The people living around the equator experience acceleration. Acceleration is the change in speed or/and direction. When on a rotating body, the speed does not change it is only the direction that changes as it rotates.When on a rotating body you do not have to change speed but only direction. In a normal situation when you are traveling on a circle you will never have a straight line.

William Ferrel:
balu736 [363]

Answer:

William Ferrel created a tide-prediction machine.

Explanation:

  • William Ferrel create a machine in late 19th century that was the best combination of mechanical parts and computer coding.
  • It was a mechanical analog computer that could predict the ebb of tides and even the height of tides that could be irregular.
  • It was widely used for marine networks and navigation. Later on many improvisations and additional features were added on it.
  • During the world war times, this tide prediction machine was of great use for military purpose.

You are standing on a street corner with your friend. You then travel 14.0 m due west across the street and into your apartment
Margarita [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall express each displacement vectorially , i for each unit displacement towards east , j for northward displacement and k for vertical displacement .

14 m due west = - 14 i

22.0 m upward in the elevator = 22 k

12 m north = 12 j

6.00 m east = 6 i

Total displacement = - 14 i + 22 k + 12 j + 6 i

D = - 8 i + 12 j + 22 k

magnitude = √ ( 8² + 12² + 22² )

= √ ( 64 + 144 + 484 )

= √ 692

= 26.3 m

Net displacement from starting point = 26.3 m .

What is the distance from axis about which a uniform, balsa-wood sphere will have the same moment of inertia as does a thin-wall
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

D_{s} ≈ 2.1 R

Explanation:

The moment of inertia of the bodies can be calculated by the equation

     I = ∫ r² dm

For bodies with symmetry this tabulated, the moment of inertia of the center of mass

Sphere               Is_{cm} = 2/5 M R²

Spherical shell   Ic_{cm} = 2/3 M R²

The parallel axes theorem allows us to calculate the moment of inertia with respect to different axes, without knowing the moment of inertia of the center of mass

    I = I_{cm} + M D²

Where M is the mass of the body and D is the distance from the center of mass to the axis of rotation

Let's start with the spherical shell, axis is along a diameter

     D = 2R

    Ic = Ic_{cm} + M D²

    Ic = 2/3 MR² + M (2R)²

    Ic = M R² (2/3 + 4)

    Ic = 14/3 M R²

The sphere

    Is =Is_{cm} + M [D_{s}²

    Is = Ic

    2/5 MR² + M D_{s}² = 14/3 MR²

    D_{s}² = R² (14/3 - 2/5)

    D_{s} = √ (R² (64/15)

    D_{s} = 2,066 R
