The correct answer is the family van. Joseph is sitting inside of it and it doesn't move relative to him. The van is moving and everything outside the van is moving relative to Joseph so the library, Maria and <span>Jane's house are moving relative to him.</span>

Starting from rest, a disk rotates about its central axis with constant angular acceleration. in 6.00 s, it rotates 44.5 rad. du
Klio2033 [76]

a. The disk starts at rest, so its angular displacement at time t is

\theta=\dfrac\alpha2t^2

It rotates 44.5 rad in this time, so we have

44.5\,\mathrm{rad}=\dfrac\alpha2(6.00\,\mathrm s)^2\implies\alpha=2.47\dfrac{\rm rad}{\mathrm s^2}

b. Since acceleration is constant, the average angular velocity is

\omega_{\rm avg}=\dfrac{\omega_f+\omega_i}2=\dfrac{\omega_f}2

where \omega_f is the angular velocity achieved after 6.00 s. The velocity of the disk at time t is

\omega=\alpha t

so we have

\omega_f=\left(2.47\dfrac{\rm rad}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(6.00\,\mathrm s)=14.8\dfrac{\rm rad}{\rm s}

making the average velocity

\omega_{\rm avg}=\dfrac{14.8\frac{\rm rad}{\rm s}}2=7.42\dfrac{\rm rad}{\rm s}

Another way to find the average velocity is to compute it directly via

\omega_{\rm avg}=\dfrac{\Delta\theta}{\Delta t}=\dfrac{44.5\,\rm rad}{6.00\,\rm s}=7.42\dfrac{\rm rad}{\rm s}

c. We already found this using the first method in part (b),

\omega=14.8\dfrac{\rm rad}{\rm s}

d. We already know

\theta=\dfrac\alpha2t^2

so this is just a matter of plugging in t=12.0\,\mathrm s. We get

\theta=179\,\mathrm{rad}

Or to make things slightly more interesting, we could have taken the end of the first 6.00 s interval to be the start of the next 6.00 s interval, so that

\theta=44.5\,\mathrm{rad}+\left(14.8\dfrac{\rm rad}{\rm s}\right)t+\dfrac\alpha2t^2

Then for t=6.00\,\rm s we would get the same \theta=179\,\rm rad.

List each layer of the earth, starting at the crust, and identify one characteristic of each layer.
Savatey [412]

Answer:

Hope it helps

Explanation:

The inner core is solid, the outer core is liquid, and the mantle is solid/plastic. This is due to the relative melting points of the different layers (nickel–iron core, silicate crust and mantle) and the increase in temperature and pressure as depth increases

A 24 volt battery is connected to a 3Ω resistor and a 5Ω resistor in series. What is the current in the circuit?
Vladimir [108]

Answer: 3 Amperes

Explanation:

Voltage of battery = 24 volts

R1 = 3Ω

R2 = 5Ω

Total resistance = ?

Current, I = ?

Since the resistors are connected in series, the total resistance (Rtotal) of the circuit is the sum of each resistance.

i.e Rtotal = R1 + R2

Rtotal = 3Ω + 5Ω = 8Ω

Now recall that voltage = current x resistance

i.e V = I x Rtotal

24volts = I x 8Ω

I = 24 volts / 8Ω

I = 3 amperes

Thus, there is 3 Amperes of current in the circuit

What happens to parallel light rays that strike a concave lens?
Fiesta28 [93]
When parallel light rays comes across a concave lens, the rays are refracted outwards. Concave lenses are thinner in the middle part. Parallel light rays diverge and seems to appear from one point called the principal focus. The image formed is smaller.
