Answer:
a) 39.6 m/s b) 4123 N
Explanation:
a) At the top of the loop, all of the forces point downwards (force of gravity and normal force).
Fnet=ma
ma=m(v^2/R) (centripetal acceleration)
mg=m(v^2/R)
m cancels out (this is why pilot feels weightless) so,
g=(v^2/R)
9.8 m/s^2 = v^2/160 m
v^2=1568 m^2/s^2
v=39.6 m/s
b) At the bottom of the loop, the normal force and the force of gravity point in opposite directions. The normal force is the weight felt.
Convert 300 km/hr to m/s
300 km/hr=83.3 m/s
Convert pilot's weight into mass:
760 N = 77.55 kg
Fnet=ma
n-mg=m(v^2/R)
n=(77.55 kg)(((83.3 m/s)^2)/160 m)+(77.55 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)
n=3363.2 N+760 N=4123 N
Answer:
The dart with the small mass will travel the farthest distance.
Explanation:
Acceleration is proportional to force times mass, and inertia is proportional to mass. Inertia is the reluctance of a moving body to stop, and a stationary body to start moving (inertia increses with mass). Assuming they both have the same aerodynamic design, and that they are both launched with the same force applied for the same time duration, the dart with less small mass will accelerate faster than the big mass dart. From this we can see that the small dart will have covered a longer distance before the effect of the force stops, when compared to the more massive dart.
Answer:
The tiger would not be able to produce glucose causing it to stop running
Explanation:
Since the mitochondria is in charge of producing ATP the tiger would not be able to use any glucose causing it to not be able to run.
Answer:
(a) 1.16 s
(b)0.861 Hz
Explanation:
(a) Period : The period of a simple harmonic motion is the time in seconds, required for a object undergoing oscillation to complete one cycle.
From the question,
If 1550 cycles is completed in (30×60) seconds,
1 cycle is completed in x seconds
x = 30×60/1550
x = 1.16 s
Hence the period is 1.16 seconds.
(b) Frequency : This can be defined as the number of cycles that is completed in one seconds, by an oscillating body. The S.I unit of frequency is Hertz (Hz).
Mathematically, Frequency is given as
F = 1/T ........................... Equation 1
Where F = frequency, T = period.
Given: T = 1.16 s.
Substitute into equation 1
F = 1/1.16
F = 0.862 Hz
Hence thee frequency = 0.862 Hz
