If the radius of an object in circular motion is doubled, what change will occur in the centripetal force?
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

The centripetal force will be 1/2 as big as it was. (option c)

Explanation:

Recall that centripetal force (F_c) is defined as: F_c=m\,* \frac{v^2}{r} where "v" is the tangential velocity of the object in circular motion, "r" is the radius of rotation and "m" is the object's mass.

So if we start with such formula with a given mass, radius, and tangential velocity, and then we move to a situation where everything stays the same except for the radius which doubles, then the new centripetal force (F'_c) will be given by: F'_c=m\,* \frac{v^2}{2r}

and this is half (1/2) of the original force:

F'_c=m\,* \frac{v^2}{2r}\\F'_c=m\,* \frac{v^2}{r}*\frac{1}{2} \\F'_c=F_c\,*\,\frac{1}{2}

which is expressed by option "c" of the provided list.

Three capacitors, C1 = 2 μF, C2 = 4 μF, C3 = 4 μF, are connected in series Determine the capacitance of a single capacitor that
julsineya [31]

Answer:

1 μF

Explanation:

To obtain the answer to the question, all we need to do is to calculate the equivalent capacitance of the capacitors. This can be obtained as illustrated below.

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Capacitor 1 (C₁) = 2 μF

Capacitor 2 (C₂) = 4 μF

Capacitor 3 (C₃) = 4 μF

Equivalent capacitance (Cₑq) =?

Cₑq = 1/C₁ + 1/C₂ + 1/C₃

Cₑq = 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/4

Cₑq = (2 + 1 + 1)/4

Cₑq = 4/4

Cₑq = 1 μF

Thus, the answer to the question is 1 μF

A boxer punches a sheet of paper in midair and brings it from rest up to a speed of 30 m/s in 0.060 s .
zimovet [89]

Answer:

Force exerted, F = 1.5 N

Explanation:

It is given that, a boxer punches a sheet of paper in midair and brings it from rest up to a speed of 30 m/s in 0.060 s.

i.e. u = 0

v = 30 m/s

Time taken, t = 0.06 s

Mass of the paper, m = 0.003 kg

We need to find the force the boxer exert on it. The force can be calculated using second law of motion as :

F=m\times a

F=m\times (\dfrac{v-u}{t})

F=0.003\times (\dfrac{30}{0.06})

F = 1.5 N

So, the force the boxer exert on the paper is 1.5 N. Hence, this is the required solution.
