The answer is D. centripetal force
This definition of centripetal force is a force acting towards the center of an object moving in a circular motion. Acceleration is the rate of which velocity changes over a period of time. If you pick a point on say a rotating circle and find the tangential velocity at each point it goes through, the acceleration would be towards the middle.

Cleo stated that light travels through air in straight paths, and when it moves from air to water, light changes direction, spee
Andru [333]

Answer:

Light slows down when it moves from air into water.

Explanation:

It is the property of light that travels faster in a less dense medium.

In a more dense medium, the speed of the light slows down and bends towards the normal.

The air is less dense medium and water is a more dense medium.

When light passes from air to water, the light bends.

This is known as the refraction of light.

Describe three pieces of evidence that support the Big Bang theory
lisov135 [29]

Explanation :

According to astronomers, the whole universe is started with a giant explosion called as Big Bang. Big Bang theory shows that the universe is  extended from high density state.

There are some evidence for big bang as :

(1) There are some red shifts of different galaxies which means that the universe is expanding.  

(2) Due to the expanding of universe, some of the new elements are created like hydrogen, deuterium etc.

(3) Microwaves are detected by orbiting detectors.

All this parameters shows that big bang theory was correct.

Our Sun shines bright with a luminosity of 3.828 x 1025 Watt. Her energies
kifflom [539]

Answer:

a)   E = 1.58 10²¹ J , b) Oil = 4,236 107 liter ,  e)   T = 54.3 C

Explanation:

a) To calculate the energy that reaches Earth, let us combine that the power emitted by the Sun is distributed uniformly on a spherical surface

     I = P / A

     A = 4π r²

in this case the radius of the sphere is the distance from the Sun to Earth r = 1.5 10¹¹ m

     I = P / A

     I = P / 4π r²

let's calculate

     I = 3,828 10²⁵/4 pi (1.5 10¹¹)²

     I = 1.3539 10²W / m² = 135.4 W / m2

the energy that reaches the disk of the Earth is

    E = I A

the area of ​​a disc

    A = π r²

    E = I π r²

where r is the radius of the Earth 6.37 10⁶ m

     E = 135.4 π(6.37 10⁶)

     E = 1,726 10¹⁶ W

This is the energy per unit of time that reaches Earth

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

     

    E = 1,826 10¹⁶ 86400

     E = 1.58 10²¹ J

b) for this part we can use a direct proportions rule

      Oil = 1.58 10²¹ (1 / 37.3 10⁶)

      Oil = 4,236 10⁷ liter

c) to silence the surface temperature of the Earth we use the Stefan-Bolztman Law

       P = σ A e T⁴

       T = \sqrt[4]{P/Ae}

nos indicate the refect, therefore the amount of absorbencies

       P_absorbed = 0.7 P

let's calculate

       T = REA (0.7 1.58 1021 / [pi (6.37 106) 2 1)

       T = RER (8,676 106)

       T = 54.3 C

b) Among the other factors that must be taken into account is the greenhouse effect, due to the absorption of gases from the atmosphere
