From Doppler shifts of the spectral lines in the light coming from the east and west edges of the Sun, astronomers find that the

radial velocities of the two edges differ by about 4 km/s, meaning that the Sun’s rotation rate is 2 km/s. Find the approximate period of rotation of the Sun in days. The circumference of a sphere is given by 2πR, where R is the radius of the sphere

Answer:

T= 37 day

Explanation:

To solve this exercise we will use the definition of angular velocity as the angular distance, which for a full period is 2pi between time.

    w = T / t

The relationship between angular and linear velocity is

    v = w r

    w = v / r

We substitute everything in the first equation

    v / r = 2π / t

    t = 2π r / v

Let's reduce to the SI system

    V = 2 km / s (1000m / 1km) = 2 10³ m / s

    r= R = 6.96 10⁸ m

Let's calculate

    t = 2π 6.96 10⁸/2 10³

    t = 3.2 10⁶ s

    T = t = 3.2 10⁶ s ( 1h/3600s) (1 day/24 h)

    T= 37 day

The block in the figure below has a mass of 5.1 kg and it rests on an incline of angle . You pull on the rope with a force F = 3
viktelen [127]

42.9°

Explanation:

Let's assume that the x-axis is aligned with the incline and the positive direction is up the incline. We can then apply Newton's 2nd law as follows:

x:\;\;\;\;F - mg\sin{\theta} = 0\;\;\;\;

\Rightarrow mg\sin{\theta} = F

Note that the net force is zero because the block is moving with a constant speed when the angle of the incline is set at \theta. Solving for the angle, we get

\sin{\theta} = \dfrac{F}{mg}

or

\theta = \sin^{-1}\left(\dfrac{F}{mg}\right)

\;\;\;=  \sin^{-1}\left[\dfrac{34\:\text{N}}{(5.1\:\text{kg})(9.8\:\text{m/s}^2)}\right]

\;\;\;=42.9°
