Answer:

The golf ball would be revolving around the baseball while the baseball would be revolving around the basketball.

Explanation:

The basketball would be represented as the Sun, the baseball would be represented as the Earth and the golf ball would be represented as the moon. Since the Moon revolves around the Earth and the Earth revolving around the Sun makes a perfect explaination for this question.

A sock stuck to the inside of the clothes dryer spins around the drum once every 2.0 s at a distance of 0.50 m from the center o

Rashid [163]

a) 1.57 m/s

The sock spins once every 2.0 seconds, so its period is

T = 2.0 s

Therefore, the angular velocity of the sock is

$\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}=\frac{2\pi}{2.0}=3.14 rad/s$

The linear speed of the sock is given by

$v=\omega r$

where

$\omega$ is the angular velocity

r = 0.50 m is the radius of the circular path of the sock

Substituting, we find:

$v=(3.14)(0.50)=1.57 m/s$

B) Faster

In this case, the drum is twice as wide, so the new radius of the circular path of the sock is twice the previous one:

$r' = 2r = 1.00 m$

At the same time, the drum spins at the same frequency as before, therefore the angular frequency as not changed:

$\omega' = \omega = 3.14 rad/s$

Therefore, the new linear speed would be:

$v'=\omega' r' = \omega (2r)$

And substituting,

$v'=(3.14)(1.00)=3.14 rad/s = 2v$

So, we see that the linear speed has doubled.

A thin double convex glass lens with an index of 1.56 while surrounded by air has a 10 cm focal length. If it is placed under wa

bearhunter [10]

Explanation:

Formula which holds true for a leans with radii $R_{1}$ and $R_{2}$ and index refraction n is given as follows.

$\frac{1}{f} = (n - 1) [\frac{1}{R_{1}} - \frac{1}{R_{2}}]$

Since, the lens is immersed in liquid with index of refraction $n_{1}$ . Therefore, focal length obeys the following.

$\frac{1}{f_{1}} = \frac{n - n_{1}}{n_{1}} [\frac{1}{R_{1}} - \frac{1}{R_{2}}]$

$\frac{1}{f(n - 1)} = [\frac{1}{R_{1}} - \frac{1}{R_{2}}]$

and, $\frac{n_{1}}{f(n - n_{1})} = \frac{1}{R_{1}} - \frac{1}{R_{2}}$

or, $f_{1} = \frac{fn_{1}(n - 1)}{(n - n_{1})}$

$f_{w} = \frac{10 \times 1.33 \times (1.56 - 1)}{(1.56 - 1.33)}$

= 32.4 cm

Using thin lens equation, we will find the focal length as follows.

$\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{s_{o}} + \frac{1}{s_{i}}$

Hence, image distance can be calculated as follows.

$\frac{1}{s_{i}} = \frac{1}{f} - \frac{1}{s_{o}} = \frac{s_{o} - f}{fs_{o}}$

$s_{i} = \frac{fs_{o}}{s_{o} - f}$

$s_{i} = \frac{32.4 \times 100}{100 - 32.4}$

= 47.9 cm

Therefore, we can conclude that the focal length of the lens in water is 47.9 cm.

Intense temperature and pressure of regional metamorphism

Explanation:

The process that cause the formation of the Vishnu Schist is the intense temperature and pressure as a result of regional metamorphism.

Regional metamorphism is an extensive metamorphism of an area as a result of temperature and pressure changes.
The schist is a foliated metamorphic rock usually found in areas of moderate to high grade temperature and pressure.
The Vishnu schist must have been metamorphosed before the new sediments were deposited on top.
