The Earth revolves (orbits) around the Sun in one year. The Earth's rotation axis is tilted relative to the plane of its orbit around the Sun. This tilt of the Earth is responsible for the seasons as the Earth orbits the Sun. The Sun provides energy that sustains all life on Earth.
Answer:
The speed of the animals is 1.64m/s.
Explanation:
Let us work with variables and call the mass of the two rats 
and 
, and the length of the rod 
.
Using the law of conservation of energy, which says the potential energies of the rats must equal their kinetic energies, we know that when the rod swings to the vertical position,
,
solving for 
, we get:
Putting in the values for , , 
, and we get:
Therefore, as the rod swings through the vertical position , the speed of the rats is 1.64 m/s.
The acceleration that the same force will provide if both masses are tied together is; 6.0 m/s².
<h3>How to find the Acceleration?</h3>
We are given;
Force; F = 5 N
Acceleration of the first mass, a₁ = 8.0 m/s²
Acceleration of the second mass, a₂ = 24 m/s²
Formula for force is;
F = ma
Let us find both masses; m₁ and m₂.
m₁ = F/a₁
m₂ = F/a₂
Thus;
m₁ = 5/8 kg
m₂ = 5/24 kg
Total mass is; m = m₁ + m₂
m = 5/8 + 5/24
m = 15 + 5/24
m = 20/24 kg
Thus, acceleration if they are both tied together is;
a = F/m
a = 5/(20/24)
a = 6.0 m/s².
