The Earth gets hotter as one travels towards the core, known as the geothermal gradient. The geothermal gradient is the amount that the Earth's temperature increases with depth. ... On average, the temperature increases by about 25°C for every kilometer of depth.

Find the object's speeds v1, v2, and v3 at times t1=2.0s, t2=4.0s, and t3=13s.

Burka [1]

Since this is a distance/time graph, the speed at any time is the slope
of the part of the graph that's directly over that time on the x-axis.

At time t1 = 2.0 s
That's in the middle of the first segment of the graph,
that extends from zero to 3 seconds.
Its slope is 7/3 . v1 = 7/3 m/s .

At time t2 = 4.0 s
That's in the middle of the horizontal part of the graph
that runs from 3 to 6 seconds.
Its slope is zero.
v2 = zero .

At time t3 = 13 s.
That's in the middle of the part of the graph that's sloping down,
between 11 and 16 seconds.
Its slope is -3/5 . v3 = -0.6 m/s .

The propeller of a World War II fighter plane is 2.30 m in diameter. (a) What is its angular velocity in radians per second if i

Sergio [31]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Diameter of fighter plane=2.3 m

Radius= $r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{2.3}{2}=1.15 m$

a.We have to find the angular velocity in radians per second if it spins=1200 rev/min

Frequency= $\frac{1200}{60}=20 Hz$

1 minute=60 seconds

Angular velocity= $\omega=2\pi f$

Angular velocity= $2\times \frac{22}{7}\times 20=125.7 rad/s$

b.We have to find the linear speed of its tip at this angular velocity if the plane is stationary on the tarmac.

$v=r\omega=1.15\times 125.7=144.56 m/s$

c.Centripetal acceleration= $\omega^2 r=(125.7)^2(1.15)=18170.56 m/s^2$

Centripetal acceleration== $\frac{18170.56\times g}{9.81}=1852.25 g m/s^2$

Should nuclear energy be part of sustainable energy future? explain your answer

liraira [26]

Answer:

Nuclear power is presently a sustainable energy source, but could become completely renewable if the source of uranium changed from mined ore to seawater. Since U extracted is continuously replenished through geologic processes, nuclear would become as endless as solar.
