Answer:

Saturn's differential rotation will cause the length of a day measures to be longer by 0.4 hours

Explanation:

Differential rotation occurs due to the difference in angular velocities of an object as we move along the latitude of the or as we move into different depth of the object, indicating the observed object is in a fluid form

Saturn made almost completely of gas and has differential motion given as follows

Rotation at the equator = 10 hours 14 minutes

Rotation at high altitude = 10 hours 38 minutes

Therefore;

The differential rotation = 10 hours 38 minutes - 10 hours 14 minutes

The differential rotation = 24 minutes = 24 minutes × 1 hour/(60 minutes) = 0.4 hours

The differential rotation = 0.4 hours

Therefore, the measured day at the higher altitude will be 0.4 longer than at the equator.

A box slides down a frictionless plane inclined at an angle θ ¸ above the horizontal. The gravitational force on the box is dire
DedPeter [7]
<h2>Answer: at an angle \theta below the inclined plane. </h2>

If we draw the <u>Free Body Diagram</u> for this situation (figure attached), taking into account only the gravity force in this case, we will see the weight W of the block, which is directly proportional to the gravity acceleration g:  

W=m.g

This force is directed vertically at an angle \theta below the inclined plane, this means it has an X-component and a Y-component:

W=W_{X}+W_{Y}

W_{X}=m.g.cos(\theta)

W_{Y}=m.g.sin(\theta)

Therefore the correct option is c

A cylindrical region of radius R contains a uniform magnetic field parallel to its axis. The field is zero outside the cylinder.
PtichkaEL [24]

The magnitude of the induced electric field is (RdB/dt)/4

The induced electric field is gotten from

-∫E.dl = dФ/dt where E = induced electric field, dl = path length vector, Ф = magnetic flux through cylindrical region = AB where A = area of magnetic flux = πR² where R = radius of cylindrical region and B = magnetic field.

So, -∫E.dl = dФ/dt

-∫E.dl = dAB/dt

-∫Edlcos0 = AdB/dt (where E.dl = Edlcos0 = Edl since E and dl are parallel to each other.)

So -∫Edl = πR²dB/dt

-E∫dl = πR²dB/dt (∫dl = 2πr since the integral is the circumference of the path)

-E(2πr) = πR²dB/dt (we integrate dl from r = 0 to 2R)

-E2π(2R - 0) = πR²dB/dt

-E4πR= πR²dB/dt

E = πR²dB/dt ÷ 4πR

E = -(RdB/dt)/4

So, the magnitude of the induced electric field is (RdB/dt)/4

A 79 kg person sits on a 3.7 kg chair. Each leg of the chair makes contact with the floor in a circle that is 1.3 cm in diameter
vampirchik [111]
I'll assume that the chair has four legs.

Since the chair weights 3.7 kg by itself, it will weigh (79+3.7)=82.7 kg with the person sitting on it. And each of the chair's legs will take about (82.7/4)=20.675 kg.

Each leg touches the floor in a circle with 1.3cm diameter. The area of that circle is about (3.14*(1.3/2)^2)=1.327 cm^2.

Pressure is measured by force per area. So, the pressure from each leg is about 20.675kg / 1.327cm^2. That simplifies to 15.58 kg/cm^2.
