An object in circular motion has velocity that is constantly changing. The direction of the acceleration is
1 answer:
<h2>Answer: Toward the center of the circle.</h2>
This situation is characteristic of the uniform circular motion , in which the movement of a body describes a circumference of a given radius with constant speed.
However, in this movement the velocity has a constant magnitude, but its direction varies continuously.
Let's say is the velocity vector, whose direction is perpendicular to the radius
of the trajectory, therefore
the acceleration
is directed toward the center of the circumference.

Answer:
Second drop: 1.04 m
First drop: 1.66 m
Explanation:
Assuming the droplets are not affected by aerodynamic drag.
They are in free fall, affected only by gravity.
I set a frame of reference with the origin at the nozzle and the positive X axis pointing down.
We can use the equation for position under constant acceleration.
X(t) = x0 + v0 * t + 1/2 * a *t^2
x0 = 0
a = 9.81 m/s^2
v0 = 0
Then:
X(t) = 4.9 * t^2
The drop will hit the floor when X(t) = 1.9
1.9 = 4.9 * t^2
t^2 = 1.9 / 4.9
That is the moment when the 4th drop begins falling.
Assuming they fall at constant interval,
Δt = 0.62 / 3 = 0.2 s (approximately)
The second drop will be at:
X2(0.62) = 4.9 * (0.62 - 1*0.2)^2 = 0.86 m
And the third at:
X3(0.62) = 4.9 * (0.62 - 2*0.2)^2 = 0.24 m
The positions are:
1.9 - 0.86 = 1.04 m
1.9 - 0.24 = 1.66 m
above the floor
Answer:
3.90 degrees
Explanation:
Let g= 9.81 m/s2. The gravity of the 30kg grocery cart is
W = mg = 30*9.81 = 294.3 N
This gravity is split into 2 components on the ramp, 1 parallel and the other perpendicular to the ramp.
We can calculate the parallel one since it's the one that affects the force required to push up
F = WsinΘ
Since customer would not complain if the force is no more than 20N
F = 20
So the ramp cannot be larger than 3.9 degrees
