What is the difference between speed and velocity with regards to uniform circular motion?

Physics
1 answer:
Mandarinka [93]3 years ago

Speed ignores the direction of motion and is a scalar quantity. Velocity requires a directional component (like the arrow in a vector). In circular motion, the speed remains the same but the velocity is constantly changing since the direction of motion is constantly changing (ie. it is accelerating).

Kenny and Candy decided to sit on a see-saw while visiting a local play park. Candy, of mass
pochemuha

Answer:

(i) 208 cm from the pivot

(ii) Move further from the pivot

Explanation:

(i) Sum of the moments about the pivot of the seesaw is zero.

∑τ = Iα

(50 kg) (10 N/kg) (2.5 m) + (60 kg) (10 N/kg) x = 0

1250 Nm + 600 N x = 0

x = -2.08 m

Kenny should sit 208 cm on the other side of the pivot.

(ii) To increase the torque, Kenny should move away from the pivot.

deff fn [24]
0.49 N
On a spring scale that measures force, a reading shows the force of an object to be about half way between 0 N and 1 N. 0. 49 Newton is the most accurate measurement for the force. If we cluster the number values of 0 N to 1 N It would be 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0 N. These numbers indicate the micro intervals of 0-1. It cannot be the other given because the other values are either higher or lower which exceeds the 0-1 scale. Observe.

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

It depends on 2 factors

the nature of the materials

the normal force.

Explanation:

It depends on 2 factors

the nature of the materials that are in friction and the treatment that they have followed. This factor is expressed by a numerical value called the coefficient of friction or friction.

the force exerted by one body on the other, that is, the normal force.
