<span>d.rotating counterclockwise and slowing down
This is a matter of understanding the notation and conventions of angular rotations. Positive rotations are counter clockwise and negative rotations are clockwise. An easy way to remember this is the "right hand rule". Make a closed fist with your right hand and have the thumb sticking outwards. If you orient your thumb such that it's pointing in the direction of the positive value along the axis, your fingers will be curled in the positive rotational direction. So in the described scenario, the sphere is rotating in the positive direction (counter clockwise) and decelerating due to the negative angular acceleration. That immediately indicates that options "a", "b", and "e" are wrong since they mention the sphere going clockwise at the beginning. Of the two remaining options "c" and "d", we can discard option "c" since it has the rotation speeding up, and that leaves us with option "d" where the sphere is rotating counter clockwise and slowing down.</span>
See coulomb's law. Force is inversely proportional to the distance squared. So if you multiply r by 2, the force is multiplied by (½)² = ¼.
a. F/4
Answer:
(a). The path length is 3.09 m at 30°.
(b). The path length is 188.4 m at 30 rad.
(c). The path length is 1111.5 m at 30 rev.
Explanation:
Given that,
Radius = 5.9 m
(a). Angle 
We need to calculate the angle in radian

We need to calculate the path length
Using formula of path length



(b). Angle = 30 rad
We need to calculate the path length


(c). Angle = 30 rev
We need to calculate the angle in rad


We need to calculate the path length


Hence, (a). The path length is 3.09 m at 30°.
(b). The path length is 188.4 m at 30 rad.
(c). The path length is 1111.5 m at 30 rev.
Most geologists accept radiometric dating techniques as valid because radioactive elements decay at a constant and measurable rate.
Answer: Option C
<u>Explanation:</u>
Scientists prefer radioactive dating to carbon dating because it is more accurate in measuring. The analysis depends upon the radioactive decay of radioactive isotopes of any matter in a given rock or soil.
The parent atoms and daughter atoms are compared while studying, and hence age can be calculated easily. Radioactive decay depends upon the given half-life of the atom, which is a constant and is known. So, it would be very easy to calculate the number of progeny atoms and parent atoms and find out their age.
