Answer: A

Explanation:

From the question, the given parameters are given.

Mass M = 30kg

Radius r = 2 m

Coefficient of static friction μ = 0.8

Coefficient of kinetic friction μ = 0.6

Kinetic friction Fk = μ × mg

Fk = 0.6 × 30 × 9.8

Fk = 176.4 N

The force acting on the merry go round is a centripetal force F.

F = MV^2/r

This force must be greater than or equal to the kinetic friction Fk. That is,

F = Fk

F = 176.4

Substitute F , M and r into the centripetal force formula above

176.4 = (30×V^2)/2

Cross multiply

352.8 = 30V^2

V^2 = 352.8/30

V = sqrt (11.76) m/s

V = 5.24 m/s

Therefore, the maximum speed of the merry go round before the child begins to slip is sqrt (12) m/s approximately

Should nuclear energy be part of sustainable energy future? explain your answer
liraira [26]

Answer:

Nuclear power is presently a sustainable energy source, but could become completely renewable if the source of uranium changed from mined ore to seawater. Since U extracted is continuously replenished through geologic processes, nuclear would become as endless as solar.

An FM radio station broadcasts at 9.23 × 107 Hz. Given that the radio waves travel at 3.00 × 108 m/s, what is the wavelength of
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

3.2m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Frequency of the FM radio = 9.23 x 10⁷Hz

Velocity of the waves = 3  x 10⁸m/s

Unknown:

Wavelength of the wave = ?

Solution:

To solve for the wavelength of the wave, we need the velocity equation;

       Velocity = frequency x wavelength.

Radio waves are all electromagnetic radiations produced by both electrical and magnetic fields perpendicularly oriented to one another.

 Since the unknown is wavelength, we solve for it:

       

    3  x 10⁸  = 9.23 x 10⁷ x wavelength

          wavelength = \frac{ 3 x 10^{8} }{9.23 x  10^{7} }

        wavelength = 3.2m

Characteristics, such as field name and data type, are_____ that define a field.
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Characteristics, such as field name and data type are properties that define a field.

<h3>What are the properties of a given discipline or research field?</h3>

The properties of a given discipline or research field are those that characterize the use of a particular type of information within the range of the attained field.

For example, genomics is a field characterized to make use of sequencing data, which refers to the linear order of nucleotides in the DNA sequence to provide useful information about the gene content and the presence of regulatory non-coding sequences.

Therefore, with this data, we can see that the properties of a given discipline or research field are mainly associated with the type of information that such discipline uses to make predictions in a given research and they are also related to the outcomes we can expect from such data.
