Once the starlight or moonlight comes down the tube and hits the big main mirror at the bottom, it's reflected, and heads back up the tube, along the same way it came in. But if you're looking through an eyepiece, the eyepiece is on the SIDE of the tube. So you need another small mirror, to catch the focused light before it goes up out of the tube, and send it sideways to the eyepiece.

Collar P slides outward at a constant relative speed along rod AB, which rotates counterclockwise with a constant angular veloci
diamong [38]

Answer:

a= 23.65 ft/s²

Explanation:

given

r= 14.34m

ω=3.65rad/s

Ф=Ф₀ + ωt

t = Ф - Ф₀/ω

= (98-0)×\frac{\pi}{180}/3.65

98°= 1.71042 rad

1.7104/3.65

t= 0.47 s

r₁(not given)

assuming r₁ =20 in

r₁ = r₀ + ut(uniform motion)

u = r₁ - r₀/t

r₀ = 14.34 in= 1.195 ft

r₁ = 20 in = 1.67 ft

= (1.667 - 1.195)/0.47

0.472/0.47

u= 1.00ft/s

acceleration at collar p

a=rω²

= 1.67 × 3.65²

a = 22.25ft/s²

acceleration of collar p related to the rod = 0

coriolis acceleration = 2ωu

= 2× 3.65×1 = 7.3 ft/s²

acceleration of collar p

= 22.5j + 0 + 7.3i

√(22.5² + 7.3²)

the magnitude of the acceleration of the collar P just as it reaches B in ft/s²

a= 23.65 ft/s²

Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu.
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

(1) An object that’s negatively charged has more electrons than protons.

(2) An object that’s positively charged has fewer electrons than protons.

(3) An object that’s not charged has the same number of electrons than protons.

Explanation :

Objects have three subatomic particles that are Electrons, protons, and neutrons.

Protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus and electrons rotate or move outside the nucleus. Naturally, protons are positively charged, neutrons have no charge, and electrons are negatively charged.

Therefore, an object that is negatively charged has more electrons than protons.  An object that is not charged has the same number of electrons than protons. An object that is positively charged has fewer electrons than protons.
