Answer:

It's centripetal acceleration is 301.7 m/s²

Explanation:

The formula to be used here is that of the centripetal acceleration which is

ac = rω²

where ac is the centripetal acceleration = ?

ω is the angular velocity = 3 revolutions per second is to be converted to radian per second: 3 × 2π  = 3 × 2 × 3.14 = 18.84 rad/s

r is the radius = 0.85 m

ac = 0.85 × 18.84²

ac = 301.7 m/s²

It's centripetal acceleration is 301.7 m/s²

Explain how the plants of a tropical rain forest contribute to the characteristic hot, humid weather associated with the area. U
Talja [164]

Answer: The atmosphere of trophic rainforest is hot and humid due to high rate of transpiration.

Explanation:

The tropical rainforest is a biome which exhibit rich biodiversity of plants and animals. The average temperatures in this region remain high with warm summer. It remains frost free. The soil is nutrient deficient. Due to hot temperature the rate of transpiration remains high as a result the concentration of the water vapors remain high. This is responsible for increasing the humidity in the atmosphere also this region receives appreciable amount of rainfall annually. The average rainfall range is 200-450 centimeters.

Which statement best explains how a planet affects the orbit of a comet as the comet passes by the planet?
mezya [45]
Comets orbit the sun just like planets do. Except a comet usually has a very elongated orbit. Thanks to the laws of gravity comets obey the same laws. A comets orbit takes it very close to the sun and then far away again.
