Recall that work is the amount of energy transferred to an object when it experiences a displacement and is acted upon by an external force. It is given a symbol of W and is measured in joules (J).
W=\vec{F}\cdot \Delta \vec{d}
We can use this formula to determine the work done by very specific forces, generating specific types of energy. We will examine three types of energy in this activity: gravitational potential, kinetic, and thermal. Before we start deriving equations for gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy, we should note that since work is the transfer and/or transformation of energy, we can also write its symbol as \Delta E.
No thats false. If your trying to say is true that people BELIEVED that then yes its true people believed it but if your talking about that question then its false
Answer:
110.9 m/s²
Explanation:
Given:
Distance of the tack from the rotational axis (r) = 37.7 cm
Constant rate of rotation (N) = 2.73 revolutions per second
Now, we know that,
1 revolution = 
radians
So, 2.73 revolutions = 
Therefore, the angular velocity of the tack is, 
Now, radial acceleration of the tack is given as:
Plug in the given values and solve for 
. This gives,
![a_r=(17.153\ rad/s)^2\times 37.7\ cm\\a_r=294.225\times 37.7\ cm/s^2\\a_r=11092.28\ cm/s^2\\a_r=110.9\ m/s^2\ \ \ \ \ \ \ [1\ cm = 0.01\ m]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=a_r%3D%2817.153%5C%20rad%2Fs%29%5E2%5Ctimes%2037.7%5C%20cm%5C%5Ca_r%3D294.225%5Ctimes%2037.7%5C%20cm%2Fs%5E2%5C%5Ca_r%3D11092.28%5C%20cm%2Fs%5E2%5C%5Ca_r%3D110.9%5C%20m%2Fs%5E2%5C%20%5C%20%5C%20%5C%20%5C%20%5C%20%5C%20%5B1%5C%20cm%20%3D%200.01%5C%20m%5D)
Therefore, the radial acceleration of the tack is 110.9 m/s².
Scientists think the solar system formed around 4.6 billion years ago from a cloud of dust and gas known as a solar nebula. Gravity collapsed the material on itself as it began to spin. This formed the sun in the middle. The planets formed when rock joined together in clumps and became bigger and bigger. And thus, our solar system was formed. Hope this helped
