Answer:

v = 18.84 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

The length of the string, r = 1.5 m (it will act as radius)

The rubber stopper makes 120 complete circles every minute.

Since, 1 minute = 60 seconds

It means, its frequency is 2 circles every second.

Let we need to find the average speed of the rubber stopper. It can be calculated as follows :

v=\dfrac{d}{T}

d is distance, d=2\pi r and 1/T = f (frequency)

v=2\pi rf\\\\=2\pi \times 1.5\times 2\\\\=18.84\ m/s

So, the average speed of the rubber stopper is 18.84 m/s.

Alfred Wegener believed that all of the continents were originally attached! By looking at the map, you can see that Africa and South America look like they were once joined. This 'super continent' was known as Pangaea. He also found fossils that proved his point.
Hope this helps :)

E                  S                                                               *

The "E" represents Earth, "S" represent Sun, and the "*" represents the nearest star(which is Proxima Centauri).

The main thing to worry about here is units, so ill label everything out.
D'e,s'(Distance between earth and sun) = .<span>00001581 light years
D'e,*'(Distance between earth and Proxima) = </span><span>4.243 light years

Now this is where it gets fun, we need to put all the light years into centimeters.(theres alot)
In one light year, there are </span>9.461 * 10^17 centimeters.(the * in this case means multiplication) or 946,100,000,000,000,000 centimeters.

To convert we multiply the light years we found by the big number.
D'e,s'(Distance between earth and sun) = 1.496 * 10^13 centimeters<span>
D'e,*'(Distance between earth and Proxima) = </span><span>4.014 * 10^18 centimeters
</span>
Now we scale things down, we treat 1.496 * 10^13 centimeters as a SINGLE centimeter, because that's the distance between the earth and the sun. So all we have to do is divide (4.014 * 10^18 ) by (<span>1.496 * 10^13 ).
Why? because that how proportions work.

As a result, you get a mere 268335.7 centimeters.

To put that into perspective, that's only about 1.7 miles

A lot of my numbers came from google, so they are estimations and are not perfect, but its hard to be on really large scales.</span>
