A wheel is rotating in a counterclockwise direction about its center. Then suppose the rotation rate slows to zero and then spee

ds up to an even greater value in the opposite direction. For an object attached to the rim of the wheel: (the equation for centripetal acceleration aC = vt2/r, where vt = tangential velocity and r is the wheel radius)
What happens to the direction of the centripetal acceleration vector (what’s the overall change in the direction)?

Answer:

Explanation:

When a body moves on a circular path , it undergoes a centripetal acceleration which is directed towards the centre . Whether the body moves clockwise or anticlockwise , the direction of centripetal acceleration will always oriented towards the centre.

The variation in  tangential velocity will only change the magnitude of the acceleration but the direction of the centripetal acceleration will always be directed towards the centre.

So in the given case , change in the direction of rotation will not change the direction of centripetal acceleration. It will remain unchanged towards the centre.

overall change in direction of centripetal acceleration  is zero.

Answer:

Answer

Explanation:

The very first generation of star systems in the universe probably consisted only of hydrogen and helium. This means that,

There were no comets or asteroids in these first-generation star systems. As the comets and asteroids were the only soruce of elements other than Hydrogen and Heliums ( As starts mainly consists of helium and hydrogen).

Naya [18.7K]
1-fixation ( Bacteria Converts nitrogen to ammonium so plants can use it )
2-nitrification ( bacteria changes ammonium to nitrates and plants )
3 - Assimilation (plants absorb nitrates it is then used for Chlorophyll..)

What is it that lives if it is fed, and dies if you give it a drink?
Anna71 [15]

Fire is it that lives if it is fed, and dies if you give it a drink.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Fire is very essential part of human life. It is used for cooking food and for other important activities. Without fire we cannot not survive. Something or the other should be heated before consumption and this can be achieved only with fir. It is also used in the darker places for viewing many things around us.

Thus, fire can survive if we give fuel or any wooden pieces and when water is poured on it it will turn off. Hence Fire is the one that survives when it is fed and dies when water is given as a drink to it.
