1) Andrea and Chuck are riding on a merry-go-round. Andrea rides on a horse at the outer rim of the circular platform, twice as

far from the center of the circular platform as Chuck, who rides on an inner horse. When the merry-go-round is rotating at a constant angular speed, Andrea's tangential speed is which of the following?a) twice Chuck's.b) the same as Chuck's.c) half of Chuck's.d) impossible to determine.2) When the merry go round is rotating at a constant angular speed, Andrea's tangential speed is:______.a) twice Chuck's.b) the same as Chuck's.c) half of Chuck's.d) impossible to determine.

Explanation:

The tangential speed of Andrea is given by :

v=r\omega

Where

r is radius of the circular path

ω is angular speed

The merry-go-round is rotating at a constant angular speed. Let the new distance from the center of the circular platform is r'

r' = 2r

New angular speed,

v'=r'\omega'\\\\v'=(2r)\omega\\\\v'=2r\omega\\\\v'=2v

New angular speed is twice that of the Chuck's speed.

The temperature at a point (x, y) on a flat metal plate is given by T(x, y) = 54/(7 + x2 + y2), where T is measured in °C and x,
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

dt/dx = -0.373702

dt/dy =  -1.121107

Explanation:

Given data

T(x, y) = 54/(7 + x² + y²)

to find out

rate of change of temperature with respect to distance

solution

we know function

T(x, y) = 54 /( 7 + x² + y²)

so derivative it x and y direction i.e

dt/dx = -54× 2x / (7 +x² + y²)²    .........................1

dt/dy = -54× 2y / (7 + x² + y²)²      .........................2

now put the value point (1,3) as x = 1 and y = 3 in equation 1 and 2

dt/dx = -54× 2(1) / (7 +(1)² + (3)²)²  

dt/dx = -0.373702

and

dt/dy =  -54× 2(3) / (7 + (1)² + (3)²)²

dt/dy =  -1.121107

The data table shows some data related to the Sun and the planets in our solar system.
AlexFokin [52]
You have selected the correct answer and blobbed over it with your pencil.

I assume you must have looked at Saturn's average distance, found 1427,
divided that number by 6, got 237 and change, then looked at the others,
and found that 228 was the only one that's anywhere close.

A subway train accelerates from rest at one station at a rate of 1.30 m/s^2 for half of the distance to the next station, then d
Minchanka [31]

This problems a perfect application for this acceleration formula:

         Distance = (1/2) (acceleration) (time)² .

During the speeding-up half:     1,600 meters = (1/2) (1.3 m/s²) T²
During the slowing-down half:    1,600 meters = (1/2) (1.3 m/s²) T²

Pick either half, and divide each side by  0.65 m/s²: 

                         T² = (1600 m) / (0.65 m/s²)

                         T = square root of (1600 / 0.65) seconds

Time for the total trip between the stations is double that time.

                         T =  2 √(1600/0.65) = <em>99.2 seconds</em>  (rounded)

What is an unbalanced force
Butoxors [25]
There's no such thing as "an unbalanced force".

If all of the forces acting on an object all add up to zero, then we say that
<span>the group </span>of forces is balanced.  When that happens, the group of forces
has the same effect on the object as if there were no forces on it at all. 

An example: 
Two people with exactly equal strength are having a tug-of-war.  They pull
with equal force in opposite directions.  Each person is sweating and straining,
grunting and groaning, and exerting tremendous force.  But their forces add up
to zero, and the rope goes nowhere.  The <u>group</u> of forces on the rope is balanced.

On the other hand, if one of the offensive linemen is pulling on one end of
the rope, and one of the cheerleaders is pulling on the other end, then their
forces don't add up to zero, because even though they're opposite, they're
not equal.  The <u>group</u> of forces is <u>unbalanced</u>, and the rope moves.

A group of forces is either balanced or unbalanced.  A single force isn't.
