A paper pinwheel is spinning in the wind.
Which statement is correct about the forces responsible for the rotation?
The components of gravity and the force of wind that point through the pivot are responsible for the rotation.
Only the perpendicular component of wind is responsible for the rotation, because gravity points downward.
Only the perpendicular component of gravity is responsible for the rotation, because wind points toward the pivot.
The perpendicular components of gravity and the force of wind are responsible for the rotation.
Answer:
Only the perpendicular component of gravity is responsible for the rotation because wind points toward the pivot.
Explanation:
A pinwheel is a plaything that is made up of paper that is designed to spin when the wind comes in contact with it. The paper is held fast to its axle by a pin which enables it to spin.
Therefore, if the pinwheel is spun anti-clockwise, it brings electrical energy, converting the wind energy and <u>only the perpendicular component of gravity is responsible for the rotation because wind points toward the pivot. </u>
This is true. Hope this helped:)
Answer:
The right option is (d) substance undergoing a change of state
Explanation:
Latent Heat: Latent heat is the heat required to change the state of a substance without change in temperature. Latent heat is also known as hidden heat because the heat is not visible. The unit is Joules (J).
Latent heat is divided into two:
⇒ Latent Heat of fusion
⇒ Latent Heat of vaporization.
Latent Heat of fusion: This is the heat energy required to convert a substance from its solid form to its liquid form without change in temperature. E.g (Ice) When ice is heated, its temperature rise steadily until a certain temperature is reached when the solid begins to melts.
Latent Heat of vaporization: This is the heat required to change a liquid substance to vapor without a change in temperature. The latent heat depend on the mass of the liquid and the nature of the liquid. E.g When water is heated from a known temperature its boiling point (100°C) When more heat is supplied to its boiling temperature, it continue to boil without a change in temperature.
From The above, Latent heat brings about a change of state of a substance at a steady temperature.
The right option is (d) substance undergoing a change of state
Answer:
(a) Radius of orbit will be 
(b) Earth gravitational force will be 
(C) Height will be 
Explanation:
We have given
Mass of the earth, 
Mass of the satellite, m = 5600 kg
Radius of earth, 
Time period T = 6200 sec
We know that 
Now
(a) We know that 


Radius of the orbit 
(b)
Force 
(c)
Altitude 
Use the kinematic equation,
Vf^2 = Vi^2 + 2aX
31.5^2 = 11.6^2 + 2(5.22)(x)
Solve for x
Answer: 82.2m
