Answer:
D. 15 m/s downward
Explanation:
v = at + v₀
v = (-9.8 m/s²) (1.5 s) + (0 m/s)
v = -14.7 m/s
Rounded to two significant figures, the answer is D, 15 m/s downward.
Wow ! This will take more than one step, and we'll need to be careful
not to trip over our shoe laces while we're stepping through the problem.
The centripetal acceleration of any object moving in a circle is
(speed-squared) / (radius of the circle) .
Notice that we won't need to use the mass of the train.
We know the radius of the track. We don't know the trains speed yet,
but we do have enough information to figure it out. That's what we
need to do first.
Speed = (distance traveled) / (time to travel the distance).
Distance = 10 laps of the track. Well how far is that ? ? ?
1 lap = circumference of the track = (2π) x (radius) = 2.4π meters
10 laps = 24π meters.
Time = 1 minute 20 seconds = 80 seconds
The trains speed is (distance) / (time)
= (24π meters) / (80 seconds)
= 0.3 π meters/second .
NOW ... finally, we're ready to find the centripetal acceleration.
<span> (speed)² / (radius)
= (0.3π m/s)² / (1.2 meters)
= (0.09π m²/s²) / (1.2 meters)
= (0.09π / 1.2) m/s²
= 0.236 m/s² . (rounded)
If there's another part of the problem that wants you to find
the centripetal FORCE ...
Well, Force = (mass) · (acceleration) .
We know the mass, and we ( I ) just figured out the acceleration,
so you'll have no trouble calculating the centripetal force. </span>
Because the box keeps going straight at the same speed, while the seat under it speeds up, slows down, or changes direction.
Answer:
<u>Point </u><u>A</u>
Explanation:
And the strongest force of gravity is point C
Answer:
<em>The force is now 9 times the original force</em>
Explanation:
<u>Coulomb's Law
</u>
The electrostatic force between two charged particles is directly proportional to the product of their charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
Coulomb's formula is:
Where:
q1, q2 = the particles' charge
d= The distance between the particles
Suppose the distance is reduced to d'=d/3, the new force F' is:
The force is now 9 times the original force
