Answer:

Sinkhole lakes in Florida typically occur in areas with a thin layer of soil overlying limestone, hi areas with impermeable clay soil, a lake might be perched (the lake level is maintained naturally above groundwater level, Fig. 3). The shapes of sinkhole lakes often show how they are formed....

If you stood on a planet with four times the mass of Earth, and twice Earth's radius, how much would you weigh?

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

1/4 times your earth's weight

Explanation:

assuming the Mass of earth = M

Radius of earth = R

∴ the mass of the planet= 4M

the radius of the planet = 4R

gravitational force of earth is given as = $\frac{GM}{R^{2} }$

where G is the gravitational constant

Gravitational force of the planet = $\frac{G4M}{(4R)^{2} }$

= $\frac{G4M}{16R^{2} }$

= $\frac{GM}{4R^{2} }$

recall, gravitational force of earth is given as = $\frac{GM}{R^{2} }$

∴Gravitational force of planet = 1/4 times the gravitational force of the earth

you would weigh 1/4 times your earth's weight

g We saw in class that in a pendulum the string does no work. We also saw that the normal force does no work on an object slidin

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

From question (a) and (b) the pendulum motion is perpendicular to the force so the normal force will do no work and the tension in the string of the pendulum will not work

$i.e Normal \ Force(N) = mg cos \theta$

And $\theta = 90$ so

$N = 0$

An example will be a where a stone is attached to the end of a string and is made to move in a circular motion while keeping the other end of the string in a fixed position

A dog walking along a surface which has friction, here the frictional force would acting in the direction of the motion and this would do positive work

calculate the time rate of change in air density during expiration. Assume that the lung has a total volume of 6000mL, the diame

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The time rate of change in air density during expiration is 0.01003kg/m³-s

Explanation:

Given that,

Lung total capacity V = 6000mL = 6 × 10⁻³m³

Air density p = 1.225kg/m³
