Two ice-skaters are skating in circles on a frozen pond. Maria is making large circles with a radius of 12 m and skating 4.5 m/s

. Her friend, Samantha, is making smaller circles with a radius of 6 m but is not skating as quickly, going only 3.8 m/s.
How could each skater increase her centripetal acceleration without changing the size of her path? Explain your reasoning.

A circuit contains two devices that are connected in parallel. If the resistance of one of these devices is 12 ohms and the resi
finlep [7]

<u>Answer</u>

3 Ohms

<u>Explanation</u>

when the resistors are in series, the resistance in the circuit increases. For example, if two resistors, R1 and R2 are in series, the combined resistance is R1+R2.

When connected in parallel, the total resistance is the reciprocal of (1/R1 + 1/R2)

In this case the resistors are in parallel.

Total resistance = (1/12 + 1/4)⁻¹

= (1/3)⁻¹

= 3 Ohms

A turntable is designed to acquire an angular velocity of 32.4 rev/s in 0.5 s, starting from rest.
horrorfan [7]
Well, the acceleration is the difference of speeds divided by the time period. \frac{32.4}{0.5}=64.8rev/s^2.
One rev/s is 2\pi rad/s^2, so our final result is 64.8*2\pi=407.15rad/s^2.

     Using the Universal Gratitation Law, we have:

F= \frac{MmG}{d^2}  \\ MmG=2*10^{20}*(3.84*10^8)^2 \\ MmG=29.4912*10^36
 
     Again applying the formula in the new situation, comes:

F= \frac{MmG}{d^2} \\ F= \frac{29.4912*10^36}{(1.92*10^8)^2} \\ \boxed {F=8*10^{20}}

Number 4

Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. Below is the answer:

sum of Mc = 0 = -Ay(4.2 + 3cos(59)) + (275)(2.1 + 3cos(59)) + M 
<span>- Ay = (M + (275*(2.1 + 3cos(59)))/(4.2 + 3cos(59)) </span>

<span>sum of Ma = 0 = (-275)(2.1) - Cy(4.2 + 3cos(59)) + M </span>
<span>- Cy = (M - (275*2.1))/(4.2 + 3cos(59)) </span>

<span>Ay + Cy = 275 = ((M+1002.41)+(M-577.5))/(5.745) </span>
<span>= (2M + 424.91)/(5.745) </span>

<span>M = ((275*5.745) - 424.91)/2 </span>
<span>= 577.483 which rounds off to 577 </span>

<span>Is it maybe supposed to be Ay - Cy = 275</span>
