Mary starts at the edge of a circular platform that is slowly rotating on a frictionless axle. She then walks towards the opposi
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The motion of Mary along the circular path is a centripetal.

As Mary moves from one edge of the circular platform to the other edge, she is covering a distance which is the radius of the circular path at a velocity.

According to the relationship

w = v/r where

w is the angular velocity

r is the radius

v is the linear velocity

Initially, before Mary starts, her linear speed is zero and her angular velocity is also zero. As she move towards the opposite edge, she is covering a distance of radius r. According to the formula, increase in radius will leads to decrease in her angular velocity and vice versa. As Mary starts moving towards the centre of the circular path, her angular velocity increases, at the centre of the platform, her angular velocity is at maximum at this point. As she moves further from the center to the other edge, her angular velocity decreases due to increase in distance covered across the circular path.

A distant planet with a mass of (7.2000x10^26) has a moon with a mass of (5.0000x10^23). The distance between the planet and the
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

This is a simple gravitational force problem using the equation:

F_g=\frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2} where F is the gravitational force, G is the universal gravitational constant, the m's are the masses of the2 objects, and r is the distance between the centers of the masses. I am going to state G to 3 sig fig's so that is the number of sig fig's we will have in our answer. If we are solving for the gravitational force, we can fill in everything else where it goes. Keep in mind that I am NOT rounding until the very end, even when I show some simplification before the final answer.

Filling in:

F_g=\frac{(6.67*19^{-11})(7.2000*10^{26})(5.0000*10^{23})}{(6.10*10^{11})^2} I'm going to do the math on the top and then on the bottom and divide at the end.

F_g=\frac{2.4012*10^{40}}{3.721*10^{23}} and now when I divide I will express my answer to the correct number of sig dig's:

Fg= 6.45 × 10¹⁶ N
