Time taken to complete on complete circle = 2.3 seconds

Radius of circle (r) = 0.85 (length of each arm)

Speed of skaters = \frac{Distance}{time}

Speed = \frac{2\pi r}{t}

Speed = \frac{2 \times 3.14 \times 0.85}{2.3}

Speed (v) = 2.32 m/s

Let the force applied by one skater on the other be F

F(net) = centripetal force

F = \frac{mv^2}{r}

F = \frac{65 \times 2.32^2}{0.85}

F = 411.59 Newtons

Hence, the force applied by each skater on the other is: F = 411.59 Newtons

We have to
 m = 65 kg
 r = 0.85 m
 t = 2.3 s
 The perimeter of the circle is given by:
 P = 2 * pi * r
 P = 2 * pi * (0.85 m)
 P = 5.34 m
 Then, by definition, the distance equals the speed by time:
 d = v * t
 v = d / t
 v = (5.34 m) / (2.3 s)
 v = 2.32 m / s
 Then, to find the radial acceleration, we must use the speed found and the radius of the circle:
 a = v ^ 2 / r
 a = (2.32 m / s) ^ 2 / (0.85 m)
 a = (5.38 m ^ 2 / s ^ 2) / (0.85 m)
 a = 6.32 m / s ^ 2
 Finally, we have that by definition the force is equal to the mass by acceleration:
 F = m * a
 F = (65 kg) * (6.32 m / s ^ 2)
 F = 410.8 N
 answer
 F = 410.8 N

The ratio of carbon-14 to nitrogen-14 is an artifact is 1:3. Given that half-life of carbon-14 is 5730years, how old is the arti
dusya [7]

Answer:

9155 years old

Explanation:

We use the following expression for the decay of a substance:

N = N_0\,\,e^{-k*t}

So we first estimate the value of k knowing that the half-life of the C14 is 5730 years:

N = N_0\,\,e^{-k*t}\\N_0/2=N_0\,\,e^{-k*5730}\\1/2 = e^{-k*5730}\\ln(1/2)=-k*5730\\k= 0.00012

so, now we can estimate the age of the artifact by solving for"t" in the equation:

1/3=e^{-0.00012*t}\\ln(1/3)= -0.00012*t\\t=9155. 102

which we can round to 9155 years old.

Explanation:

Momentum conservation

m2v_0+2mv_0=mv_1+2mv_2 \quad (1/m) \quad 4v_0=v_1+2v_2\\

Kinetic energy conservation

If all this energy is added to 50 kg of water (the amount of water in a 165-lb person) at 37 ∘C, what is the final state of the
Reika [66]

Answer:

Vapors

Explanation:

We take into account that all the energy from the lightning has been transformed into steam.

\Delta U = Q -  W\\Q = mC \Delta T\\Q = mL

We calculate the amount of energy required by water to convert into steam.

Q_{water} = 50 \times \times 4180 \times (100-37)\\= 1.132 \times 10^7 \ J

Q_{change\ to\ steam} = 50 \times 2.256 \times 106 \\= 1.128 \times 10^8 \ J

Q_{total} = 1.132 \times 10^7 + 1.128 \times 10^8\\= 1.126 \times 10^8 \ J

From the lightning we received 10^{10} \ J of energy, out of which 1.126 \times 10^8 has been used to convert the water into steam.

Energy left = 10^{10} - 1.126 \times 10^8 = 9.88 \times 10^9 \ J

We use this energy to convert steam into vapors.

Q = \Delta E

Q = \Delta E = mc (T_{f} - T{i})\\T_{f} = \frac {\Delta E}{mc} + T_{i}\\ \\T_{f} = 100 + \frac{9.88 \times 10^{10}}{50 \times 1970}\\T_{f} = 100 + 10^8\\T_{f} = 10 ^{ \ 8} \ {^ \circ } C

With this temperature, we can easily interpret that the vapors will be dissociated in hydrogen and oxygen particles.

A child is riding a merry-go-round that is turning at 7.18 rpm. if the child is standing 4.65 m from the center of the merry-go-
Alisiya [41]
First we need to convert the angular speed from rpm to rad/s. Keeping in mind that 
1 rev= 2 \pi rad
1 min = 60 s
the angular speed is
\omega = 7.18  \frac{rev}{min} \cdot  \frac{2 \pi}{60} = 0.75 rad/s

And so now we can calculate the tangential speed of the child, which is the angular speed times the distance of the child from the center of the motion:
v= \omega r = (0.75 rad/s)(4.65 m)=3.50 m/s
