A typical running track is an oval with 74-mm-diameter half circles at each end. A runner going once around the track covers a d

istance of 400 mm . Suppose a runner, moving at a constant speed, goes once around the track in 1 minmin 40 s.What is her centripetal acceleration during the turn at each end of the track?

The centripetal acceleration a is 4.32 \times 10^-4 m/s^2.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The speed is constant and computing the speed from the distance and time for one full lap.

Given, distance = 400 mm = 0.4 m,       Time = 100 s.

Computing the v = 0.4 m / 100 s

                         v = 4 \times 10^-3 m/s.

radius of the circular end r = 37 mm = 0.037 m.

            centripetal acceleration a = v^2 / r

                                                        = (4 \times 10^-3)^2 / 0.037

                                                    a = 4.32 \times 10^-4 m/s^2.

Find the pressure if a force of 2N is applied to an area of 0.00004m^2
BigorU [14]

Answer:

5 x 10^4 N/m^2

Explanation:

Pressure, force and area are related witg the following equation;

Pressure = Force /Area

From the question, we obtained the following information;

Force = 2N

Area = 0.00004m^2

Pressure =?

Pressure = Force /Area

Pressure = 2/0.00004

Pressure = 5 x 10^4N/m^2

There is an electric field in the region between the two plates. The magnitude of this electric field is ed. This imposes anothe
krok68 [10]

Answer:

it is essential that the charge on the plates are of the same magnitude, but in the opposite direction

Explanation:

The configuration of parallel plates is called a capacitor and is widely used to create constant electric fields inside.

 To obtain this field it is essential that the charge on the plates are of the same magnitude, but in the opposite direction

This is so that the fields created by each plate can be added inside and subtracted from the outside of the plates

I need help with this problem :(​
Reil [10]

Answer:

it tells you that the speed increases until about 20 seconds then keeps a steady pace for 20 seconds then the speed drops and stops at 55 seconds in the process.

FIND THE WEIGHT OF A 80 KG MAN ON THE SURFACE OF MOON? WHAT SHOULD BE HISS MASS ON THE EARTH AND ON THE MOON? (ge = 9.8 m/s2 ; g
elena55 [62]

Weight = (mass) x (acceleration of gravity at the place where the mass is) .

Man's mass = 80 kg

His weight on Earth = (80 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = 784 newtons (about 176 pounds)

His weight on the Moon = (80 kg) x (1.63 m/s²) = <em>130.4 newtons</em> (about  29.2 pounds)

His mass is <em>80 kg</em>.  Mass is the thing about him that doesn't change. 
He has the same mass on the Earth, on the Moon, or anywhere.
