when the apple moves in a horizontal circle, the tension force in the string provides the necessary centripetal force to move in circle. the tension in the string is given as

T=mv²/r

where T = tension force in the string , m = mass of the apple

v = speed of apple , r = radius of circle.

clearly , tension force depends on the square of the speed. hence greater the speed, greater will be the tension force.

at some point , the speed becomes large enough that it makes the tension force in the string becomes greater than the tensile strength of the string. at that point , the string breaks

FromTheMoon [43]

m = Q(on moon) * G(on moon) = 200N * 1.63N/kg = 326kg

Q(Earth)= g * m = 10m/s2 * 326kg = 3260N

Place the following types of electromagnetic radiation in order of increasing wavelength. ultraviolet light gamma rays radio wav
kvv77 [185]

Answer: gamma rays < ultraviolet light < radio waves

Explanation: We have to explain the ordering we take into account a relationship for electromagnetic wave, which is given by:

c=λ*ν c is the speed of light.  λ and ν are the wavelegth and the frequency of the waves.

Then we also know that the high frequency of these radiation correspond to the gamma ray (10^18 1/s) while the lowest correspond to radio wave (10^8 1/s) so:

The ultraviolet ligth is ranged at frequencies of 10^16 1/s located bewteen gamma and radio radiation.

as large frequency lower wavelength we can order these radiations from short to long wavelengths as follows:

gamma rays < ultraviolet light < radio waves

Which planet is known as evening star​
Verdich [7]

Answer:

Mercury is a metal that is used in

Mercury can be seen as an evening "star" near the sun's setting point or as a morning "star" near the sun's rising point. The evening star was given the name Hermes, and the morning star was given the name Apollo, since the ancient Greeks thought they were two separate things. Mercury, the Roman god's messenger, is the planet's name.
