In this system we have the conservation of angular momentum: L₁ = L₂
We can write L = m·r²·ω

Therefore, we will have:
m₁ · r₁² · ω₁ = m₂ · r₂² · ω₂

The mass stays constant, therefore it cancels out, and we can solve for ω<span>₂:
</span>ω₂ =  (r₁/ r₂)² · ω<span>₁
     
Since we know that r</span>₁ = 4r<span>₂, we get:
</span>ω₂ =  (4)² · ω<span>₁
     = 16 </span>· ω<span>₁

Hence, the protostar will be rotating 16 </span><span>times faster.</span>

The ozone layer is found in which layer of the atmosphere
prohojiy [21]

This question is incomplete because the options are missing; here is the complete question

The ozone layer is found in which layer of the atmosphere?

A. Stratosphere

B. Mesosphere

C. Thermosphere

D. Troposphere

The correct answer is A. Stratosphere

Explanation:

The ozone layer as indicated by its name is mainly composed of Ozone (O2), this layer is essential for life because it filters ultraviolet radiation and acts as a greenhouse effect gas by trapping part of the heat from the sun. Additionally, the ozone layer is located in the stratosphere, which is the second layer of the atmosphere and can be found between 20 km to 50 km from Earth's surface. Moreover, the existence of the ozone layer in the stratosphere makes the temperature increase with height due to the radiation of the sun filter by ozone.

In which direction is the magnetic force acting on the charge? into the screen out of the screen up down
Harrizon [31]

The direction in which the magnetic force is acting on the charge is upwards.

<h3>What is Magnetic force?</h3>

This is the attraction and repulsion which usually occurs during the motion of electrically charged particles.

In the magnetic field, the charge is moving to the left. Therefore the direction the magnetic force is acting on the charge is upwards which is gotten via right hand rule.

A 0.68 kg squirrel is resting on a branch 8 meters above the ground. What is the gravitational potential energy of a squirrel? A
ANEK [815]

Answer:

The gravitational potential energy of a squirrel is 53.312 J.

Explanation:

We have,

Mass of a squirrel is 0.68 kg

It is placed at a height of 8 m above the ground.

It is required to find the gravitational potential energy of a squirrel. It is possessed by an object due to its position. Its formula is given by :

E=mgh\\\\E=0.68\times 9.8\times 8\\\\E=53.312\ J

So, the gravitational potential energy of a squirrel is 53.312 J.

A Cessna aircraft has a liftoff speed of 120 km/h What minimum constant acceleration does the aircraft require to be airborne af
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

<h3>2.3125m/s²</h3>

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion v² = u²+2aS

v is the final velocity = 120km/hr

120km/hr = 120 * 1000/1 * 3600 = 33.3m/s

u is the initial velocity = 0m/s

a is the acceleration

S is the distance covered = 240m

On substituting the given parameters

33.3² = 0²+2a(240)

33.3² = 480a

1110 = 480a

a = 1110/480

a = 2.3125m/s²

Hence the minimum constant acceleration that the aircraft require to be airborne after a takeoff run of 240 m is 2.3125m/s²
