Answer:

d. The earth rotates around the sun

Explanation:

  • Nicolas Copernicus is considered the first person to give the theory of heliocentric, or Sun-centered system of our planetary system.
  • In the heliocentric system, it is considered that the sun is stationary and the earth revolves around the sun.
  • He stated that the sun is at the center of the universe and the earth spins on its axis once daily and revolves around the sun in one year.
  • And today we know it is correct that earth rotates on its own axis and also revolves around the sun.

A child in a boat throws a 5.80-kg package out horizontally with a speed of 10.0 m/s. The mass of the child is 24.6kg and the ma
Sergio [31]

Answer:

-0.912 m/s

Explanation:

When the package is thrown out, momentum is conserved. The total momentum after is the same as the total momentum before, which is 0, since the boat was initially at rest.

(m_c + m_b)v_b + m_pv_p = 0

where m_c = 24.6 kg, m_b = 39 kg, m_p = 5.8 kg are the mass of the child, the boat and the package, respectively. , v_p = 10m/s, v_b are the velocity of the package and the boat after throwing.

(24.6 + 39)v_b + 5.8*10 = 0

63.6v_b + 58 = 0

v_b = -58/63.6 = -0.912 m/s

An old grindstone, used for sharpening tools, is a solid cylindrical wheel that can rotate about its central axle with negligibl
krok68 [10]

(a) The moment of inertia of the wheel  is 78.2 kgm².

(b) The mass (in kg) of the wheel is 1,436.2 kg.

(c) The angular speed (in rad/s) of the wheel at the end of this time period is 3.376 rad/s.

<h3>Moment of inertia of the wheel</h3>

Apply principle of conservation of angular momentum;

Fr = Iα

where;

  • F is applied force
  • r is radius of the cylinder
  • α is angular acceleration
  • I is moment of inertia

I = Fr/α

I = (200 x 0.33) / (0.844)

I = 78.2 kgm²

<h3>Mass of the wheel</h3>

I = ¹/₂MR²

where;

  • M is mass of the solid cylinder
  • R is radius of the solid cylinder
  • I is moment of inertia of the solid cylinder

2I = MR²

M = 2I/R²

M = (2 x 78.2) / (0.33²)

M = 1,436.2 kg

<h3>Angular speed of the wheel after 4 seconds</h3>

ω = αt

ω = 0.844 x 4

ω = 3.376 rad/s

Thus, the moment of inertia of the wheel  is 78.2 kgm².

The mass (in kg) of the wheel is 1,436.2 kg.

The angular speed (in rad/s) of the wheel at the end of this time period is 3.376 rad/s.

Which of the following pairings are more likely to be held together with the strong nuclear force?
aivan3 [116]

Which of the following pairings are more likely to be held together with the strong nuclear force

Explanation:

1.What does a strong nuclear force do in an atom? It repels electrons from other electrons. It repels protons from other protons. It attracts protons and neutrons.

2.The chain reaction requires both the release of neutrons from fissile isotopes undergoing nuclear fission and the subsequent absorption of some of these neutrons in fissile isotopes.

3.The strong nuclear force holds most ordinary matter together because it confines quarks into hadron particles such as the proton and neutron. In addition, the strong force binds these neutrons and protons to create atomic nuclei.
