No, because the ability to wink can be learned, and abilities that can be learned aren't genetic.

Yes,and because not everyone can wink and often that someone can only wink with one eye only

Mercury has a radial acceleration of 3.96 × 10−2 m/s2 and its orbital period is T = 88 days. What is the radius of Mercury’s orb

Maslowich

Answer: 58,045,522,878.8 meters

Explanation:

Ok, the data we have is

Period = T = 88 days

Radial acceleration = ar = 3.96x10^-2 m/s^2

And we know that the equation for the radial acceleration is:

ar = v^2/r = r*w^2

Where v is the velocity. r is the radius and w is the angular velocity.

And we know that:

w = 2*pi*f

where f is the frequency, and:

T = 1/f.

Then we can write:

w = 2*pi/T

and our equation becomes:

ar = r*(2*pi/T)^2

Now we solve this for r.

First we need to use the same units in both equations, so we want to write T in seconds.

T = 88 days,

A day has 24 hours, and one hour has 3600 seconds:

T = 88*24*3600 s =7,603,200s

Then:

3.96x10^-2 m/s^2 = r*(2*3.14/7,603,200s)^2

r = (3.96x10^-2 m/s^2) /(2*3.14/7,603,200s)^2 = 58,045,522,878.8 meters

You pull straight up on the string of a yo-yo with a force 0.35 N, and while your hand is moving up a distance 0.16 m, the yo-yo

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

a) 0.138J

b) 3.58m/S

c) (1.52J)(I)

Explanation:

a) to find the increase in the translational kinetic energy you can use the relation

$\Delta E_k=W=W_g-W_p$

where Wp is the work done by the person and Wg is the work done by the gravitational force

By replacing Wp=Fh1 and Wg=mgh2, being h1 the distance of the motion of the hand and h2 the distance of the yo-yo, m is the mass of the yo-yo, then you obtain:

$Wp=(0.35N)(0.16m)=0.056J\\\\Wg=(0.062kg)(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})(0.32m)=0.19J\\\\\Delta E_k=W=0.19J-0.056J=0.138J$

the change in the translational kinetic energy is 0.138J

b) the new speed of the yo-yo is obtained by using the previous result and the formula for the kinetic energy of an object:

$\Delta E_k=\frac{1}{2}mv_f^2-\frac{1}{2}mv_o^2$

where vf is the final speed, vo is the initial speed. By doing vf the subject of the formula and replacing you get:

$v_f=\sqrt{\frac{2}{m}}\sqrt{\Delta E_k+(1/2)mv_o^2}\\\\v_f=\sqrt{\frac{2}{0.062kg}}\sqrt{0.138J+1/2(0.062kg)(2.9m/s)^2}=3.58\frac{m}{s}$

the new speed is 3.58m/s

c) in this case what you can compute is the quotient between the initial rotational energy and the final rotational energy

$\frac{E_{fr}}{E_{fr}}=\frac{1/2I\omega_f^2}{1/2I\omega_o^2}=\frac{\omega_f^2}{\omega_o^2}\\\\\omega_f=\frac{v_f}{r}\\\\\omega_o=\frac{v_o}{r}\\\\\frac{E_{fr}}{E_{fr}}=\frac{v_f^2}{v_o^2}=\frac{(3.58m/s)}{(2.9m/s)^2}=1.52J$

hence, the change in Er is about 1.52J times the initial rotational energy

Find the weight of an astronaut whose mass is 75 kg on the moon

gladu [14]

The formula for weight is always weight=mass X gravitational field strength.
We already know the mass is 75kg.
The gravitational field strength on the moon is 1.6N. To find out the weight, we can substitute these values in to the formula.
Weight=75 X 1.6
Weight= 120N
Weight is measured on Neutons as it is a force.

Describe the difference between the velocity graph made walking at a steady rate and the velocity graph made at an increasing ra

levacccp [35]

Answer:

The difference between the velocity graph made walking at a steady rate means that its the same value in time, that means there's no slope on the graph, so its acceleration is 0

On the other hand, if the velocity is increasing with time, the slope of the graph becomes positive, which means that the acceleration of the particle is positive.

a stone with a mass of 2.40 kg is moving with velocity (6.60î − 2.40ĵ) m/s. find the net work (in j) on the stone if its velocit

ch4aika [34]

By the work energy theorem, the total work done on the stone is given by its change in kinetic energy,

$W = \Delta K = \dfrac m2 ({v_2}^2 - {v_1}^2)$

We have

$\vec v_1 = (6.60\,\vec\imath - 2.40\,\vec\jmath)\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s} \implies {v_1}^2 = \|\vec v_1\|^2 = 49.32 \dfrac{\rm m^2}{\rm s^2}$

$\vec v_2 = (8.00\,\vec\imath + 4.00\,\vec\jmath) \dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s} \implies {v_2}^2 = \|\vec v_2\|^2 = 80.0\dfrac{\mathrm m^2}{\mathrm s^2}$

Then the total work is

$W = \dfrac{2.40\,\rm kg}2 \left(80.0\dfrac{\rm m^2}{\rm s^2} - 49.32\dfrac{\rm m^2}{\rm s^2}\right) \approx \boxed{36.8\,\rm J}$
