HELPPP PLS BESTIES A pattern of stars that has been named is called a constellation. One winter evening, Jason found the star ca

lled Sirius in the constellation called Canis Major.
If Jason came outside again a few hours later, what would the stars in Canis Major look like?
A. The pattern would be smaller because the stars moved closer together.
B. The pattern would change because each star would have moved in a different direction.
C. The pattern of stars would appear to be in the same place in the sky.

(a) As you ride on a Ferris wheel, your apparent weight is different at the top and at the bottom. Explain. (b) Calculate your a
otez555 [7]

Answer:

a. The component of the net force which make up the apparent weight are added to each other at the bottom and subtracted (the centripetal force from the weight) at the top)

b. Apparent weight at the top is approximately 519.06 N

Apparent weight at the bottom is approximately 558.94 N

Explanation:

a. The apparent weight at the top is different from the apparent weight at the bottom of a moving Ferris wheel because of the opposite direction in which the centripetal force acts at the top and the bottom, which are upwards and downwards respectively, while the weight acts downwards constantly

b. The given parameters are

The radius of the Ferris wheel, r = 7.2 m

The period for one complete revolution, t = 28 seconds

The angle covered in one revolution, θ = 2·π radian

The mass of the person riding on the Ferris wheel, the passenger  = 55 kg

Therefore, we have;

The angular speed, ω = Δθ/Δt = 2·π/(28)

From which we have;

Centripetal force, F_c = m × ω² × r

Substituting the known values, we have F_c = 55 kg × (2·π/(28 s))² × 7.2 m ≈ 19.94 N

The centripetal force, F_c = 19.94 N always acting outward from the center

Weight = Mass × Acceleration due to gravity

The weight of the passenger = 55 kg × 9.8 m/s² = 539 N

The weight of the passenger = 539 N always acting downwards

At the top of the Ferris wheel the the centripetal force is acting upwards and the weight is acting downwards

Therefore;

The net force, which is the apparent weight of the passenger at the top F_{NET_{Top}} = 539 N - 19.94 N ≈ 519.06 N

Apparent weight at the top ≈ 519.06 N

At the bottom of the Ferris wheel the weight is acting downwards and the centripetal force is also acting downwards

Therefore;

The net force at the bottom, which is the apparent weight of the passenger at the bottom F_{NET_{bottom}} = 539 N + 19.94 N ≈ 558.94 N

Apparent weight at the bottom ≈ 558.94 N.

Unpolarized light is incident upon two ideal polarizing filters that do not have their transmission axes aligned. If 14% of the
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

A) 58 degree

Explanation:

When unpolarized light passing through first polarizer then the intensity of light becomes half as it will get polarized

So let say the intensity of unpolarized light is "Io" then after passing through first polarizer the intensity will become half

Now when this polarized light passing through another polarizer then the intensity of light is given by Malus law

As per Malus law if the angle between two polarizer axis is inclined at some angle

then it is given as

I = I_0 cos^2\theta

0.14I_0 = 0.5I_0cos^2\theta

0.28 = cos^2\theta

\theta = 58 degree

A strong lightning bolt transfers an electric charge of about 16 C to Earth (or vice versa). How many electrons are transferred?
zzz [600]

Answer:

Number of electrons, n=9.98\times 10^{19}

Explanation:

A strong lightning bolt transfers an electric charge of about 16 C to Earth, q = 16 C

We need to find the number of electrons that transferred. Let there are n electrons transferred. It is given by using quantization of electric charge as :

q = ne

n=\dfrac{q}{e}

e is elemental charge

n=\dfrac{16}{1.602\times 10^{-19}}

n=9.98\times 10^{19}

So, there are 9.98\times 10^{19} electrons that gets transferred. Hence, this is the required solution.
