Answer:

d. $1 \times 10^{5}$ kilometers per hour

Explanation:

Halley's comet is named after the astronomer Halley. This comet entered the inner solar system from the Kupier's belt. It is very large in size. It appears every 75 or 79 years in the inner solar system and can be seen with the naked eye. Its orbit is elliptical in shape. It reflects the sun light, otherwise it is entirely dark and made up of volatile material, as observed

Answer:

The answer is I=70,513kgm^2

Explanation:

Here we will use the rotational mechanics equation T=Ia, where T is the Torque, I is the Moment of Inertia and a is the angular acceleration.

When we speak about Torque it´s basically a Tangencial Force applied over a cylindrical or circular edge. It causes a rotation. In this case, we will have that T=Ft*r, where Ft is the Tangencial Forge and r is the radius

Now we will find the Moment of Inertia this way:

$Ft*r=I*a$ -> $(Ft*r)/(a) = I$

Replacing we get that I is:

$I=(200N*0,33m)/(0,936rad/s^2)$

Then $I=70,513kgm^2$

In case you need to find extra information, keep in mind the Moment of Inertia for a solid cylindrical wheel is:

$I=(1/2)*(m*r^2)$

A marble rolls 269cm across the floor with a constant speed of in 44.1cm/s.

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

t = 6.09 seconds

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed, v = 44.1 cm/s

Distance, d = 269 cm

We need to find the time interval of the marble. Speed is distance per unit time.

$v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\\implies t=\dfrac{d}{v}\\\\t=\dfrac{269\ \text{cm}}{44.1\ \text{cm/s}}\\\\t=6.09\ s$

Hence, the time interval of the marble is 6.09 seconds.

Explain the law of conversion of energy with an example and explain it

Sophie [7]

Answer:

The law of conservation of energy can be seen in these everyday examples of energy transference: Water can produce electricity. Water falls from the sky, converting potential energy to kinetic energy. ... The cue ball loses energy because the energy it had has been transferred to the 8 ball, so the cue ball slows down.
