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.

2. A 1.54 kΩ resistor is connected to an AC voltage source with an rms voltage of 240 V.
svp [43]

(a) The maximum potential difference across the resistor is 339.41 V.

(b) The maximum current through the resistor is 0.23 A.

(c) The rms current through the resistor is 0.16 A.

(d)  The average power dissipated by the resistor is 38.4 W.

<h3>Maximum potential difference</h3>

Vrms = 0.7071V₀

where;

  • V₀ is peak voltage

V₀ = Vrms/0.7071

V₀ = 240/0.7071

V₀ = 339.41 V

<h3> rms current through the resistor </h3>

I(rms) = V(rms)/R

I(rms) = (240)/(1,540)

I(rms) = 0.16 A

<h3>maximum current through the resistor </h3>

I₀ = I(rms)/0.7071

I₀ = (0.16)/0.7071

I₀ = 0.23 A

<h3> Average power dissipated by the resistor</h3>

P = I(rms) x V(rms)

P = 0.16 x 240

P = 38.4 W

A boy on the beach holds a spherical balloon filled with air. at 10:00am, the temperature on the beach is 20°c and the balloon h
Anon25 [30]
For idea gases, volume is directly proportional to temperature. That is, an increase in temperature leads to increase in volume and vice versa.

Therefore,
V1/T1 = V2/T2 => T2 = (V2*T1)/V1

Assuming that the balloon is spherical in shape,

V= 4/3*pi*R^3.... In the formula for calculating T2, 4/3*pi cancels out.

R1 = 30/2 15 cm; R2 = 30.5/2 = 15.25 cm; T1 = 20+273.15 =293.15 K

Therefore,

T2 = (R2^3*T1)/R1^3 = (15.25^3*293.15)/15^3 = 308.05 K = 34.9 °C

What type of reaction is shown below? Ba(OH)2 + 8H20 + 2NH4NO3 + heat ?10H2O + 2NH3 + Ba(NO3)2
Reptile [31]
Double Displacement Reaction

An element from each of two compounds switch places.
Example: compound + compound ⇒ compound + compound

Chemical reactions are processes in which substances change into other substances. A chemical reaction takes place if one or more of these occur:
Color changes - Different combinations of molecules reflect light differently. A color change indicates a change in molecules.
Heat content changes- In all chemical reactions, the heat content of the reactants and the heat content of the products is never the same. Sometimes the difference is great and can be easily detected. At other times, the difference is slight and more difficult to detect.
Gas produced - Whenever a gaseous product forms in a liquid solution, bubbles can be seen. A colorless gas produced in a reaction of solids is much harder to detect.
Precipitate forms- Precipitates are insoluble products formed by a reaction taking place in a liquid solution. This insoluble product will eventually settle to the bottom, but might immediately appear by turning the clear solution cloudy.

ECONOMICS GRADE 10 CASE STUDY TOPIC: South African growth and development: Mining and industry Manufacturing and services.​
bearhunter [10]

The correct answe is South Africa - Economic Growth and Development:

After the formal end of the previous apartheid system two decades ago, South Africa can now boast having one of the richest economies in Africa and a well-functioning democracy. It is the largest economy in Africa, but it also has deeply ingrained structural issues that limit its ability to expand and flourish.

One of the largest economies on the African continent is that of South Africa. However, despite a period of rapid development from 2003 to 2007, its real GDP average yearly growth rate between 2001 and 2010 has been very weak and unquestionably significantly below the African average. A number of African nations have had substantially faster growth rates, which has improved a number of development-related indices.

By the standards of the recent growth records of several Euro Zone nations, South Africa's development is hardly sluggish! One crucial aspect of the economy is that South Africa has achieved relatively modest progress in meeting a number of important development targets and some of the Millennium Development Goals, but her economy does not appear to have achieved the "take-off" required to kick start significant development progress, especially against the backdrop of her deep social problems.

As you tune your radio to a higher frequency, from 88.5 FM to 103.3 FM, the wavelength of the wave that you are tuning in
olga_2 [115]

the relation that relates the speed of wave, frequency of wave and wavelength is given as

wavelength = \frac{speed}{frequency}

the speed of wave in a medium remains constant. hence the wavelength is inversely related to the frequency of wave.

that means, as the frequency is increased, the wavelength decreases and vice versa.

hence the correct choice is

B decreases
