Answer:

Ac = 36320 m/s^2 = 3702 g

Explanation:

First let's find the linear velocity of the propeller tip.

The angular velocity is 1200 rev/min, which is 20 rev/s

One rev is 2*pi radians, so 20 rev/sec = 40*pi rad/s

To find linear velocity, we multiply the angular velocity by the radius, so:

V = 40*pi * 2.3 = 92*pi m/s

The centripetal acceleration is given by Ac = V^2/r, being r the radius. So:

Ac = (92*pi)^2/2.3 = 36320 m/s^2

If g is the gravity acceleration = 9.81 m/s^2, we can find Ac in multiples of g by dividing their values:

Ac = 36320/9.81 = 3702 g

2. How does the mass of an object affect its gravitational pull?
mrs_skeptik [129]
Objects with more mass has more gravity so, the closer objects are to each other the stronger gravitational pull. Hope this helps

Which season is signaled by average lower temperature and indirect, angled sunlight?
anygoal [31]

When the earth in its translation movement has the earth's axis is further from the sun and the energy per unit area is minimal, we have the winter season

 

The translation is the movement of the earth around the Sun, this movement establishes the duration of the year, also the earth's axis is inclined about 23.5º in relation to the orbit.

A consequence of this inclination of the Earth's axis is that the solar rays reach the surface of the planet with different inclinations, when they arrive more perpendicularly the energy deposited by the surface unit is greater and therefore the temperature increases, this period is called Summer.

When the rays arrive with the greater inclination, the energy deposited per unit area is minimal, which is why the temperature decreases, this period is called Winter.

In the periods when the axis is almost vertical we have an average absorption of energy, these two periods are called Spring and Autumn.

In conclusion, the winter season occurs when the terrestrial axis is furthest from the sun and the energy per unit of area is minimal.

If a body is accelerating m change the velocity of 2 metre per second square when it was acted by five hundred Newton of force t
WARRIOR [948]
  • Force=500N
  • Acceleration=2m/s^2

using newtons law

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow Force=Mass(Acceleration)

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow Mass=\dfrac{Force}{Acceleration}

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow Mass=\dfrac{500}{2}

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow Mass=250kg

Kepler’s third law states that for all objects orbiting a given body, the cube of the semimajor axis (A) is proportional to the
GarryVolchara [31]

Explanation:

Kepler’s third law states that for all objects orbiting a given body, the cube of the semimajor axis (A) is proportional to the square of the orbital period (P).

For each of our planets orbiting the Sun, the relationship between the orbital period and semimajor axis can be represented by the equation as:

P^2=kA^3

k is constant of proportionality

It is required to solve the above equation for k

k=\dfrac{P^2}{A^3}

Which statement best describes the energy of activation?
Varvara68 [4.7K]

hi <3

i believe the answer would be D, as when the temperature increases the particles have more energy and can overcome the activation energy more rapidly.

hope this helps :)
