Answer:
Earth would continue moving by uniform motion, with constant velocity, in a straight line
Explanation:
The question can be answered by using Newton's first law of motion, also known as law of inertia, which states that:
"an object keeps its state of rest or of uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an external net force different from zero"
This means that if there are no forces acting on an object, the object stays at rest (if it was not moving previously) or it continues moving with same velocity (if it was already moving) in a straight line.
In this problem, the Earth is initially moving around the Sun, with a certain tangential velocity v. When the Sun disappears, the force of gravity that was keeping the Earth in circular motion disappears too: therefore, there are no more forces acting on the Earth, and so by the 1st law of Newton, the Earth will continue moving with same velocity v in a straight line.
I think that the girl has greater tangential acceleration because she is closer to the center and the acceleration is greater there.
Answer:
a = 0.5 m/s²
Explanation:
Applying the definition of angular acceleration, as the rate of change of the angular acceleration, and as the seats begin from rest, we can get the value of the angular acceleration, as follows:
ωf = ω₀ + α*t
⇒ ωf = α*t ⇒ α = 
= 
The angular velocity, and the linear speed, are related by the following expression:
v = ω*r
Applying the definition of linear acceleration (tangential acceleration in this case) and angular acceleration, we can find a similar relationship between the tangential and angular acceleration, as follows:
a = α*r⇒ a = 0.067 rad/sec²*7.5 m = 0.5 m/s²
Answer: It will be take 2.6 hours
Explanation: Please see the attachments below
Anything that's not supported and doesn't hit anything, and
doesn't have any air resistance, gains 9.8 m/s of downward
speed every second, on account of gravity. If it happens to
be moving up, then it loses 9.8 m/s of its upward speed every
second, on account of gravity.
(64.2 m/s) - [ (9.8 m/s² ) x (1.5 sec) ]
= (64.2 m/s) - [ 14.7 m/s ]
= 49.5 m/s . (upward)
