Explain why Earth stays in constant rotation.​

Physics
1 answer:
lesantik [10]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: As Earth rotates, the Moon's gravity causes the oceans to seem to rise and fall. ... There is a little bit of friction between the tides and the turning Earth, causing the rotation to slow down just a little. As Earth slows, it lets the Moon creep away.

Explain how an object can have force acting on it but not be acceleration?
VladimirAG [237]

That's what happens if there is more than one force acting on the
object, and the forces are balanced, that is, they all "cancel out".

Think of the rope in a Tug-'o-War.  It has 50 musclebound football guys
all pulling the rope to the west, and 150 strong cheerleaders all pulling
the rope to the east.  The total force to the west is exactly equal to the
total force to the east, and the rope doesn't move at all.  The forces on it
are balanced, and the effect on its motion is the same as if there were  
no force on it at all.

A 3.00-m rod is pivoted about its left end. A force of 7.80 N is applied perpendicular to the rod at a distance of 1.60 m from t
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

The net torque about the pivot is and the answer is 'c'

c. T_{net}=8.58

Explanation:

T=F*d

The torque is the force apply in a distance so it is the moment so depends on the way to be put it the signs so:

T_1=F_1*d_1

T_1=7.8N*1.6m=12.48N*m

T_2=F_2*d_2

T_2=2.60N**cos(30)*3.0m

T_2= - 3.9 N*m

Now to find the net Torque is the summation of both torques

T_{net}=T_1+T_2

T_{net}=12.48N-3.9N=8.58N

How is amplitude changed in an instrument or tuning fork
azamat

Amplitude is affected by the energy wave in the instrument. High energy wave means high amplitude and low energy wave means low amplitude.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The amplitude of a periodic variable is a measure of its change over a single period. There are various definitions of amplitude, which are all functions of the magnitude of the differences between the variable's extreme values.

The amount of energy carried by a wave is related to the amplitude of the wave. Amplitude of an instrument is directly affected by the wave of the energy in the instruments. High energy wave means high amplitude and low energy wave means low amplitude in the instrument.

Dierdre drew a diagram to compare the three types of mirrors.
Sholpan [36]

<em>Labels that belong in the marked ares X, Y & Z include;</em>

X: Curves outward

Y: Image may be smaller than object

Z: Image is always virtual

<u>Since the rays never meet, the images formed by convex mirrors are always virtual and smaller than the object, and since they are smaller, the images appear to be further than they actually are.</u>

You drop your frozen rock from a green bridge. The frozen rock starts from rest (initial velocity = 0ms). The rock takes 4.3s to
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

The velocity of the frozen rock at t = 1.5\,s is -14.711 meters per second.

Explanation:

The frozen rock experiments a free fall, which is a type of uniform accelerated motion due to gravity and air viscosity and earth's rotation effect are neglected. In this case, we need to find the final velocity (v), measured in meters per second, of the frozen rock at given instant and whose kinematic formula is:

v = v_{o} + g\cdot t (Eq. 1)

Where:

v_{o} - Initial velocity, measured in meters per second.

g - Gravity acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

t - Time, measured in seconds.

If we get that v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}, g = -9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} and 1.5\,s, then final velocity is:

v = 0\,\frac{m}{s}+\left(-9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right) \cdot (1.5\,s)

v = -14.711\,\frac{m}{s}

The velocity of the frozen rock at t = 1.5\,s is -14.711 meters per second.
