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

If an object of mass 70kg falls from a height of 500 m, what is the maximum velocity of the object?
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

We can use this expression to find the maximum velocity or velocity just before touching the ground. For this problem, v = √2×10×500 = 100m/s.

Give an example of a compound machine. Explain how at least two simple machines are part of this complex machine.
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

Bicycle

Explanation:

A compound machine is a machine which is a combination of simple machines.

Simple machines are like the pulley, inclined plane or a screw.

Suppose a bicycle is considered, it has more than one simple machine combined together, for it to work. Wheel and axle is one of them and the beam which is pivoted at a fixed hinge is another simple machine in it.

The pedals of the bicycle function as the lever.
