Answer:

109.385m

Explanation:

In 1 day, the hour hand travels 2 circles, or 4π rad in angular. The distance it travels is its angle times the radius

7.4 * 4π = 93 mm

In 1 day, the minute hand travels 24*60 = 1440 circles, or 1440 * 2π = 2880π rad in angular. The distance it travels is

12.1 * 2880π = 109478 mm

So the distance traveled by the tip of the minute hand that exceed the distance traveled by the tip of the hour hand is

109478 - 93 = 109385 mm or 109.385 m

I need help, please answer
Burka [1]

This being a perfect collision means no energy is lost during the collision. Because this question asks for speed and not velocity, the speed will be the same because the final energy is the same. The speed after the collision would therefore be 1.27 m/s.

Answer:

1/ How do scientists determine the elements present in different stars?

KEY WORD for the main idea: Analysis of the starlight.

Answer: Scientists can identify what elements present in different stars by analysing the starlight.

Note: The "starlight" = spectral lines. Astronomers can can identify what kinds of stuff are in stars from the lines they find in star's spectrum. From spectral lines astronomers can determine not only the element, but the temperature and density of that element in the star.

2/ What happens to a star when the fuel for its nuclear fusion reactions is exhausted?

KEY WORD for the main idea: generate light from energy

Answer: A star generates energy through nuclear fusion; this energy is released a light and heat.

Note: The energy source for all stars is nuclear fusion. Stars spend most of their lives repetitively compressing two hydrogen atoms into a single helium atom - plus a lot of energy, which is released as light and heat. A normal star that has exhausted the nuclear fuel in its interior, its outer layers have expanded, and it has become a red giant.

....

3/ Why aren't stars and galaxies spread out evenly across the universe?

KEY WORD for the main idea: Gravitational attraction

Answer: Stars and Galaxies aren't evenly distributed uniformly throughout the universe, because of the existance of gravity.

Note: Gravity, as one of the fundamental forces of the universe, is the powerful force that glues our universe together. This is the one that causes every object in the universe to attract every other object. One of the most noticeable effects of gravity in the solar system is the orbit of the planets.

A ball of mass m = 0.1kg is connected to a rope of length L = 1.2 m. The ball is swung around in a vertical circle and ball is m
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

The speed of the ball is approximately 5.94 m/s

The Tension of the string at the bottom is 3.92 N

Explanation:

We need to find the speed of the ball, which is constant due to the fact that we are in a uniform circular motion. Notice as well that the speed of the ball is the magnitude of the tangential velocity "v_t" (vector that changes direction with the position of the ball but doesn't change magnitude in this case).

We analyze first the top position of the circular motion, for which information on the tension of the string is given (see first free body diagram in the attached picture).  We are told that the tension at the top of the movement equals twice the force of gravity on the ball's mass: T - 2*m*g = 1.96 N. And we know that there are two forces acting on the ball in that position (illustrated with the green arrows pointing down): one is the ball's weight due to gravity, and the other is the string's tension. So we can write Newton's second law for this situation:

F_{net}= T_{top}+W\\F_{net}=2\,W+W\\F_{net}=3\,W\\F_{net}=2.94 N\\

Newton's second law tells us that the net force should equal the mass of the ball times its acceleration (F = m * a), and in this motion, the acceleration is the centripetal acceleration. Therefore weuse this equation to solve for the centripetal acceleration of the ball:

m\,a_c=2.94\,N\\a_c=\frac{2.94\,N}{0.1\,kg} \\a_c=29.4\,\frac{m}{s^2}

The centripetal acceleration is defined as the square of the tangential velocity divided the radius of the circular motion. Then we use it to derive the magnitude of the tangential velocity (speed of the ball):

a_c=\frac{v^2}{R} \\29.4\,\frac{m}{s^2} =\frac{v_t^2}{R} \\v_t^2=29.4\,(1.2)\,\frac{m^2}{s^2} \\v_t=5.94\,\frac{m}{s}

So we have found the speed of the ball.

Now we focus our attention to the bottom of the motion, and again use Newton's second law to solve for the string tension (see second free body diagram in the attached picture).

We notice here that the tension and the weight are acting in opposite directions, so we have such into account when finding the net force on the ball, and then solve for the tension knowing the value of the centripetal acceleration (recall that the magnitude of the tangential velocity is the same because of the uniform circular motion).

F_{net}= T_{bot}-W\\m\,a_c=T_{bot}-0.98\,N\\2.94\,N=T_{bot}-0.98\,N\\T_{bot}=(2.94+0.98)N\\T_{bot}=3.92\,N
