Acceleration is how much the velocity changes within a period of time so,
Acceleration= is the change in velocity divided by change in time
your units will be m/s squared
Using
F= mv²/r
4 = 0.5×v² / 2
8 /0.5 = v²
v²=16
v= √16
v= 4 ms-¹
The speed of light to be slightly less in atmosphere then in vacuum because of absorption and re-emission of light by the atmospheric molecules occurred when light travels through a material
<u>Explanation:</u>
When light passes through atmosphere, it interacts or transmits through the transparent molecules in atmosphere. In this process of transmission through atmosphere, the light will be getting absorbed by them and some will get re-emitted or refracted depending upon wavelength.
But in vacuum the absence of any kind of particles will lead to no interaction and no energy loss, thus the speed of the light will be same in vacuum while due to interactions with molecules of atmosphere, there speed will be slightly less compared to in vacuum.
R1 + R4 = 1430 + 1350 = 2780 = R14 series combination of R1 & R4
R2 + R5 = 1350 + 1150 = 2500 = R25
The circuit has been reduced to 3 resistors in parallel
R314 = 2780 * 1100 / (2780 + 1100) = 788 this is the resistance of the parallel combination of R14 and R3
R31425 = 2500 * 788 / (2500 + 788) = 599 which is the equivalent of the circuit - you can also use the formula for 3 resistors in parallel but this seems simpler
