Three horses are side-by-side on a merry-go-round: one at the edge, one near the axis, and one in between. Each horse has the sa

Answer:

one at the edge

Explanation:

The relation between the linear velocity and the angular velocity is given by

v = r x ω

Where, v be the linear velocity, ω be the angular velocity and r be the radius of the circular path.

As the angular velocity is constant, thus, the linear velocity depends on the radius of circular path.

So, the horse which is near to the edge has maximum radius of circular path in which it is rotating. So, the horse which is at the edge of the merry go round has maximum linear speed.

harina [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

a)

Ff = μmgcosθ

Ff = 0.28(1600)(9.8)cos(-84)

Ff = 458.9217...

Ff = 460 N

b)  ignoring the curves required at top and bottom which change the friction force significantly, especially at the bottom where centripetal acceleration will greatly increase normal forces and thus friction force.

W = Ffd

W = 458.9217(-49.4/sin(-84)

W = 22,795.6119...

W = 23 kJ

c) same assumptions as part b

The change in potential energy minus the work of friction will be kinetic energy.

KE = PE - W

½mv² = mgh - (μmgcosθ)d

v² = 2(gh - (μgcosθ)(h/sinθ))

v = √(2gh(1 - μcotθ))

v = √(2(9.8)(49.4)(1 - 0.28cot84))

v = 30.6552...

v = 31 m/s

Weight is influenced by which of the following
nignag [31]

Out of the given options, weight is influenced by mass and gravity

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation: </u>

The object's mass is defined as the quantity of a matter with which the object is formed. It can change its state of matter but the quantity will remain the same. However, the weight is defined as how much force gravity exerts on the object's mass to pull it.

The mass is always same irrespective the location but the weight may vary from one place to the other while talking for the bigger picture. For example, the object's weight may be 60 kg on Earth but when it is measured on the moon, it will be lesser.

The weight of an object generally has nothing doing with the volume and it doesn't depend solely on the gravitational pull. The mass plays a crucial role.

                                  W=F=m \times g
