Answer:

Revolution of moon around the earth

Explanation:

The revolution of moon around the earth.

The gravitational force acting on the moon is balanced by the centripetal force acting on the moon.

Gravitational force of earth on moon is given by

$F = G \frac{M m}{r^{2}}$

where, M be the mass of earth, m be the mass of moon and r be the distance between moon and earth.

The centripetal force acting on moon is

$F = \frac{m v^{2}}{r}$

These two forces balance each other and then the moon revolves around the earth in fixed orbit.

The price of coffee fell sharply last month, while the quantity sold remained the same. Five people suggest various explanations

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

France. True Supply increased and demand did not adapt

Explanation:

If the price of coffee decreases it may be due to two causes

- Increase of the offer

- decrease in demand

- both simultaneously.

Let's examine the statement. They tell us that the amount sold remained constant, so there is no decrease in demand, therefore the only cause may be the increase in supply.

Let's check the answers

Antonio False. The demand is constant.

Carolina. False. The demand is constant.

Dmitri False. The demand is constant.

France. True Supply increased and demand did not adapt

Jake. False. Demand did not adapt to the increase in supply

A car is travelling to the right with a speed of 40 m/s when the driver slams on the brakes. The car skids for 4 s with constant

vazorg [7]

Answer:

10m/s^2

Explanation:

Given data

velocity= 40m/s

time= 4 seconds

Acceleration a =????

We know that

a= velocity/time

substitute

a=40/4

a= 10m/s^2

Hence the acceleration will be 10m/s^2

Would the frequency of the angular simple harmonic motion (SHM) of the balance wheel increase or decrease if the dimensions of t

storchak [24]

Answer:

Yes the frequency of the angular simple harmonic motion (SHM) of the balance wheel increases three times if the dimensions of the balance wheel reduced to one-third of original dimensions.

Explanation:

Considering the complete question attached in figure below.

Time period for balance wheel is:

$T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{I}{K}}$

$I=mR^{2}$

m = mass of balance wheel

R = radius of balance wheel.

Angular frequency is related to Time period as:

$\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}\\\omega=\sqrt{\frac{K}{I}} \\\omega=\sqrt{\frac{K}{mR^{2}}$

As dimensions of new balance wheel are one-third of their original values

$R_{new}=\frac{R}{3}$

$\omega_{new}=\sqrt{\frac{K}{mR_{new}^{2}}}\\\\\omega_{new}=\sqrt{\frac{K}{m(\frac{R}{3})^{2}}}\\\\\omega_{new}={3}\sqrt{\frac{K}{mR^{2}}}\\\\\omega_{new}={3}\omega$
