<span>7.21 ft/s^2
       
Since you're looking for average acceleration, you can simply divide the change in velocity by the time. To make the calculation more reasonable, first convert the speed of 173 mi/h into ft/sec by multiplying by 5280 to convert from mi/h to ft/h and then dividing by 3600 to convert from ft/h to ft/s. 173 * 5280 / 3600 = 253.7333 ft/s Now divide the change in velocity by the time in seconds. 253.7333 ft/s / 35.2 s = 7.208333 ft/s^2 Rounding result to 3 significant figures gives 7.21 ft/s^2</span>

2. A ball tied to a pole by a rope swings in a circular path with a centripetal acceleration of 2.7 m/s. If the ball has a
Helga [31]

Answer: The diameter of the circular path is 2.96m

Explanation: centripetal acceleration = tangential speed^2 / radius of the circular path.

Centripetal acceleration = 2.7m/s^2

Tangential speed = 2.0m/s

Radius = 2.0^2 / 2.7 = 4/2.7

= 1.48m

Diameter = radius*2

= 1.48*2 = 2.96m.

How do human population growth trends differ between developed nations and developing nations?
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

Replacement-Level Fertility

Another important population characteristic that differ btw develop nation and developing nations is relates to births is replacement-level fertility. Replacement-level fertility is the fertility rate that will result in the replacement of the parents in the population. Again, in an ideal world, the human replacement-level fertility rate would be exactly two. This would mean that each couple would produce two offspring that would replace them in the population. If this occurred, then the human population would stay at a stable rate

Savion listed the steps involved when nuclear power plants generate electricity.
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Reorder the steps so that step 4 appears before step 3

Explanation:

In a nuclear power plant, we have;

1) Nuclear reaction between the radio active species and the particles takes place to generate energy in the nucleus of atoms

2) The nuclear energy in the atom is converted into radiant energy, which is the energy found in light, and thermal (heat) energy

3) The produced radiant and thermal energy is released as heat and light

4) With the produced heat, steam is generated

5) The generated steam turns the steam turbines and produced mechanical energy

6) The produced mechanical energy is then converted into electrical energy in the electrical generator of the power plant

To correct Savion's error, Step 4) the light and heat should be released before step 3) the released heat can be used to generate steam, we therefore reorder the steps so that step 4 appears before step 3.

If a receiver is overly selective:
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

C) only part of the bandwidth of the AM signal is amplified, causing some of the sideband information to be lost and distortion results.

Explanation:

Selectivity is the ability of a receiver to respond only to a specific signal on a wanted frequency and reject other signals nearby in frequency.

If a receiver is overly selective, only part of the bandwidth of the AM signal is amplified, causing some of the sideband information to be lost and distortion results. Whereas, if a receiver is underselective, the receiver can pick different signals on different frequencies at the same time.
