Rotation refers to an object's spinning motion about its own axis. Revolution refers the object's orbital motion around another object.

Answer:

Explanation:

"Rotation" refers to an object's spinning motion about its own axis. "Revolution" refers the object's orbital motion around another object. For example, Earth rotates on its own axis, producing the 24-hour day. Earth revolves about the Sun, producing the 365-day year.

IrinaK [193]

The frog's launch speed and the time spends in the air are 22.5m/s and 2.73s respectively.

To find the answer, we need to know about the time of flight and range of projectile motion.

<h3>What's the expression of range of a projectile motion?</h3>
  • Range = U²× sin(2θ)/g
  • U= initial velocity, θ= angle of projectile and g= acceleration due to gravity
  • U=√{Range×g/sin(2θ)}
  • Here, range= 2.20m, = 36.5°
  • U= √{2.20×9.8/sin(73)}

U= √{2.20×9.8/sin(73)} = 22.5m/s

<h3>What's the expression of time of flight in projectile motion?</h3>
  • Time of flight= (2×U×sinθ)/g
  • So, T= (2×22.5×sin36.5°)/9.8

= 2.73 s

Thus, we can conclude that the frog's launch speed and the time spends in the air are 22.5m/s and 2.73s respectively.

Imagine a small child whose legs are half as long as her parent’s legs. If her parent can walk at maximum speed V, at what maxim
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

\boxed{v=\frac {V}{\sqrt {2}}}

Explanation:

We know that speed is given by dividing distance by time or multiplying length and frequency. The speed of the father will be given by Lf where L is the length of the father’s leg ad f is the frequency.

We know that frequency of simple pendulum follows that f=\frac {1}{2\pi} \sqrt {\frac {g}{l}}

Now, the speed of the father will be V=Lf= L\times (\frac {1}{2\pi} \sqrt {\frac {g}{l}}) while for the child the speed will be v=\frac {L}{2}\times (\frac {1}{2\pi} \sqrt {\frac {g}{0.5l}})

The ratio of the father’s speed to the child’s speed will be

\frac {V}{v}=\frac {\frac {L}{2}\times (\frac {1}{2\pi} \sqrt {\frac {g}{0.5l}})}{ L\times (\frac {1}{2\pi} \sqrt {\frac {g}{l}})}\\\frac {V}{v}=\frac {\sqrt {2}}{2}\\\boxed{v=\frac {V}{\sqrt {2}}}

Short-wavelength radiation from the Sun passes through a planet's atmosphere but some of the outgoing long-wavelength energy is
serious [3.7K]

Answer:Greenhouse effect

Explanation:

Short wavelength radiation from the sun passes through a  planet's atmosphere but some of the outgoing long-wavelength energy is absorbed and radiated again this process is known as Green house effect which increases the temperature of earth and as a result causes more to be trapped inside earth atmosphere.

If the wavelength of a sound wave increases and the frequency of the sound wave does not change what happens to the speed of the
salantis [7]

If the wavelength of a sound wave increases and the frequency of the sound wave does not change, the speed of the wave will increase.

Ans: D

Explanation

The sound wave speed is given by E=fλ, where f indicates its frequency and λ indicates its wavelength.

From the equation, it is evident that the sound speed is proportional to both frequency and wavelength.

Here, as wavelength increases, wave speed increases provided there is no change in frequency.
