Answer: The diameter of the circular path is 2.96m

Explanation: centripetal acceleration = tangential speed^2 / radius of the circular path.

Centripetal acceleration = 2.7m/s^2

Tangential speed = 2.0m/s

Radius = 2.0^2 / 2.7 = 4/2.7

= 1.48m

Diameter = radius*2

= 1.48*2 = 2.96m.

Answer:

Chemical and Biological weathering.

Explanation:

Processes that break down and weaken earth minerals are known as weathering. Over time, this can lead to erosion, in which huge sections of rock and stone are carried away, changing landscapes. Physical weathering alters the material structure of rocks, while chemical weathering alters their chemical structure.

A soccer player kicks a 0.44 kg ball with a force of 57.6 N, what is the ball’s acceleration

noname [10]

THE BALL'S ACCELERATION IS 130.90 $\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law "the force (F) acting on an object is equal to the mass (m) of an object times its acceleration (a)", meaning that when the soccer player kicks a ball, a force is acting on the ball, therefore increasing it's acceleration

SO FOR CALCULATING THIS WE WILL USE NEWTON LAW,

FORCE = MASS × ACCELERATION

WE ARE GIVEN

FORCE = 57.6N

MASS= .44KG

SO HERE WE APPLYING FORMULA ,WE WILL GET

ACCELERATION = $\frac{FORCE}{MASS}$

ACCELERATION = $\frac{57.6N}{.44KG}$

ACCELERATION =130.90 $\frac{m}{s}$

A new planet has been discovered and given the name Planet X . The mass of Planet X is estimated to be one-half that of Earth, a

Answer:

vₐ = v_c $( \ 1 + \frac{1}{2} ( \frac{\Delta M}{M} - \frac{\Delta R}{R}) \ )$

Explanation:

To calculate the escape velocity let's use the conservation of energy

starting point. On the surface of the planet

Em₀ = K + U = ½ m v_c² - G Mm / R

final point. At a very distant point

Em_f = U = - G Mm / R₂

energy is conserved

Em₀ = Em_f

½ m v_c² - G Mm / R = - G Mm / R₂

v_c² = 2 G M (1 /R - 1 /R₂)

if we consider the speed so that it reaches an infinite position R₂ = ∞

v_c = $\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R} }$

now indicates that the mass and radius of the planet changes slightly

M ’= M + ΔM = M ( $1+ \frac{\Delta M}{M}$ )

R ’= R + ΔR = R ( $1 + \frac{\Delta R}{R}$ )

we substitute

vₐ = $\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R} } \ \frac{\sqrt{1+ \frac{\Delta M}{M} } }{ \sqrt{1+ \frac{ \Delta R}{R} } }$

let's use a serial expansion

√(1 ±x) = 1 ± ½ x +…

we substitute

vₐ = v_ c ( $(1 + \frac{1}{2} \frac{\Delta M}{M} ) \ ( 1 - \frac{1}{2} \frac{\Delta R}{R} )$ )

we make the product and keep the terms linear

vₐ = v_c $( \ 1 + \frac{1}{2} ( \frac{\Delta M}{M} - \frac{\Delta R}{R}) \ )$

goblinko [34]

Answer;

-Sensors

-Sensors are placed on dangerous machinery to detect motion, light, heat, pressure, or another stimulus. Their presence helps protect operators from injury while working on machines.

Explanation;

-Machinery, safety and factory floor sensors and switches help workers become more productive, efficient, and safe.

-Hazardous machines and systems are frequently equipped with safety elements (safety doors) with a locking mechanism to protect the operator. Their function is to prevent hazardous machine functions if the safety door is not closed and locked and to keep the safety door closed and locked until the risk of injury has passed.
