Answer:

Nothing is faster than light. Dark is the absence of light, or indeed anything at all. Darkness came before light, so light had to be created to get there. It's like turning on s flashlight in a dark room: the darkness is already there, and an outside source (you/the flashlight) needs to create light.

Explanation: Nothing is faster than light lighting is very fast.

Jeremiah is conducting an investigation about the water cycle. He is given the following

Vlada [557]

The water cycle outlines the continuous water movement in liquid, solid and gaseous state between locations on the Earth's surface.

The glass jar represents the lake while the atmosphere is represented by the space above the water, and the sky is represented by the (clear) plastic wrap

Arrangement description and Processes;

The processes of the water cycle includes;

Evaporation;

Condensation

Precipitation

Sublimation

Runoff

Infiltration

The arrangement of the materials is as follows;

Place the glass jar (the lake) containing water and the lamp (the Sun) side by side, such that the lamp light shines on the water surface

Cover the glass jar by wrapping the plastic wrap (the sky) around it to prevent the escape of water vapor when the water is hot.

Switch on the lamp so that it heats the water by radiation heat transfer

Observed processes;

The processes demonstrated by the above experiment includes;

1) Evaporation: As the water in the glass jar becomes warmer, the level of the water in the jar can be observed to decrease slightly due to evaporation

2) Condensation: Fog formation, Clouds

When hotter, the water surface as seen through the clear plastic wrap becomes less clearer due to evaporation, and condensation of the vapor while floating above the water surface, similar to the clouds seen in the sky.

3. Precipitation: Rain;

The clear plastic wrap covering the top of the glass jar, prevents the movement of the vapor further away, such that the tiny condensed vapor gather together, to form big droplets under the plastic wrap that falls back into the jar, which is similar to the process of rainfall

The above processes are repeated as more water evaporates from the jar condenses on the plastic wrap and falls back into the jar, showing the process by which water is recycled from the lake into the atmosphere and back to the lake.

Torque can cause the angular momentum vector to rotate in UCM. This motion is called ___________.

emmainna [20.7K]

Torque can cause the angular momentum vector to rotate in UCM. This motion is called _Conservation of Angular momentum__________.

Answer:

Conservation of Angular momentum

Explanation:

The motion of an object in a circular path at constant speed is known as uniform circular motion (UCM). An object in UCM is constantly changing direction, and since velocity is a vector and has direction, you could say that an object undergoing UCM has a constantly changing velocity, even if its speed remains constant.

The law of conservation of angular momentum states that when no external torque acts on an object, no change of angular momentum will occur.

Key Points

When an object is spinning in a closed system and no external torques are applied to it, it will have no change in angular momentum.

The conservation of angular momentum explains the angular acceleration of an ice skater as she brings her arms and legs close to the vertical axis of rotation.

If the net torque is zero, then angular momentum is constant or conserved.

Angular Momentum

The conserved quantity we are investigating is called angular momentum. The symbol for angular momentum is the letter L. Just as linear momentum is conserved when there is no net external forces, angular momentum is constant or conserved when the net torque is zero. We can see this by considering Newton’s 2nd law for rotational motion:

τ→=dL→dt, where

τ is the torque. For the situation in which the net torque is zero,

dL→dt=0.

If the change in angular momentum ΔL is zero, then the angular momentum is constant; therefore,

⇒

L =constant

L=constant (when net τ=0).

This is an expression for the law of conservation of angular momentum.

Example and Implications

An example of conservation of angular momentum is seen in an ice skater executing a spin, The net torque on her is very close to zero,

because (1) there is relatively little friction between her skates and the ice, and (2) the friction is exerted very close to the pivot point.

Conservation of angular momentum is one of the key conservation laws in physics, along with the conservation laws for energy and (linear) momentum. These laws are applicable even in microscopic domains where quantum mechanics governs; they exist due to inherent symmetries present in nature.
