One problem for humans living in outer space is that they are apparently weightless. One way around this problem is to design a

space station that spins about its center at a constant rate. This creates "artificial gravity" at the outside rim of the station. ?

This question is not complete.

The complete question is as follows:

One problem for humans living in outer space is that they are apparently weightless. One way around this problem is to design a space station that spins about its center at a constant rate. This creates “artificial gravity” at the outside rim of the station. (a) If the diameter of the space station is 800 m, how many revolutions per minute are needed for the “artificial gravity” acceleration to be 9.80m/s2?

Explanation:

a. Using the expression;

T = 2π√R/g

where R = radius of the space = diameter/2

R = 800/2 = 400m

g= acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s^2

1/T = number of revolutions per second

T = 2π√R/g

T = 2 x 3.14 x √400/9.8

T = 6.28 x 6.39 = 40.13

1/T = 1/40.13 = 0.025 x 60 = 1.5 revolution/minute

Can anyone help me learn Malus's law in optics?​
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

It is also called law of Malus,the law states that the intensity of a beam of plane-polarized light after passing through a rotatable polarizer varies as square of the cosine of the angle through which the polarizer is rotated from the position that gives maximum intensity expand.

The liquid pressure varies with depth why​
Solnce55 [7]

Explanation:

Hey, there!

The liquid pressure varies with depth because liquid pressure is directly proportional to the depth of liquid from the free surface of the liquid. so, more the depth more the pressure and less the depth less the pressure.

At highway speeds, a particular car is capable of an acceleration of about 1.6 m/s?. At this rate,
kicyunya [14]

Given parameters:

Acceleration of the car = 1.6m/s

Initial speed  = 80km/hr

Final speed  = 110km/hr

Solution:

Time taken to achieve this speed = ?

Solution:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with the time taken.

  Mathematically;

     a  = \frac{V - U}{T}

where a is the acceleration

           V is the final velocity

           U is the initial velocity

           T is the time taken

Now make the unknown time the subject of the expression;

      aT  = V - U

         T = \frac{V - U}{a}  

Convert the given acceleration to km/hr;

       1.6m/s  = 1.6 x \frac{m}{s}  x \frac{1km}{1000m} x \frac{3600s}{1hr} = 5.76km/hr

Input the parameters and solve;

       T = \frac{110 - 80}{5.76}  = 5.2hrs

The time taken is 5.2hrs

a train travels 81 kilometers in 2 hours and then 88 kilometers in 2 hours what is its average speed​
Blababa [14]

Average speed = total distance / total time

= (81 + 88) / (2 + 2)

= 169/4

= 42.25 kilometers/hour
