Complete Question:

Andy and Charlie are riding on a merry-go-round. Andy rides on a horse at the outer rim of the circular platform, twice as far from the center of the circular platform as Charlie, who rides on an inner horse. When the merry-go-round is rotating at a constant angular speed, which of the following best describes Andy's angular speed?'

( ) twice Charlie’s

( ) impossible to determine.

( ) the same as Charlie’s

( ) half of Charlie’s

Answer:

The same as Charlie's

Explanation:

As a merry-go-round is a rigid body, all points in the rotating body must have the same angular velocity, i.e., thet must rotate the same angle in the same time.

Otherwise, the distance between any pair of points on a given radius could be different in different times, which is not possible in a rigid body,

Two round concentric metal wires lie on a tabletop, one inside the other. The inner wire has a diameter of 18.0 cm and carries a
Helen [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

The wires are in circular shape . They have common center .

magnetic field due to circular wire is given by the formula

B = \frac{\mu_0\times I }{2r}

 where I is current , r is radius of the coil .

magnetic field due to inner wire

= \frac{\mu_0\times 10 }{2\times.09}

magnetic field due to outer wire

= \frac{\mu_0\times I }{2\times.15}

These should be equal  and opposite so that by cancelling each other , they create zero field.

\frac{\mu_0\times 10 }{2\times.09}  = \frac{\mu_0\times I }{2\times.15}

I = 16.66  A

Direction of current should be in opposite direction ie anticlockwise when looking from above.

How does a blue object look under all colors of light
OverLord2011 [107]
The "blue" object would look the same. Say that this blue object is a square. That "square" is every color but blue. The only reason that you see it as "blue" is because what we call "blue", it the only color of light that bounces back at our eyes. Under all colors of light, especially simultaneously. This square or any shape for that matter would absorb the other colors of light, but the blue will be rejected. Therefore, we can only see what bounces back at our eyes, which is the color blue in this case. 

Hope this helps, WyattMarine501

What is the difference between air resistance and friction? ​
Vladimir [108]

Answer:Friction is a force that opposes the motion of objects; friction can cause objects to slow down. Air resistance is a type of friction. Air resistance causes moving objects to slow down. Different physical properties, such as the shape of an object, affect the air resistance on an object.

A ball is lodged in a hole in the floor near the outside edge of a merry-go-round that is turning at constant speed. Which kinem
dybincka [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

It is given that the ball is lodged in a hole in the floor of merry-go-round that is running at a constant speed.

Now the ball is moving a vertical circular motion  

The position of the ball changes w.r.t to the center as it moves in a circular path i.e. vectorially it changes but its magnitude will remain the same.  

The velocity of the ball is the same as merry-go-round so its magnitude remains the same but its direction will change continuously.

As the ball is moving in a circular path so a centripetal acceleration will acts towards the center so its value will be continuously changing.
