Answer:

C

Explanation:

Now the centripetal force is that force that keeps the object on course along the circle;

This is expressed mathematically as ;

F = mv^2/ r

Where F - centripetal force

m- mass of the object

v- velocity of the object

r- raduis

Note from the expression as r increases F decreases so if v and the mass is constant if r doubles F will reduce by half.

the half-life of iodine-131 is 8.1 days. how much time had passed if i only have one-fourth of the original sample?​
morpeh [17]

Answer:

16.2 days

Explanation:

Find the number of halflives:

1/2   *  1/2 =  1/4     so <u>two</u>   halflives have passed

   2 * 8.1 days = 16.2 days

A rod of length L and mass M has a nonuniform mass distribution. The linear mass density (mass per length) is λ=cx2, where x is
grigory [225]

Answer:

Explanation:

λ=c x²

c = λ / x²

λ is mass / length

so its dimensional formula is ML⁻¹

x is length so its dimensional formula is L

c = λ / x²

= ML⁻¹ / L²

= ML⁻³

B )

We shall find out the mass of the rod with the help of given expression of mass per unit length and equate it with given mass that is M

The mass in the rod is symmetrically distributed on both side of middle point.

we consider a small strip of rod of length dx at x distance away from middle point

its mass dm = λdx = cx² dx

By integrating it from -L to +L we can calculate mass of whole rod , that is

M = ∫cx² dx

= [c x³ / 3] from -L/2 to +L/2

= c/3 [ L³/8 + L³/8]

M = c L³/12

c = 12 M L⁻³

C ) Moment of inertia of rod

∫dmx²

= ∫λdxx²

= ∫cx²dxx²

= ∫cx⁴dx

= c x⁵ / 5 from - L/2 to L/2

= c / 5 ( L⁵/ 32 +L⁵/ 32)

= (2c / 160)L⁵

= (c / 80) L⁵

= (12 M L⁻³/80)L⁵

= 3/20 ML²

=

lightning strikes in the distance and six seconds later Thunder is heard how far away was the lightning strike
marshall27 [118]
The speed of sound really depends on the temperature and moisture in the air,
and the sound of the thunder doesn't necessarily travel straight from the lightning
to where you are.  So we can't say exactly. 

But if we use the nominal speed of 340 m/s, then 6 seconds means 2,040 meters,
or about 6,700 feet, or about 1.27 miles.
