1. What do you think are the advantages and disadvantages of using points near the corners of aphoto for scale computations?2. Would you consider the aerial photo as a map substitute than a topo map? Why?3. Aside from using the topographic map, suggest other means of determining the scale of an aerialphoto. Cite your references if there are any.

- 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_forwardUse the table to answer the question. Answer clearly, and label the answers so i know what answer goes to what part.arrow_forward
- Are the planets really lined up as we have them in this model? (Model is the image attatched). What is the minimum possible distance in AU between Mars and Earth? What is the maximum possible distance in AU between Mars and Eath? Show your work if possible. Thanks so much :)arrow_forwardPlease 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_forwardFiguring for Yourself. Always show your work.27. Calculate the wind speed at the edge of Neptune's Great Dark Spot, which was 10,000 kmin diameter and rotated in 17 days. (Hint: recall a circle circumference=2 x pie x radius).arrow_forward
