between the two sides of the ramp

h = y₂ -y₁

         mg h = \frac{7}{5} (\frac{1}{2} m v²)

         v = √5/7  √2gh

This is the exit velocity of the vertical movement of the sphere

         v_sphere = 0.845 √2gh

B) is the same case, but for a box without friction

   starting point

          Em₀ = U = mg y₁

   final point

          Em_f = K + U = ½ m v² + m g y₂

          Em₀ = Em_f

          mg y₁ = ½ m v² + m g y₂

          m g (y₁ -y₂) = ½ m v²

          v = √2gh

this is the speed of the box

          v_box = √2gh

to know which body reaches higher in the air we can use the kinematic relations

          v² = v₀² - 2 g y

at the highest point v = 0

           y = vo₀²/ 2g

for the sphere

           y_sphere = 5/7 2gh / 2g

           y_esfera = 5/7 h

for the block

           y_block = 2gh / 2g

            y_block = h

       

therefore the block reaches higher than the sphere

         \frac{y_{sphere}} {y_bolck} = 5/7
