If it takes 1 year for this crab to travel 5,70km

Then, it will takes approximatly 1000/5,70 = 175 years to travel 1000 km

Answer:

Time taken by the crab, t = 17.54 years.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of a crab, v = 5.70 km/yr

Distance travelled by the crab, d = 100 km

We need to find the time taken by the crab to cover this much distance. Time taken is given by :

$t=\dfrac{d}{v}$

$t=\dfrac{100\ km}{5.70\ km/yr}$

t = 17.54 years

So, the time taken by the crab is 17.54 years. Hence, this is the required solution.

A Ferris wheel starts at rest and builds up to a final angular speed of 0.70 rad/s while rotating through an angular displacemen

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

The average angular acceleration is 0.05 radians per square second.

Explanation:

Let suppose that Ferris wheel accelerates at constant rate, the angular acceleration as a function of change in angular position and the squared final and initial angular velocities can be clear from the following expression:

$\omega^{2} = \omega_{o}^{2} + 2 \cdot \alpha\cdot (\theta-\theta_{o})$

Where:

$\omega_{o}$ , $\omega$ - Initial and final angular velocities, measured in radians per second.

$\alpha$ - Angular acceleration, measured in radians per square second.

$\theta_{o}$ , $\theta$ - Initial and final angular position, measured in radians.

Then,

$\alpha = \frac{\omega^{2}-\omega_{o}^{2}}{2\cdot (\theta-\theta_{o})}$

Given that $\omega_{o} = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}$ , $\omega = 0.70\,\frac{rad}{s}$ and $\theta-\theta_{o} = 4.9\,rad$ , the angular acceleration is:

$\alpha = \frac{\left(0.70\,\frac{rad}{s} \right)^{2}-\left(0\,\frac{rad}{s} \right)^{2}}{2\cdot \left(4.9\,rad\right)}$

$\alpha = 0.05\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}$

Now, the time needed to accelerate the Ferris wheel uniformly is described by this kinematic equation:

$\omega = \omega_{o} + \alpha \cdot t$

Where $t$ is the time measured in seconds.

The time is cleared and obtain after replacing every value:

$t = \frac{\omega-\omega_{o}}{\alpha}$

If $\omega_{o} = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}$ , $\omega = 0.70\,\frac{rad}{s}$ and $\alpha = 0.05\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}$ , the required time is:

$t = \frac{0.70\,\frac{rad}{s} - 0\,\frac{rad}{s} }{0.05\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}} }$

$t = 14\,s$

Average angular acceleration is obtained by dividing the difference between final and initial angular velocities by the time found in the previous step. That is:

$\bar \alpha = \frac{\omega-\omega_{o}}{t}$

If $\omega_{o} = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}$ , $\omega = 0.70\,\frac{rad}{s}$ and $t = 14\,s$ , the average angular acceleration is:

$\bar \alpha = \frac{0.70\,\frac{rad}{s} - 0\,\frac{rad}{s} }{14\,s}$

$\bar \alpha = 0.05\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}$

The average angular acceleration is 0.05 radians per square second.

Pavel [41]

Answer:

C. Up, equal to the can's weight

Explanation:

You are camping in the breathtaking mountains if Colorado. You spy an unopened diet soda can floating motionless below the surface of a lake. What is the direction and amount of force the water exerts on it?

A. Zero

B. Down, equal to the can's weight

C. Up, equal to the can's weight

D. Not enough information is given

from the principle of flotation which states that a

When a body displaces a weight of water equal to its own weight, it floats. : A floating object displaces a weight of fluid equal to its own weight. ... Archimedes' principle equates the buoyant force to the weight of the fluid displaced.

the upthrust (this is the upward vertical force exerted on an object in fluid)in the water equals the weight of the body in water it floats.

A beam of electrons passes through a single slit, and a beam of protons passes through a second, but identical, slit. The electr

ryzh [129]

Answer:

(b) The electrons, because they have the smaller momentum and, hence, the larger de Broglie wavelength

Explanation:

de Broglie wavelength λ = h / m v

Since both electrons and protons have same velocity , momentum mv will be less for electrons because mass of electron is less .

for electron , momentum is less so . Therefore de Broglie wavelength λ will be more for electrons .

Amount of diffraction that is angle of diffraction is proportional to λ

Therefore electrons having greater de Broglie wavelength will show greater diffraction.

Pls help ASAP. This is astronomy but there isn't an option :)

From largest to smallest they are: Universe, galaxy, solar system, star, planet, moon and asteroid.

Explanation:Let's describe them from smallest to largest. In fact the size order is not exact as there are exceptions.An asteroid is a rocky body which lies in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. They are typically quite small object. The largest asteroid Ceres has been reclassified as a dwarf planet.A moon is typically a rocky body which is in orbit around a planet. Some moons such as our Moon are quite large and are typically bigger than asteroid. Some moons can actually be smaller than some asteroids.A planet is a nearly spherical body which is in orbit around the Sun. Planets are larger than moons.A star is what planets orbit around. It is the source of light and heat. Our Sun is a star which is many times bigger than all of the planets.A solar system is a star and all of its planets, asteroids, comets and other bodies. It is significantly bigger than a star.A galaxy, such as our Milky Way Galaxy, is a collection of solar systems orbiting around a central core. Most galaxies have a supermassive black hole at their centres.Galaxies also form clusters which are large scale structures.The universe is everything. It contains billions of galaxies. Lots of information RIGHT!!!!
