Explain the interaction between centripetal force and inertia and what kind of motion this interaction causes.

1 answer:

5 0

Centripital force is a force that draws an object toward a center point. Think of gravity acting on a celestial object as it revolves around the sun, or the force that a string exerts on a ball tied at the end of it to keep it from flying away.
Inertia is the forward momentum of an object, the tendency of an object to continue moving in the direction it is already moving in.
Intertia and centripital motion combine to create circular motion, as an object that is moving in some direction away from a center object, but still drawn to that object by a centripital force, will continue to move, at the same distance away from the object, in a circle around it.

A footballer kicks a ball at angle teta to horizontal with some initial velocity a) what are the two types of independent motion

Nezavi [6.7K]

a) The motion along the vertical direction and the motion along the horizontal direction.

b) The object remains in the air for a time period of 2usin(θ)/g.

Any object that is thrown in the air when gravity is acting on it is called a projectile. The motion of this projectile is called projectile motion.

When the projectile is thrown in the air at some angle θ, then there are two independent motions taking place at the same time. First is the component of motion along the vertical direction along which gravity acts. Second is the component of motion along the horizontal direction along which the object moves with a constant velocity. No force acts along the horizontal direction. The horizontal motion does not affect the vertical motion and the converse is also true. So these are independent of each other.

The time of flight is the time during which a projectile remains in the air. This time of flight is calculated using the formula,

T=2usin(θ)/g

where T is the time of flight, u is the initial velocity and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

Hence, the object remains in the air for a time period of 2usin(θ)/g.

What is the difference between the parts of the plot with positive slope and the parts with negative slope?

zalisa [80]

The difference between the parts of the plot with positive slope and the parts with negative slope can be found below.

<h3>What is a slope?</h3>

A slope in a graph is the ratio of the vertical and horizontal distances between two points on a line. Slope shows both steepness and direction of values.

A slope can either be positive or negative depending on the relationship between the variables being plotted.

A positive slope means that the variable are directly related while the negative slope means that two variables are negatively related.

A positive slope further means that the line moves upward when going from left to right on the graph while with the negative slope, the line moves down when going from left to right.
