Consider two children sitting on a merry-go-round, with one closer to the outer edge and one closer to the center. show answer N

o Attempt Which child has a greater angular speed?
Physics
1 answer:
dolphi86 [110]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

They both have the same angular speed.

Explanation:

The mathematical formula for angular speed is:

w=\frac{2\pi}{T}

where w is angular speed, 2\pi is a constant, and T is the period (the time it takes the marry-go-round to complete a lap).

What we can see from the formula is that, since the 2\pi does not change its value, the angular speed depends only on the period T.

In this case for both the children closer to the outher edge and for the children closer to the center, the time to complete a lap is the same, because the time does not depend on where they are sitting in the marry go round. This means that the period for both is the same.

Thus, since the period for both is the same, the angular speed given by

w=\frac{2\pi}{T} will also be the same

1 What conclusion can you draw about semicircular canals from their name ? A Their shape B Their size Their location in your bod
oee [108]

Answer:

A. Their shape

Explanation:

The name clearly shows that the shape of these canals are semi-circular. The semi-circular canals consist of three tubes filled with fluid and located in the inner ear. They help to maintain balance and transmit impulses through the movement of the fluids. The impulses sent through these fluids are sent to the brain for interpretation.

The function of the canals are not indicated by the name, rather the shape is hinted through the name.

How is a frame of reference used to describe motion
Zinaida [17]
In particle kinematics, we measure the acceleration of the particle. For this, an observer is taken as a reference point. Generally we consider the observer as in origin of a co-ordinate system. The place where observer is placed is known as frame of reference. 
Newton's laws only work in the inertial frame of reference. Inertial frame is a frame of reference whose acceleration is zero. But, if you are observing the motion of an object from non-inertial frame, you need to add and extra force on the system under observation which is known as pseudo force.

A child is playing at the beach. she pours an equal amount of sand into both a short, fat container and a tall, thin container.
Darina [25.2K]
This response suggests that she is most likely in the pre-operational stage of cognitive development. This answer based on the Piaget's 4 Stages of Cognitive Development. The preoperational stage is the second stage of Cognitive development where human's have not yet reach the logical thinking ability. However<span>, the human already can think of image and object.</span>
