Answer:

d- Earth revolves around the sun.

Explanation:

Earth rotation can be defined as the amount of time taken by planet earth to complete its spinning movement on its axis.

This ultimately implies that, the rotation of earth refers to the time taken by earth to rotate once on its axis. One spinning movement of the earth on its axis takes approximately 24 hours to complete with respect to the sun.

On the other hand, earth revolution can be defined as a complete trip along a path around the sun. This path is known as an orbit and it typically takes the Earth 365¼ days to complete it's journey around the Sun.

When a constellation (stars) changes its position in the sky, at the same time of the evening and over a period of several weeks; it ultimately implies or is an evidence that Earth revolves around the sun.

A 2.964 kilogram truck strikes a fence at 7.00 meters/second and comes to
Makovka662 [10]

10.92N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of truck = 2.964kg

Velocity of truck = 7m/s

Time taken = 1.9s

Unknown:

Average force on the car = ?

Solution:

According to newton's third law of motion "action and reaction are equal and opposite".

The force with which the truck struck the fence is the same as the force the fence acted on the truck with but in another direction.

 From newton's second law:

      Force  = mass x acceleration

      We know that acceleration is the change in velocity with time;

   acceleration = \frac{change in velocity }{time }

   Force =  mass x  \frac{change in velocity }{time }

  Force = \frac{2.964 x 7}{1.9} = 10.92N

Which component of weight is cause for S.H.M of bob simple pendulum
jeka57 [31]

Explanation:

The Simple Pendulum. A simple pendulum is defined to have a point mass, also known as the pendulum bob, which is suspended from a string of length L with negligible mass ((Figure)). Here, the only forces acting on the bob are the force of gravity (i.e., the weight of the bob) and tension from the string.

What is the difference between a theory and a law?
algol [13]

A theory is a system of ideas that isn't exactly proven to be true fully. A law is a description of whatever scientific phenomena you're studying. All you need to know is a law describes, and a theory explains.

During a single-replacement reaction, a more-active metal will replace a less-active metal in a compound. Which single-replaceme
son4ous [18]

Answer:

Mg will replace Ag in a compound

Explanation:

A single replacement reaction is driven by the position of ions on the activity series.

As a rule of thumb, the position of metal ions on the activity series determines their reactivity.

Metal ions that are above another are more reactive and they will displace those that are lower.

Generally, activity increases as we go up the group.

Mg ions are higher than Ag ions on the series so, Mg will displace Ag from a solution.

Force → F = ( − 8.0 N ) ˆ i + ( 6.0 N ) ˆ j acts on a particle with position vector → r = ( 3.0 m ) ˆ i + ( 4.0 m ) ˆ j . What a
andrey2020 [161]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Force, F=(-8\ N)i+(6\ N)j

Position vector, r=(3i+4j)\ m

(a) The torque on the particle about the origin is given by :

\tau=F\times r\\\\\tau=(-8i+6j)\times (3i+4j)\\\\\tau=(-50k)\ N-m

(b) To find the angle between r and F use dot product formula as :

F{\cdot} r=|F||r|\ \cos\theta\\\\\cos\theta=\dfrac{F{\cdot} r}{|F| |r|}\\\\\cos\theta=\dfrac{(-8i+6j){\cdot} (3i+4j)}{\sqrt{(-8)^2+6^2} \times \sqrt{3^2+4^2} }\\\\\cos\theta=\dfrac{-24+24}{\sqrt{(-8)^2+6^2} \times \sqrt{3^2+4^2} }\\\\\cos\theta=0\\\\\theta=90^{\circ}

Hence, this is the required solution.
