A busy chipmunk runs back and forth along a straight line of acorns that has been set out between his burrow and a nearby tree.

At some instant the chipmunk moves with a velocity of -1.15 m/s. Then, 2.11 s later, it moves at a velocity of 1.63 m/s. What is the chipmunk's average acceleration during the 2.11-s time interval in m/s^2?

Answer: a = 1.32m/s2

Therefore, the average acceleration is 1.32m/s2

Explanation:

Acceleration is the rate of change in the velocity per time

a = change in velocity/time

a = ∆v/t

average acceleration a = (v2 -v1)/t. ....1

Given;

Final velocity v2 = 1.63m/s

Initial velocity v1 = -1.15ms

time taken t = 2.11s

Substituting into eqn 1

a = [1.63 - (-1.15)]/2.11

a = (1.63+1.15)/2.11

a = 2.78/2.11

a = 1.32m/s2

Therefore, the average acceleration is 1.32m/s2

A particular planet has a moment of inertia of 9.74 × 1037 kg ⋅ m2 and a mass of 5.98 × 1024 kg. Based on these values, what is
malfutka [58]

Answer:  A) 6.38(10)^{6} m

Explanation:

The equation for the moment of inertia I of a sphere is:

I=\frac{2}{5}mr^{2} (1)

Where:

I=9.74(10)^{37}kg m^{2} is the moment of inertia of the planet (assumed with the shape of a sphere)

m=5.98(10)^{24}kg is the mass of the planet

r is the radius of the planet

Isolating r from (1):

r=\sqrt{\frac{5I}{2m}} (2)

Solving:

r=\sqrt{\frac{5(9.74(10)^{37}kg m^{2})}{2(5.98(10)^{24}kg)}} (3)

Finally:

r=6381149.077m \approx 6.38(10)^{6} m

Therefore, the correct option is A.

Max ran 100 feet in 10 seconds.
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

for max :

100 feet in 10 secs

for molly :

60 feet in 5 secs = 120 feet in 10 secs

so, molly ran farther in the same time interval i.e. covered 120 feet where as Max covered 100 feet

Alternative sources of energy include : geothermal
baherus [9]

Answer:

All of the above

Explanation:

The correct answer is option E (All of the above)

All the options are alternative source of energy.

The option given are not the traditional way (energy production from coal) of extracting energy as the loss of natural resources does not take place in these source of energy.

energy extracted from wind,  solar light , hydrogen ,etc are the source of energy  the alternative source of production of energy because do not exploit the natural resources, reduce the carbon emission and energy produced by them is clean energy.

A boy whirls a stone in a horizontal circle of radius 1.1 m and at height 2.1 m above ground level. The string breaks, and the s
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

212.8 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

Time taken by stone to cover horizontal distance

t=\sqrt{\frac {2h}{g}} where t is time, h is height of whirling the stone in horizontal circle, g is gravitational constant, Substituting h for 2.1 m and g for 9.81

t=\sqrt{\frac {2*2.1}{9.81}}= 0.654654 seconds

t=0.65 s

Velocity, v= distance/time

v=10/0.65= 15.27525 m/s

v=15.3 m/s

a=\frac {v^{2}}{r} where r is radius of circle, substituting r with 1.1m

a=\frac {15.3^{2}}{1.1}

a=212.8 m/s^{2}

Therefore, centripetal acceleration is 212.8 m/s^{2}
