Answer:

F = 1263.03 N

Explanation:s

given,                      

mass of the disk thrower = 100 Kg

mass of the disk = 2 Kg                

angular speed of the disk  = 4 rev/s

arm outstretched = 1 m                  

centripetal force of the disk in the circular path

F = m ω² r                        

ω = 4 x 2 x π        

ω = 25.13 rad/s

F = m ω² r                      

F = 2 x 25.13² x 1

F = 1263.03 N                                              

hence, centripetal force equal to the F = 1263.03 N

Which of the following properties of water help to explain why icebergs float in the ocean?
crimeas [40]
The reason why icebergs float in the ocean has to do with temperature. Icebergs are colder than the ocean water and therefore the cold water is less dense than the warm water and this causes the Iceberg to float.

What does convection mean
Sladkaya [172]
Convection is the movement caused within a fluid by the tendency of hotter and therefore less dense material to rise, and colder, denser material to sink under the influence of gravity, which consequently results in transfer of heat

A circuit with a 60 V battery, a 7 Ω resistor, a resistor with 0.2 A across it, and another 7 Ω resistor in series. What is the
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

28.6 ohm

Explanation:

there is a 3rd resistor in series. voltage drop across the resistors will be equal to 60v

7*.2+7*.2 +.2x = 60

2.8+.2x = 60

.2x = 57.2

x = 28.6
