Acceleration involves a change in __________.

Physics
2 answers:
uysha [10]3 years ago

"Acceleration" is any change in speed or direction of motion ...
slowing down, speeding up, or curving away from a straight line.

You and I, and all other students of Physics, must re-educate
people.  We have to tell everyone that 'acceleration' does NOT
mean 'speeding up'.  AND, it doesn't even necessarily mean
any change in speed.

We have that F=ma from the 2nd Newton law where F is the force, m is the mass and a is the acceleration. Suppose we have that F' is the new force and m' is the new mass. Then, we have that a'=F'/m' still, by rearranging Newton's law. We are given that F'=2F and m'=m/2. Hence,
a'= \frac{2F}{ \frac{m}{2} } = \frac{4F}{m} = 4\frac{F}{m}
But now, we have from F=ma, that a=F/m and we are given that a=1m/s^2.
We can substitute thus, a'=4a=4*1m/s^2=4m/s^2.

QveST [7]

Answer:

270 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

α = 150 rad/s²

ω = 12.0 rad/s

r = 1.30 m

Find:

a

The acceleration will have two components: a radial component and a tangential component.

The tangential component is:

at = αr

at = (150 rad/s²)(1.30 m)

at = 195 m/s²

The radial component is:

ar = v² / r

ar = ω² r

ar = (12.0 rad/s)² (1.30 m)

ar = 187.2 m/s²

So the magnitude of the total acceleration is:

a² = at² + ar²

a² = (195 m/s²)² + (187.2 m/s²)²

a = 270 m/s²

When the spacecraft is at the halfway point, how does the strength of the gravitional force on the spaceprobe by Earth compre wi
mixer [17]

Solution :

When the spacecraft is at halfway point, the distance from the Earth as well as Mars are same. We have to account the masses of the planets. The gravitational force that is exerted by the Earth is greater because of its combined mass with the space probe.

The mass of Earth is greater than the mass of Mars. Therefore, the force of Earth is more than Mars.

Which of the following is not affect by muscles a blood temperature b digestion c hair growth d speech
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

c

Explanation:

i would think c would be correct because

blood temperature IS affected by muscles

digestion IS affected by muscles

speech IS affected by muscles

so therefore <em>hair growth</em> IS NOT affected by muscles
