<span>When an object travels in a curved path, there must be a force acting toward the center of the circular trajectory. This force is called "centripetal force", and it cause an acceleration of the object, called "centripetal acceleration". The effect of this acceleration is that the velocity of the object changes in direction: however if the circular motion is uniform, the speed (=the magnitude of the velocity) does not change. In this case, the magnitude of the centripetal force is given by

where m is the mass of the object, v its velocity, and r the radius of the circular path.</span>
Answer:
-2.8 m/s²
Explanation:
Acceleration: This can be defined as the rate of change of velocity The S. I unit of acceleration is m/s²
Using the equation of motion,
v² = u² + 2as................... Equation 1
Where v = Final velocity, u = initial velocity, a = acceleration, s = distance,
Given: v = 6.0 m/s, u = 8.0 m/s, s = 5.0 m.
Substituting into equation 1
6² = 8²+2(a)5
36 = 64 + 10a
10a = 36-64
10a = -28
10a/10 = -28/10
a = -2.8 m/s²
Note: a is negative because because the skater decelerate on the rough ice
Hence the magnitude of her acceleration is = -2.8 m/s²
Answer:
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Weight of object = 49N
Force applied = 12N
Unknown:
Acceleration of object = ?
Solution:
The acceleration of the object is found by dividing the force by the weight;
Acceleration = 
= 0.25m/s²
Answer:
A. Sulfur _________ group 16 chalcogens
B. Sodium _________ group 1 alkali metals
C. Argon _________ group 18 noble gases
D. Silicon _________ group 14 carbon family
E. Chlorine _________ group 17 halogens
F. Phosphorus_________ group 15 pnicogens
Answer:
The answer is D. A Vacumn
Explanation:
Sound cannot travel through a vacuum. A vacuum is an area without any air, like space. So sound cannot travel through space because there is no matter for the vibrations to work in.
