Suppose that Mercury rotates on its axis once every days. The equator lies on a circle with a radius of miles. (a) Find the angu

lar speed of a point on its equator in radians per year ( days). (b) Find the linear speed of a point on the equator in miles per year. Do not round any intermediate computations, and round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Answer:

a)  w= 6 rad/day b) v = 2 10² m

Explanation:

Let's use angular kinematic relationships

a) The angular velocity is

    W = θ / t

     t = 1 day (24 h / 1 day) (3600s / 1 h) = 86400 s

    w = 2π / 86400

    w = 7.27 10⁻⁵ rad / s

Reduce to rad / day

   w = 7.27 rad / s (3600s / 1 h) (24 h / 1 day)

   w = 6.28 rad / day

   w= 6 rad/day

b) the linear velocity is

   v = w r

Mercury radius is

   r = 2.43 106 m

   v =  7.27 10⁻⁵ 2.43 10⁶

   v = 1.76661 10² m / s

   v = 2 10² m

Why does atomic radius decrease from left to right?
victus00 [196]
Because the effective charge of the nucleus increase from left to eight due to the increasing number of protons.

The greater charge pulls the electrons closer to the nucleus, decreasing the radius.

g We saw in class that in a pendulum the string does no work. We also saw that the normal force does no work on an object slidin
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

From question (a) and (b) the pendulum motion is perpendicular to the force so the normal force will do no work and the tension in the string of the pendulum will not work

       i.e Normal \ Force(N)  = mg cos \theta

And \theta = 90 so

           N = 0

c

An example will be a where a stone is attached to the end of a string and is made to move in a circular motion while keeping the other end of the string in a fixed position        

d

A dog walking along a surface which has friction, here the frictional force would acting in the direction of the motion and this would do positive work

Describe how a bowling pin will react to the unbalanced force of a bowling ball.
Jlenok [28]
Because the forces are not balanced the pin will fall down and go backwards and the force of the bowling ball will keep going after acting upon the non active pin

5. Measure: With the lights on, click Pause. Turn on Show rulers. A. The wavelength of a longitudinal wave is equal to the dista
Marysya12 [62]

Explanation:

A) The distance between the two successive compressions (or rarefactions) is actually called the wavelength of the longitudinal waves.

B) Wavelengths of longitudinal and transverse waves are comparable in the fact that in a transverse wave, the particles move perpendicular to the direction the wave travels whereas in a longitudinal wave the particles are displaced along the direction to the direction the wave travels
