Answer:
No. Neither the USGS nor any other scientists have ever predicted a major earthquake. We do not know how, and we do not expect to know how any time in the foreseeable future.
Weight of the child m = 50 kg
Radius of the merry -go-around r = 1.50 m
Angular speed w = 3.00 rad/s
(a)Child's centripetal acceleration will be a = w^2 x r = 3^2 x 1.50 => a = 9 x
1.5
Centripetal Acceleration a = 13.5m/sec^2
(b)The minimum force between her feet and the floor in circular path
Circular Path length C = 2 x 3.14 x 1.50 => c = 3 x 3.14 => C = 9.424
Time taken t = 2 x 3.14 / w => t = 6.28 / 3 => t = 2.09
Calculating velocity v = distance / time = 9.424 / 2.09 m/s => v = 4.5 m/s
Calculating force, from equation F x r = mv^2 => F = mv^2 / r => 50 x (4.5)^2
/ 1.5
F = 50 x 3 x 4.5 => F = 150 x 4.5 => F = 675 N
(c)Minimum coefficient of static friction u
F = u x m x g => u = F / m x g => u = 675/ 50 x 9.81 => 1.376
u = 1.376
Hence with the force and the friction coefficient she is likely to stay on merry-go-around.
<span>The flight controls must be held with left aileron up and elevator neutral while taxiing a tricycle-gear equipped airplane with a left quartering tailwind. In aircraft, ailerons are placed on the trailing edge of each wing near the wingtips and can be moved up and down. So when the left aileron is up, the movement of the airplane moves to the left and turns the wheel in a counterclockwise direction while at the same time, the right aileron is down.
