Answer: The sun's rays strike Earth's surface most directly at the equator. This focuses the rays on a small area. Because the rays hit more directly, the area is heated more.

A tall, cylindrical chimney falls over when its base is ruptured. Treat the chimney as a thin rod of length 53.2 m. At the insta
rusak2 [61]
From an energy balance, we can use this formula to solve for the angular speed of the chimney

ω^2 = 3g / h sin θ

Substituting the given values:
ω^2 = 3 (9.81) / 53.2 sin 34.1
ω^2 = 0.987 /s

The formula for radial acceleration is:
a = rω^2

So,
a = 53.2 (0.987) = 52.494 /s^2

The linear velocity is:
v^2 = ar
v^2 = 52.949 (53.2) = 2816.887

The tangential acceleration is:
a = r v^2
a = 53.2 (2816.887)
a = 149858.378 m/s^2

If the tangential acceleration is equal to g:
g = r^2 3g / sin θ
Solving for θ
θ = 67°

If the work required to stretch a spring 1 ft beyond its natural length is 12 ft-lb, how much work is needed to stretch the same
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:W=\frac{3}{4} ft-lb

Explanation:

Given

Work required to stretch 1 ft is 12 ft-lb

and we have to find work required to stretch 3 in.

i.e. \frac{1}{4} ft

12=\frac{1}{2}K\left ( 1\right )^2 ------(1)

W=\frac{1}{2}k\left ( \frac{1}{4}\right )^2-----(2)

divide (1)&(2)

\frac{12}{W}=\left ( \frac{4}{1}\right )^2

W=\frac{12}{4\times 4}

W=\frac{3}{4} ft-lb

Lab: Equivalent Resistance of Series and Parallel Circuits
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

Since there is only one path for the charges to flow through, the current is the same through each resistor. The equivalent resistance of a set of resistors in a series connection is equal to the algebraic sum of the individual resistances.
