Periodic time is the time taken for one complete oscillation by a body in circular motion. In this case the merry-go round takes 2 minutes to cover 15 complete oscillations. 2 Minutes = 120 seconds
Hence, 15 oscillations takes 120 secs
         thus 1 oscillation takes 120/15 = 8 seconds
therefore the period of the merry-go-round = 8 seconds

Recent findings in astrophysics suggest that the observable universe can be modeled as a sphere of radius R = 13.7 × 109 light-y
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

3.7\times 10^{51}) kg

Explanation:

R = radius of the sphere modeled as universe = 13\times 10^{25} m

Volume of sphere is given as

V = \frac{4\pi R^{3}}{3}

V = \frac{4(3.14) (13\times 10^{25})^{3}}{3}

V = 9.2\times 10^{78} m³

\rho = average total mass density of universe = 1\times 10^{-26} kg/m³

m = Total mass of the universe = ?

We know that mass is the product of volume and density, hence

m = \rho V

m = (1\times 10^{-26}) (9.2\times 10^{78})

m = 9.2\times 10^{52} kg

M = mass of "ordinary" matter  = ?

mass of "ordinary" matter is only about 4% of total mass, hence

M = (0.04) m

M = (0.04)(9.2\times 10^{52})

M = 3.7\times 10^{51} kg

While playing basketball in PE class, Logan lost his balance after making a lay-up and colliding with the padded wall behind the
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

a.) F = 3515 N

b.) F = 140600 N

Explanation: given that the

Mass M = 74kg

Initial velocity U = 7.6 m/s

Time t = 0.16 s

Force F = change in momentum ÷ time

F = (74×7.6)/0.16

F = 3515 N

b.) If Logan had hit the concrete wall moving at the same speed, his momentum would have been reduced to zero in 0.0080 seconds

Change in momentum = 74×7.6 + 74×7.6

Change in momentum = 562.4 + 562.4 = 1124.8 kgm/s

F = 1124.8/0.0080 = 140600 N

An object undergoing simple harmonic motion has a maximum displacement of 6.2 m at t=0.0 s. if the angular frequency of oscillat
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

From above question we know that

A = 6.2 m

f = 1.6 rad/s

t = 3.5 s

x =?

We know that,

x = Acos(2pie ft)

Putting all values in above eq.

x = 6.2 x cos(2x3.142x1.6x3.5)

x = - 4.8

Displacement can never be negative so ignore - sign.

The air in tires can support a car because gases __________.
____ [38]
Because the air inside the tires is kept at high pressure.

In fact, the force applied by the tires upwards to counter-balance the weight of the car (pushing downwards) is 
F=pA
where p is the pressure of the air inside the tires and A is the area of contact between the tire and the car. Therefore, a higher pressure means a larger force F, and eventually if the pressure p is higher enough the force F will be large enough to counterbalance the weight of the car.
