Answer:

20.25 m

Explanation:

  • <u>Centripetal acceleration </u>is given by; the square of the velocity, divided by the radius of the circular path.

That is;

         <em><u>ac = v²/r</u></em>

<em>         </em><em><u> Where; ac = acceleration, centripetal, m/s², v is the velocity, m/s and r is the  radius, m</u></em>

Therefore;

r = v²/ac

  = 27²/36

  = 20.25 m

Hence the radius is 20.25 meters

Answer: Third option.

Explanation: The equation for the centripetal acceleration in a circle is calculated as:

Ac = v^2/r

where v is the velocity of the car and r is the radius of the circle.

We know that Ac = 36 m/s^2 and v = 27 m/s, now we can replace it in the equation for Ac and find the value of r.

36 = 27^2/r

r= 27^2/36 = 20.25m

So the radius of the circle is 20.25m, the answer that is more close to it, is the third one, 20m

Nitella [24]

Answer: C. Galactic disk

Explanation:

The part of the Milky Way which allows the determination of it rotational direction is known as the Galactic disk. This disc are shaped because they contain gases which are rich and dynamically young. It is also a part of a group of a galaxies disc is a component of disc galaxies, known as spiral galaxies and lenticular galaxies.

Softa [21]

Answer:

Facilitated diffusion of solutes occurs through protein pores in the membrane.

Explanation:

Facilitated diffusion: It is known as a type a passive transport which diffuses the solutes through specific trans membrane integral proteins in the plasma membrane. Transport proteins helps in diffuse some ions, and molecules across the plasma membrane.

There are three types of transport proteins which are involved in this diffusion:

1) gated channel proteins.

2) carrier proteins.

3) channel proteins.

Some example of facilitated diffusion are: glucose transporter, ion channels, and aquaporins.

If the beach above is preserved by depositing sand over a wider area into the water, which of the following will most likely res
Scorpion4ik [409]

"Erosion will increase, carrying more sand away than before" will most likely result.

Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

Erosion occurs when the sea area is consumed. There are five main mechanisms that cause coastal erosion. There is corrasion, hydraulic performance, abrasion, oxidation and solution/ corrosion.

Corrasion occurs when the waves remove dirt from the floor (like pebbles) and rotate it at the bottom of the rock. The shoreline is usually longer. Softer areas are covered with sediment from hard areas and rocks are removed.

Two cylinders with the same mass density rC = 713 kg / m3 are floating in a container of water (with mass density rW = 1025 kg /
cluponka [151]

Answer:

\dfrac{h_2}{h_1}=\dfrac{1}{2}

Explanation:

Lets take h is height of cylinder immersed in the water

We know that for floating body

h=\dfrac{\rho_cL}{\rho_l}

Where \rho_c density of cylinder

\rho_l density of water

For both cylinder fluid is same also density of cylinders are also same

So

\dfrac{h_1}{L_1}=\dfrac{h_2}{L_2}

\dfrac{h_1}{h_2}=\dfrac{L_1}{L_2}

\dfrac{h_1}{h_2}=\dfrac{20}{10}

\dfrac{h_2}{h_1}=\dfrac{1}{2}
