Answer:

People were particularly motivated by one of the candidates

Explanation:

The voter turnout in 2008 spiked because people were particularly motivated by Barrack Obama. His running for presidential position represented a <em>"generational change."</em> So, this means that many of the voters, especially the African-Americans ages 18 to 25 years old became interested in registering in order to vote.

Such kind of voter turnout spike is said to have also occurred during the candidacy of John F. Kennedy, where the voter turnout was<em> 62.8 percent.</em> This was because Kennedy was a <em>charismatic leader</em> who also represented a <u>generational change</u>.

So, this explains the answer.

A solid sphere has a radius of 0.200 m and a mass of 150.0 kg. how much work is required to get the sphere rolling with an angul
Allisa [31]

Here in this case we can use work energy theorem

As per work energy theorem

Work done by all forces = Change in kinetic Energy of the object

Total kinetic energy of the solid sphere is ZERO initially as it is given at rest.

Final total kinetic energy is sum of rotational kinetic energy and translational kinetic energy

KE = \frac{1}{2}Iw^2 +\frac{1}{2} mv^2

also we know that

I = \frac{2}{5}mR^2

w= \frac{v}{R}

Now kinetic energy is given by

KE = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{2}{5}mR^2)w^2 +\frac{1}{2} m(Rw)^2

KE = \frac{1}{5}mR^2w^2 +\frac{1}{2} mR^2w^2

KE = \frac{7}{10}mR^2w^2

KE = \frac{7}{10}*150*(0.200)^2(50)^2

KE = 10500 J

Now by work energy theorem

Work done = 10500 - 0 = 10500 J

So in the above case work done on sphere is 10500 J

The speed of light in a material is found to be 2.07 x 108 m/s. What is the most likely material from the options below if the s
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

1.3636

Explanation:

Write the expression for the refractive index.

n=c/v

c= speed of light in air

v= speed of light in material

=(3×10^8 m/s)/(2.2×10^8 m/s)

 =1.3636

You have family members and the relationship you observed in childhood affects the quality of your current relationships?
Ghella [55]

Answer:

Yes, the relationships you observe in childhood affects the quality of your current relationships.

Explanation:

The saying,<em> "Children see, children do,"</em> is evidently true. A child's lifestyle and future relationships are greatly affected by the kind of relationships you allow him to see. Thus, it is very important that parents become role models for their kids.

For example, when your parents handle stress by shouting at each other, then most likely you'd also handle stress the same way in the future. So,<em> it is essential that the role models will show the child how to handle stress positively.</em> The experiences that children have at a young age affects their adult life.<u> It influences them and shapes them into who they will become.</u>

If people at home show positive relationships with each other and also supports a child regarding his education, then the child will most likely set positive relationships with his peers and achieve higher degree standards.

Thus, this explains the answer.

Neko [114]

Answer: 185.5672566

Explanation:  The friction is not relevant

Normal reaction is the force perpendicular to the surface.

this force resists the downwards forces applied which are gravity and a component of the applied force.

Which best explains how the diffraction pattern observed in young’s experiment supports the wave theory of light?.
KIM [24]

Answer: the airy pattern can only arise from wave propagation

Explanation:if particles went in straight lines through a slit, they would progate linearly and not interfere. The airy pattern arises from diffraction as waves interfere, producing peaks (constructive interference where peaks of waves from each slit coincide) and troughs (destructive interference where peaks and troughs of waves from each slit cancel out). If intensity rather than field is measured nodes occur where 0 values line up instead of troughs
