The weight of air measured in units of force per area is called air pressure.
Answer:
Rest and motion are relative terms. In simple terms, an object that changes its position is said to be in motion while the opposite action causes an object to be at rest.
Explanation:
Answer:
- <em>Abbie’s acceleration is (1/2) Zak’s acceleration.</em>
Explanation
1. <u>Data</u>:
a) ω = constant
b) Abbie: r₁ = 1 m
c) Zak: r₂ = 2 m
d) Ac₁ = ? Ac₂
2. <u>Formulae</u>
3. <u>Solution</u>:
a) Abbie:
b) Zack:
c) Divide Ac₁ / Ac₂
- Ac₁ / Ac₂ = ω² (1m) / [ω² (2m) ] = 1/2
⇒ Ac₁ = (1/2) Ac₂ = Ac₂ / 2 = 0.5 Ac₂
Answer:
False
Explanation:
Let's consider the definition of the angular momentum,

where
is the moment of inertia for a rigid body. Now, this moment of inertia could change if we change the axis of rotation, because "r" is defined as the distance between the puntual mass and the nearest point on the axis of rotation, but still it's going to have some value. On the other hand,
so
unless
║
.
In conclusion, a rigid body could rotate about certain axis, generating an angular momentum, but if you choose another axis, there could be some parts of the rigid body rotating around the new axis, especially if there is a projection of the old axis in the new one.
