A coin is placed on a vinyl stereo record that is making 33 1/3 revolutions per minute on a turntable. (a) In what direction is
mamaluj [8]

Answer: a) The acceletarion is directed to the center on the turntable. b) 5 cm; ac= 0.59 m/s^2; 10 cm, ac=1.20 m/s^2; 14 cm, ac=1.66 m/s^2

Explanation: In order to explain this problem we have to consider teh expression of the centripetal accelartion for a circular movement, which is given by:

ac=ω^2*r where ω and r are the angular speed and teh radios of the circular movement.

w=2*π*f

We know that the turntable is set to 33  1/3 rev/m so

the frequency 33.33/60=0.55 Hz

then w=2*π*0.55=3.45 rad/s

Finally the centripetal acceleration at differents radii results equal:

r= 0.05 m  ac=3.45^2*0.05=0.50 m/s^2

r=0.1  ac=3.45^2*0.1=1.20 m/s^2

r=0.14 ac=3.45^2*0.14=1.66 m/s^2

A high-temperature gas is compared to the same gas at lower temperature. Which of the following statements is true?
ycow [4]

Answer:

I think it is C

Explanation:

If the temperature of a gas increases, the gas particles have a higher average speed as they gain kinetic energy. They collide more frequently with the walls of the container, which produces a bigger pressure.
