two children sit on a merry go round. on sits 0.5 m from the center and the other sits 3 m from the center. Which child has grea

ter linear speed?

i would say that the child with more linear speed is the cild that is 3 meters away from the center of the merry go round. because the child that is 0.5 meters from the center of the merry go round is less linear because the steering of the merry go round is started from the outer part of the merry go round so it would make more sense that the child that is 3 meters from the center of the merry go round would be more linear in speed.

hope this helps!

Ari uses a tool called calipers to measure the diameter of different cylinders he is using in an experiment. His old calipers co
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

Explanation:

Different measuring instruments have different level of precision . For example , our usual scale can measure upto 1 mm. Callipers can measure upto .1 mm. screw gauge can measure upto .01 mm.etc The deeper it can measure , the more precise it is. Hence screw gauge is most precise among the three.

On this basis we can say that , new caliper is less precise than old one.

Accuracy tells us about our result , how close our result is to the true measurement. It is dependent on  the manner in which  we take reading , So measuring methods , rather than measuring instruments , decide the accuracy of our result.

Hence we can say that the new caliper is less precise only.

A lady walks 10 m to the north, then she turns and continues walking 30 m due east.
ANEK [815]

Answer:

The distance covered is 40 m and the displacement is 31,6m.

Explanation:

The distance covered is the sum of the two distances (10+30). The displacement is equal to the distance of the hipotenusa of the triangle that the two distances (10 m to north and 30m to east) create. Using the Pythagoras theorem the displacent is equal to the Square root of (30^2 +10^2) .

An object of mass 1.5 kg rests on a shelf where it has a gravitational potential energy of 7 joules. An object of mass 4.5 kg is
bija089 [108]

Answer:

C. 21 Joules

Explanation:

We apply the formula to calculate the potential energy (Ep):

Ep=m*g*h

Where:

Ep : potential energy in Joules (J)

m :mass in kilograms (kg)

g  acceleration due to gravity  (m/s²)

h: height in meters (m)

Calculation of the height (h)

Ep = m*g*h

7 = (1.5 )*(9.8) *(h )

7 = (14.7) (h )

h = 7 /  (14.7)

h= 0.476 m

Gravitational potential energy of the second object

Ep = m*g*h

Ep = (4.5 )*(9.8) *(0.476 )

Ep = (4.5 )*(9.8) *(0.476 )

Ep = 21 J

What’s the kinetic energy of the object? Use .
kirill115 [55]
We have: K.E. = mv² / 2
here, m = 4 Kg
v = 9 m/s

Substitute their values into the expression:
K.E. = (4)(9)² / 2
K.E. = (4)(81) / 2
K.E. = 324 / 2
K.E. = 162 Joules

In short, Your Answer would be 162 J

Hope this helps!

A point charge is placed at the center of a spherical Gaussian surface. The electricflux ΦEischangedif(a) a second point charge
Simora [160]

Answer:

(b) the point charge is moved outside the sphere

Explanation:

Gauss' Law states that the electric flux of a closed surface is equal to the enclosed charge divided by permittivity of the medium.

\int\vec{E}d\vec{a} = \frac{Q_{enc}}{\epsilon_0}

According to this law, any charge outside the surface has no effect at all. Therefore (a) is not correct.

If the point charge is moved off the center, the points on the surface close to the charge will have higher flux and the points further away from the charge will have lesser flux. But as a result, the total flux will not change, because the enclosed charge is the same.

Therefore, (c) and (d) is not correct, because the enclosed charge is unchanged.
