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

What is special about nitrogen, and what is its main function in the atmosphere
Vlad [161]
Nitrogen is the most abundant of the gases present in the atmosphere. 78 percent of the atmospheric air comprises of nitrogen, oxygen makes up for 21 percent and all other gases make up for the remaining one percent. Oxygen is a highly flammable gas and in the absence of nitrogen it would not have been possible to utilize this atmospheric oxygen, hence the presence of nitrogen reduces its flammability and also neutralizes the toxicity of other gases.

A 0.49 m copper rod with a mass of 0.15 kg carries a current of 13 A in the positive y direction. Let upward be the positive dir
Helen [10]

Answer:

Magnetic field, B = 0.23 T          

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of the copper rod, L = 0.49 m

Mass of the copper rod, m = 0.15 kg

Current in rod, I = 13 A (in +ve y direction)

When the rod is placed in magnetic field, the magnetic force is balanced by its weight such that :

BIL=mg\\\\B=\dfrac{mg}{IL}\\\\B=\dfrac{0.15\times 9.8}{13\times 0.49}\\\\B=0.23\ T

So, the magnitude of the minimum magnetic field needed to levitate the rod is 0.23 T.

What is the rising of rock layers called
Alex777 [14]

The answer of this question is called uplift i.e the rising of rock layers in geology is called uplift.

Uplift is the process in which there will be vertical elevation of earth surface due to various natural processes occurring inside the surface of earth like earth quakes. Sometimes uplift is also caused by the mountain building which hampers the balance of a particular region.

In the process of uplift,the rocks normally metamorphic rocks present underground will be brought up to the earth surface.The enhanced elevation will cause erosion of lot of materials on the surface of earth.
