Answer:

When a an object is been rotated its resistance capacity to that rotational force is know as rotational inertia  and this mathematically given as

          I = mr^2

   Where m is the mass

                r is the rotation radius

For the spinning of the lamp as a baton to work the location of the center of mass of the floor lamp needs to be located

This is more likely to be located closer to base of the lamp as compared to the top, so success of spinning a floor lamp like a baton is highly likely if the lamp is grabbed closer to the base because that is where the position of its center of mass is likely to be.

When a car is 100 meters from its starting position traveling at 60.0 m/s., it starts braking and comes to a stop 350 meters fro
NISA [10]
Remember your kinematic equations for constant acceleration. One of the equations is x_{f} =  x_{i} +  v_{i}(t) + \frac{1}{2} at^{2}, where x_{f} = final position, x_{i} = initial position, v_{i} = initial velocity, t = time, and a = acceleration. 

Your initial position is where you initially were before you braked. That means x_{i} = 100m. You final position is where you ended up after t seconds passed, so x_{f} = 350m. The time it took you to go from 100m to 350m was t = 8.3s. You initial velocity at the initial position before you braked was v_{i} = 60.0 m/s. Knowing these values, plug them into the equation and solve for a, your acceleration:
350\:m = 100\:m + (60.0\:m/s)(8.3\:s) + \frac{1}{2} a(8.3\:s)^{2}\\
250\:m = (60.0\:m/s)(8.3\:s) + \frac{1}{2} a(8.3\:s)^{2}\\
250\:m = 498\:m +34.445\:s^{2}(a)\\
-248\:m = 34.445\:s^{2}(a)\\
a \approx -7.2 \: m/s^{2}

Your acceleration is approximately -7.2 \: m/s^{2}.

Onur drops a basketball from a height of 10\,\text{m}10m10, start text, m, end text on Mars, where the acceleration due to gravi
Doss [256]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Basket ball is drop from height

H=10m

It is dropped on planet mass

And the acceleration due to gravity on Mars is given as

g= 3.7m/s²

Time taken for the ball to reach the ground

Initial velocity of the body is zero

u=0m/s

Using equation of motion: free fall

H = ut + ½gt²

10 = 0•t + ½ × 3.7 ×t²

10 = 0 + 1.85t²

10 = 1.85t²

Then, t² =10/1.85

t² = 5.405

t = √ 5.405

t = 2.325seconds

So the time the ball spend on the air before reaching the ground is 2.325 seconds

John runs 1.0 m/s at first, and then accelerates to 1.6 m/s during
erastova [34]

Answer: 0.13m/s^2

Explanation:

Formula: a=\frac{V_2-V_1}{t}

Where;

a = acceleration

V2 = final velocity

V1 = initial velocity

t = time

If John runs 1.0 m/s first, we assume this is V1. He accelerates to 1.6 m/s; this is V2.

a=\frac{1.6m/s-1.0m/s}{4.5s}

a=\frac{0.6m/s}{4.5s}

a=0.13m/s^2

List some reasons why growth characteristics are more useful on agar plates than on agar slants
SpyIntel [72]
Usually, in culturing of the bacteria we have a slant and then portion f it is transferred to the agar plate. The growth characteristics are more useful in the agar plates because it is where we really do the observation because bacteria in slants are still to be transferred in the agar plates.

The study of alternating electric current requires the solutions of equations of the form i equals Upper I Subscript max Baselin
KiRa [710]

Answer:

Explanation:

i = Imax sin2πft

given i = 180 , Imax = 200 , f = 50  , t = ?

Put the give values in the equation above

180 = 200 sin 2πft

sin 2πft = .9

sin2π x 50t = .9

sin 360 x 50 t = sin ( 360n + 64 )

360 x 50 t = 360n + 64

360 x 50 t =  64 ,  ( putting n = 0 for least value of t )

18000 t = 64

t = 3.55 ms  .
