Concept explainers
Explain all answers clearly, with complete sentences and proper essay structure if needed. An asterisk (*) designates a quantitative problem, for which you should show all your work.
The turning point the end of section 15.2 presented the idea that humanity is now at turning point, and that current generations have a greater responsibility for the future than it any previous generation do you agree with this assessment? If so how can we ensure that we deal with this responsibility wisely in a way that build a better future for the entire human race? if not ,why not?

- PLEASE be clear in your answer since the last time I posted was incorrect, and only answer part b, thanks.arrow_forwardPlease answer the question and its subquestions entirely! This is one question with two subquestions. According to the official Bartleby guidelines, I am alowed to have up to two subquestion! 1) When an ice-skater spins and increases her rotation rate by pulling her arms and leg in, what happens to her kinetic energy? It stays the same. It increases. It decreases. a) A 0.400 kg mass, sitting on a horizontal frictionless surface, is attached to the end of a 0.750 m string. It is whirled around in a circular horizontal path. If the maximum tension that the string can withstand is 450 N, then what maximum velocity can the mass have if the string is not to break? 375 m/s 22.4 m/s 19.4 m/s 29.0 m/s b) A grinding wheel with a moment of inertia of 2 kg-m 2 has a 2.50 N-m torque applied to it. What is its final kinetic energy 10 seconds after starting from rest? 312 J 237 J 156 J 106 Jarrow_forwardIdentify which of the cyclists ended their trip closest to home. Which cyclists did not end their trip closest to home? Be sure to use evidence from the images to support your claim and explain your reasoning. Answer in complete sentences, about 5.arrow_forward
- Hello, part D was incorrect, and where does the six come from?? I confused on reading the grapharrow_forwardSee the screenshot uploaded. Answer in a step-by-step format, add diagrams, and detailed side notes for a better understanding Ps. Please answer on paper Thank you!arrow_forward1.) Is liquid volume directly proportional to temperature? Explain briefly 2.) Is Charles Law applicable to liquids?arrow_forward
- I need urgent answers on the photo provided here pls. Thank you so much.arrow_forwardPlease show your complete solution and write your answer clearly and readable. Thank you.arrow_forwardPlease I prefer typing instead of writing on paper and if written, write it well so that I can see, read and understand. Thank Youarrow_forward
- Please explain in full detail as I am trying to understand this concept! thank you! a. Sketch a diagram including Earth, Sun, and Mars, with attention to scale of distance (Mars is about 1.5 AU from the Sun) showing a faster trajectory from Earth to Mars than the minimal energy trajectory discussed in the lecture. b. Without doing a calculation, how would the arrival velocity of the spacecraft at Mars for the case in (a) compare to the spacecraft arrival in the class example? The lecture example had the spacecraft arriving at Mars with a velocity of 22.49 km/sec. c. The average velocity of Mars in orbit around the Sun is 24.08 km/sec. Comment on the trade-offs between trajectories, arrival velocities and velocity changes (delta V) required to enter an orbit around Mars.arrow_forwardGive typed full explanation When mixing oil and red wine vinegar to make a salad dressing, the vinegar forms a red layer below the oil. What does this tell us about the relative densities of oil and vinegar? Which has a higher density? Which has a lower density? How do you know?? Explain!!arrow_forwardThink of our Milky Way Galaxy as a flat circular disk of diameter 100,000 light-years. Suppose we are one of 1000 civilizations, randomly distributed through the disk, interested in communicating via radio waves. How far away in light years would the nearest such civilization be from us on average? Show your working. (Hint: Begin by calculating the area of the disk. Find the area of one of a 1,000 squares. Consider the separation of the centres of two adjacent squares.)arrow_forward
