Answer:

D. Newton's first law

Explanation:

Newton's first law of inertia says that an object will remain how it is, unless affected by an outside force. In this case, the plates want to remain stationary(not moving). Therefore, if you pull the table cloth fast enough, the force of friction produced will be small enough so that the Inertia of the plates will overcome the force of friction.

When you take your 1900-kg car out for a spin, you go around a corner of radius 55 m with a speed of 15 m/s. The coefficient of

pentagon [3]

Answer:

7772.72N

Explanation:

When u draw your FBD, you realize you have 3 forces (ignore the force the car produces), gravity, normal force and static friction. You also realize that gravity and normal force are in our out of the page (drawn with a frame of reference above the car). So that leaves you with static friction in the centripetal direction.

Now which direction is the static friction, assume that it is pointing inward so

Fc=Fs=mv²/r=1900*15²/55=427500/55=7772.72N

Since the car is not skidding we do not have kinetic friction so there can only be static friction. One reason we do not use μFn is because that is the formula for maximum static friction, and the problem does not state there is maximum static friction.

Why are some consolation visible to New York State observers at midnight during April , but not visible at midnight during Octob

Svetach [21]

"Midnight" means looking away from the Sun. But in 6 months from April to October the earth goes halfway around the Sun. So midnight in April and midnight in October are exactly opposite directions.

The Event Horizon Telescope needs a 22 micro-arcsecond resolution to view the event horizon regions around black holes. If the a

Answer:

14869817.395 m

Explanation:

$\theta$ =22 microarcsecond

λ = Wavelength = 1.3 mm

Converting to radians we get

$22\times 10^{-6}\frac{\pi}{180\times 3600}\ radians$

From Rayleigh Criterion

$\theta=1.22\frac{\lambda}{D}\\\Rightarrow D=1.22\frac{\lambda}{\theta}\\\Rightarrow D=1.22\frac{1.3\times 10^{-3}}{22\times 10^{-6}\frac{\pi}{180\times 3600}}\\\Rightarrow D=14869817.395\ m$

Diameter of the effective primary objective is 14869817.395 m

It is not possible to build one telescope with a diameter of 14869817.395 m. But, we need this type of telescope. So, astronomers use an array of radio telescopes to achieve a virtual diameter in order to observe objects that are the size of supermassive black hole's event horizon.

From the center of the Earth to the moon, what should the orbital radius of such satellite be in order to stay over the same poi

yulyashka [42]

In order to have a period that matches the Earth's rotation, a satellite must be in a circular orbit, and 42,164 km from the center of the Earth.

But that's not quite enough to make sure that it always stays over the same point on the Earth's surface (and appears motionless in the sky). For that to happen, the satellite's orbit has to be directly over the Equator.

The Moon has nothing to do with any of this.
