You are standing a distance of 17.0 meters from the center of a merry-go-round. The merry-go-round takes 9.50 seconds to go comp

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

(a)11.24 m/s

(b)7.44 m/s

(d) $539.55\mu$

(e) 0

Explanation:

The period for 1 circle $2\pi$ of the merry go around is 9.5s. It means the angular speed is:

$\omega = \theta / t = 2\pi / 9.5 \approx 0.661 rad/s$

(a)The speed is

$v = \omega * R = 0.661 * 17 = 11.24 m/s$

(b) Centripetal acceleration:

$a = \frac{v^2}{R} = \frac{11.24^2}{17} = 7.44 m/s^2$

$F = ma = 55 * 7.44 = 409 N$

(d) let the coefficient of friction by $\mu$ . The frictional force shall be this coefficient multiplied by normal force reverting gravity of the man

$F_f = mg\mu = 55*9.81\mu = 539.55\mu$

If f(x) = x2 - 3x + 1 and f(2 a) = 2f(a) then a is equal to

loris [4]

For these question, it has two separate equations: 2f(a) and f(2a) .

For f(2a) equations its x=2a, so you must substitute 2a into the f(x) equation

For 2f(a), it means the two time of f(a) equation with x=a, so you substitute a inti f(x) equation first, then you multiply it by 2.
