The correct answer is B. are capable of suffering.
We don't know if animals have moral agency - we cannot understand animals and the way they think or communicate with others, so we don't know if they have a moral compass. C is incorrect because animals can definitely defend themselves; and not all animals are human property, so D is also incorrect. This leaves us with B - animals can be hurt and can suffer, and that's why they should have their own rights.

On a certain planet, which is perfectly spherically symmetric, the free-fall acceleration has magnitude g = go at the north pole

ohaa [14]

The reason why there is a difference between free-fall acceleration is a centrifugal force.
I attached a diagram that shows how this force aligns with the force of gravity.
From the diagram we can see that:
$F=F_g-F_{cf}=mg'-mw^2r'cos(\alpha)\\ ma=mg'-mw^2r'cos(\alpha)\\ a=g'-w^2rcos^2(\alpha)\\$
Where g' is the free-fall acceleration when there is no centrifugal force, r is the radius of the planet, and w is angular frequency of planet's rotation. $\alpha$ is the latitude.
We can calculate g' and wr^2 from the given conditions in the problem.
$g(90)=g_0;\ g_0= g'-w^2rcos^2(90)\\
g_0=g'\\
g(0)=ag_0;\ ag_0=g_0-w^2rcos^2(0)\\
ag_0=g_0-w^2r\\
w^2r=g_0(a-1)
$
Our final equation is:
$g=g_0-g_0(a-1)cos^2(\alpha)$
Colatitude is:
$\alpha_c=90^\circ-\alpha$
The answer is:
$g=g_0-g_0(a-1)cos^2(90-9)=g_0-g_0(a-1)sin^2(9)$

Acceleration of a free-falling object in a frictionless environment increases as a function of time.

Digiron [165]

A free-falling object is an object moving under the effect of gravitational forces alone

The correct option to select for the True or False question is False

The reason the above selected option is correct is as follows:

According to Newton's second law of motion, we have;

Force = Mass × Acceleration

The force of gravity is $F_{g} =G \cdot \dfrac{M \cdot m}{r^{2}}$

Where;

$G \cdot \dfrac{M }{r^{2}} = Acceleration \ due \ to \ gravity , \ g \approx 9.81 m/s^2$

m = The mass of the object

∴ The force acting on an object in free fall, $F_g$ = m × g

Therefore the acceleration of an object in free fall is the constant acceleration due to gravity, and it therefore, does not change with time

The correct option for the question, acceleration of a free-falling object in a frictionless environment increases as a function of time is <u>False</u>

<u></u>

An atom emits a light wave with a wavelength of 449 nm. what type or color of light does this represent?

Vinvika [58]

The visible spectrum ranges from 390 nm to 700 nm. the visible spectrum consist of the red ( 620 - 750 nm ) , orange ( 590 - 620 nm ) , yellow ( 570 - 590 nm ) , green ( 495 - 570 nm ) , blue ( 450 - 495 nm ) and violet ( 380 - 450 nm ) so the wave length 449 nm will produce a violet color
