Explain a situation in which you can accelerate even though your speed doesn’t change.

Physics

Serga [27]3 years ago

"Acceleration" does NOT mean speeding up.  It also doesn't mean
slowing down.  Acceleration means ANY change in the speed
OR DIRECTION of motion.

The only kind of motion that's NOT accelerated is motion at a steady
speed AND in a straight line.

Even when your speed is steady, you're accelerating if your direction
is changing.

A few examples:
(no speeds are changing):

-- driving on a curved road, or turning a corner
-- going around a curve on a skateboard, a bike, or a Segway
-- running on a quarter-mile track
-- an Indy car cruising a practice lap around the track
-- water spinning, getting ready to go down the drain
-- any point on the blade of a fan
-- the little ball going around the inside of a Roulette wheel
-- the Moon in its orbit around the Earth
-- the Earth in its orbit around the sun

If the blood pressure of a person is more than 120/80 mm of Hg, then it is especially called as high blood pressure.

Explanation:

But regarding answer to this question, The blood pressure of a

person is 140/100 mm of Hg means that the systolic blood pressure of a person is 140 mm of Hg and diastolic blood pressure of a person is 100 mm of Hg.

The rotational inertia of a collapsing spinning star changes to 1/6 its initial value. What is the ratio of the new rotational k
storchak [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the initial rotational inertia be I and final rotational inertia be I / 6 .

Let the initial angular velocity be ω₁ and final angular velocity be ω₂.

Applying conservation of angular momentum law

I x ω₁ = I / 6 x ω₂

6 ω₁  = ω₂

initial rotational kinetic energy = 1/2 I x ω₁ ²

Final  rotational kinetic energy = 1/2 ( I / 6 ) x ω₂ ²

Final  rotational kinetic energy / initial rotational kinetic energy

= ( 1 / 6 ) x ω₂ ² / ω₁ ²

=  ω₂ ² / 6ω₁ ²

= 36 ω₁ ² / 6ω₁ ²

= 6 .
