What is the advantage of having nuclear physics?

LekaFEV [45]

Nuclear physics is the study of the protons and neutrons at the centre of an atom and the interactions that hold them together in a space just a few femtometres (10-15 metres) across. It would be advantageous because we understand how atoms behave. Hope this answers the question.

A student is considering doing a complete repeated measures design experiment involving motor skills. The student's advisor has

Lelu [443]

Answer:

c. ABBA counterbalancing 

Explanation:

The student should not use the method because it is a progressive error management technique for each subject by introducing all treatment circumstances twice, first in one sequence, then in the other (AB, BA) by subject counterbalancing.

If participants experience conditions more than once, they experience the conditions first in one order, then the opposite order.

A 1500-kg car locks its brakes and skids to a stop on a slippery horizontal road, leaving skid marks that are 15 m long. How muc

Harman [31]

Answer:

$E=88200\ J$

Explanation:

Given:

mass of car, $m=1500\ kg$

distance of skidding after the application of brakes, $d=15\ m$

coefficient of kinetic friction, $\mu_k=0.4$

So, the energy dissipated during the skidding of car:

Frictional force:

$f=\mu_k.N$

where N = normal reaction by ground on the car

$f=0.4\ties 1500\times 9.8$

$f=5880\ N$

Now from the work-energy equivalence:

$E=f.d$

$E=5880\times 15$

$E=88200\ J$ is the dissipated energy.

Asteroids are between 1000 km and less than 10 m in diameter. What is the diameter of most asteroids?

e-lub [12.9K]

This question needs research to be answered. From the given information alone it can't be answered without making wild assumptions.

Ideally, you need to take a look at a distribution (or a histogram) of asteroid diameters, identify the "mode" of such a distribution, and find the corresponding diameter. That value will be the answer.

I am attaching one such histogram on asteroid diameters from the IRAS asteroid catalog I could find online. (In order to get a single histogram, you need to add the individual curves in the figure first). Eyeballing this sample, I'd say the mode is somewhere around 10km, so the answer would be: the diameter of most asteroid from the IRAS asteroid catalog is about 10km.

A playground merry-go-round of radius 2.00 m has a moment of inertia I = 275 kg · m2 and is rotating about a frictionless vertic

ryzh [129]

Answer:

0.2932 rad/s

Explanation:

r = Radius = 2 m

$I_i$ = Initial angular momentum = $275\ kgm^2$

$\omega_i$ = Initial angular velocity = 14 rev/min

$I_f$ = Final angular momentum

$\omega_f$ = Final angular velocity

Here the angular momentum of the system is conserved

$I_i\omega_i=I_f\omega_f\\\Rightarrow 275\times 14\times \dfrac{2\pi}{60}=(275+275(2)^2)\omega_f\\\Rightarrow \omega_f=\dfrac{275\times 14\times \dfrac{2\pi}{60}}{275+275(2)^2}\\\Rightarrow \omega_f=0.2932\ rad/s$

The final angular velocity is 0.2932 rad/s
