Given:

The initial velocity of the object, v=30 m/s

a_t=0

a_c≠0

The time period is Δt.

To find:

The right conclusion among the given choices.

Explanation:

a_t represents the tangential accleration on the object and a_c represents the centripetal acceleration on the object.

The centripetal acceleration is the acceleration that keeps the object in its circular path. The centripetal force only changes the direction of the velocity and not the magnitude.

Thus the magnitude of the velocity of the object remains the same after a time interval of Δt. But the direction of the velocity of the object will be changed and will be unknown after Δt seconds.

Final answer:

Thus the object will be traveling at 30 m/s in some unknown direction.

Therefore, the correct answer is option a.

victus00 [196]

Answer:

The side the boy is sitting on will tilt downward.

Explanation:

According to the law of moments when the same force is applied at a greater distance from the pivot then the effect of moment is greater about that point.

<u>Mathematically momentum is given as:</u>

$M=F\times r$

where:

F is the applied force at a distance 'r' acting in a direction perpendicular to the line joining the point of application and the hinge.

Moment is the rotational effect of the applied force on the body.

<em>When the boy of a heavier mass than the girl was sitting on a balanced see-saw then it is certain that he was closer to the hinge than the girl to balance the turning effect (in case of an unbiased see-saw). When the body moves farther his weight is same but the radial distance from the hinge increases which increases his moment of weight.</em>

A pendulum clock gives correct time at 20°c how many sec/day will it gain or loose when the temperature fall to 5°c? cofficient

rewona [7]

Answer:

129.6 seconds

Explanation:

Given that :

α = 0.0002°c-1

θ1 = 20°C

θ2 = 5°C

Time t = one day ; Converting to seconds ; number of seconds in a day ; (24 * 60 * 60) = 86400 seconds

Let dT= change in time

Using the relation :

dT = 0.5* α * dθ * t

dθ = (20 - 5) = 15°C

dT = 0.5 * 0.0002 * 15 * 86400

dT = 129.6 seconds

Allushta [10]

Answer:

143

Explanation:

Using one of the 3 fundamental equations in physics, y=vo*t+1/2gt^2, we can use this equation to find the total distance that was traveled.

Acceleration due to gravity is always 9.8m/s^2 and time is 5.4s, we also have no initial velocity.

Given this, we can plug in the known variables.

y=0t+1/2*9.8*5^2

simplify,

y=4.9*5.4^2

y=4.9*29.16

y=142.884m which we can round up to 143 meters

Final Answer: 143 meters
