NASA's Ames Research Center has a large centrifuge used for astronaut training. The centrifuge consists of a 3880-kg, 18.0-m-lon

g tubular structure, which rotates about its center. Find the centrifuge's rotational inertia when two 105-kg seats are mounted at either end of the tube, 7.92 m from the rotation axis, and both are occupied by 72.6-kg astronauts. Treat the tube as a thin rod and the astronauts and seats as point masses.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>Turning a magnet very quickly would be BEST used to create an electric current</u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

In Electromagnetic waves electric field produces magnetic field and vice versa. A moving magnet can produce electric current. Dynamo is the best example for it. In dynamo armature is rotated between the magnets which results in the development of electric field and hence an electric current is produced in it.

Help me please :(((((((
Dimas [21]

Answer: A.

Explanation: Roughly 180 - 200 million years ago, just before the first dinosaurs evolved. Mammals themselves evolved from a group or reptiles which exhibited mammal-like traits. One of them was specialized teeth. Reptiles tend to have teeth all the same shape. The mammal-like reptiles evolved tiny teeth in front of the jaw and two pairs of over sized fangs along the the sides. Like modern mammals, the head was large in proportion to the rest of the body. The jaws were also evolving another mammal trait, the ability to move sideways. Despite the lack of specialized teeth, acute hearing and the ability to chew, the dinosaurs evolved an adaptation which made them far more successful than mammals--modified leg bones. These limbs could be articulated directly under their bodies. This enabled the legs to support more weight, since the limbs were now under the body instead of at the sides. Then dinosaurs did something which secured their dominance for the next 120 million years - they began to stand on two legs. Although the back was still parallel to the ground, running on two legs greatly increased the dinosaur's speed. Mammals could simply not compete with swift, giant predators and were forced to remain small, and most became nocturnal to evade dinosaurs which were probably active during the day. Despite that they managed to survive which allowed the further evolution of mammals into us, humans.

Imagine Two Artificial Satellites Orbiting Earth At The Same Distance. One Satellite Has A Greater Mass Than The Other One? Whic
Bad White [126]

After reading this whole question, I feel like I've already
earned 5 points !

-- Two satellites at the same distance, different masses:

The forces of gravity between two objects are directly
proportional to the product of the objects' masses.  In
other words, the gravitational forces between the Earth
and an object on its surface are proportional to the mass of
the object.  In other words, people with more mass weigh more
on the Earth, and the Earth weighs more on them. 

If the satellites are both at the same distance from Earth,
then the Earth pulls on the one with more mass with greater
force, and also the one with more mass pulls on the Earth
with greater force.

-- Two satellites with the same mass, at different distances:

The forces of gravity between two objects are inversely
proportional to the square of the distance between them. 
In other words, the gravitational forces between the Earth
and an object are inversely proportional to the square of
the distance between the object and the center of the Earth. 

If the satellites both have the same mass, then the Earth
pulls on the nearer one with greater force, and also the
nearer one pulls on the Earth with greater force.

-- Resistor in a circuit when the voltage changes:

The resistance depends on how the resistor was manufactured. 
Its resistance is marked on it, and doesn't change.  It remains
the same whether the voltage changes, the current changes,
the time of day changes, the cost of oil changes, etc.

If you increase the voltage in the circuit where that resistor is
installed, the current through the resistor increases.  If the current
remains constant, then you can be sure that somebody snuck over
to your circuit when you weren't looking, and they either installed
another resistor in series with the original one to make the total
resistance bigger, or else they snipped the original one out of the
circuit and quickly connected one with more resistance in its place.

If the angle of incidence of a light source to a shiny surface is 30 degrees, what will the angle
Virty [35]
<h3>Answer: D) 30</h3>

Angle of incidence always equals angle of reflection. Think of a tennis ball being hit into a wall. The ball will bounce off at the same angle that it approached with. The angles mentioned are formed through the line called the "normal", which is the line perpendicular to the surface.

Consider a 4-m-long, 4-m-wide, and 1.5-m-high above-the-ground swimming pool that is filled with water to the rim. (a) Determine
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

44100 N

Explanation:

Each wall will have dimension of 4 m x 1.5 m

Whole force will act on central point of wall situated at a depth of 1.5 /2 = .75m

pressure at CM = h d g , h = .75 , d ( density of water = 10³ )

pressure at CM = .75 x 10³ x 9.8

= 7350 N / m²

Total force on each wall

= pressure x area

= 7350 x 4 x 1.5

= 44100 N Ans

b ) If h = 1.5 x 2 = 3

Pressure = hdg

1.5 x 10³ x 9.8

= 14700 N / m²

Force

= pressure x area

14700 x 3 x 4

= 176400 N

Which is 4 times 44100 N

So force will quadruple.

It is so because both area and height have become twice.
