A 20-kg cart travels at 20 m/s in a circle with a radius of 20 m. What is the centripetal force?

Answer:

The equation for centripetal force is:

T = (mv^2)/r

T = centripetal force

m = mass

v = speed

r = radius

T = [20kg * (20 m/s * 20m/s)] / 20 m

T = [20kg * 400 m/s^2] / 20 m

T = 8,000 kg m/s^2 / 20 m

T = 400 N

Centripetal force = (mass) x (speed)² / (radius)

                           = (20 kg) x (20 m/s)² / (20 m)

                           = (20 x 20 / 20)  (kg-meter/sec²)

                           = 20 newtons

Answer:

Explanation:

The inclined plane

An inclined plane consists of a sloping surface; it is used for raising heavy bodies. The plane offers a mechanical advantage in that the force required to move an object up the incline is less than the weight being raised (discounting friction). The steeper the slope, or incline, the more nearly the required force approaches the actual weight. Expressed mathematically, the force F required to move a block D up an inclined plane without friction is equal to its weight W times the sine of the angle the inclined plane makes with the horizontal (θ). The equation is F = W sin θ.

The lever

A lever is a bar or board that rests on a support called a fulcrum. A downward force exerted on one end of the lever can be transferred and increased in an upward direction at the other end, allowing a small force to lift a heavy weight.

The wedge

A wedge is an object that tapers to a thin edge. Pushing the wedge in one direction creates a force in a sideways direction. It is usually made of metal or wood and is used for splitting, lifting, or tightening, as in securing a hammer head onto its handle.

The wheel and axle

A wheel and axle is made up of a circular frame (the wheel) that revolves on a shaft or rod (the axle). In its earliest form it was probably used for raising weights or water buckets from wells.

Its principle of operation is best explained by way of a device with a large gear and a small gear attached to the same shaft. The tendency of a force, F, applied at the radius R on the large gear to turn the shaft is sufficient to overcome the larger force W at the radius r on the small gear. The force amplification, or mechanical advantage, is equal to the ratio of the two forces (W:F) and also equal to the ratio of the radii of the two gears (R:r)

Answer:

The movement of an object depends on the reference frame, so it is important to predicate it.

The amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one celsius degree is called a
Elena L [17]

The amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one celsius degree is called a calorie.

<h3>How can you define calorie?</h3>

In physics, we can define it as a unit of measurement that defines the amount of energy to raise the temperature of 1 gram  of water by 1°C. Each material has its unique calorie, however by definition we use water as it is the lowest of all the elements.

Normally, calorimetry is directly linked with the thermal capacity that an element has to contain heat.
