Answer:

About 1080 miles per hour

Explanation:

If the earth spins 25,922 miles everyday (24 hours) then is would spin about 1080 miles per hour.

25 922 miles / 24

24 divided by 24 to get 1 ( 1 hour)

*if we divided 24 by 24 then we do the same to 25 922 (to make it equivalent)

25 922 divided by 24 = 1080.083333333333.

So, 1080 mph or 1080 miles / 1 hour

I hope this helped :)

A discus thrower turns with angular acceleration of 50 rad/s2, moving the discus in a circle of radius 0.80m. Find the radial an

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

The value of tangential acceleration $\alpha_{t} =$ 40 $\frac{m}{s^{2} }$

The value of radial acceleration $\alpha_{r} = 80 \frac{m}{s^{2} }$

Explanation:

Angular acceleration = 50 $\frac{rad}{s^{2} }$

Radius of the disk = 0.8 m

Angular velocity = 10 $\frac{rad}{s}$

We know that tangential acceleration is given by the formula $\alpha_{t} =$ $r \alpha$

Where r = radius of the disk

$\alpha$ = angular acceleration

⇒ $\alpha_{t} =$ 0.8 × 50

⇒ $\alpha_{t} =$ 40 $\frac{m}{s^{2} }$

This is the value of tangential acceleration.

Radial acceleration is given by

$\alpha_{r} = \frac{V^{2} }{r}$

Where V = velocity of the disk = r $\omega$

⇒ V = 0.8 × 10

⇒ V = 8 $\frac{m}{s}$

Radial acceleration

$\alpha_{r} = \frac{8^{2} }{0.8}$

$\alpha_{r} = 80 \frac{m}{s^{2} }$

This is the value of radial acceleration.

"What is the magnifying power of an astronomical telescope using a reflecting mirror whose radius of curvature is 5.9 m and an e

notka56 [123]

Answer:

The Magnifying power of a telescope is $M = 109.26$

Explanation:

Radius of curvature R = 5.9 m = 590 cm

focal length of objective $f_{objective}$ = $\frac{R}{2}$

⇒ $f_{objective}$ = $\frac{590}{2}$

⇒ $f_{objective}$ = 295 cm

Focal length of eyepiece $f_{eyepiece}$ = 2.7 cm

Magnifying power of a telescope is given by,

$M = \frac{f_{objective} }{f_{eyepiece} }$

$M = \frac{295}{2.7}$

$M = 109.26$

therefore the Magnifying power of a telescope is $M = 109.26$

Which of the following is an example of an electromagnetic wave? (2 points)

Maru [420]

A) red light
red lights are an example of an electromagnetic wave. visible lights are the only electromagnetic waves we can actually see on the spectrum. red, in particular has the biggest wavelength.

b) ocean waves
ocean waves are not an electromagnetic wave. in fact, it’s a mechanical wave. electromagnetic waves can travel through a vacuum, that is empty space, but mechanical waves cannot.

c) sound waves
sound waves are also not an electromagnetic wave. it’s a mechanical wave. you cannot hear electromagnetic waves.

d) earthquakes
an earthquake is also not an example of electromagnetic waves. it’s a mechanical wave.

hope this helps!
