Centripetal acceleration is the force acting on the body who's moving in a circular motion. It is still a force, which according to Newton's Second Law of Motion,

F = ma
F = (70 kg)(2)(9.81 m/s²)
F = 1373.4 N

<em>Thus, the answer is B.</em>

Which calculates the intensity of an electric field at a point where a 0.50 C charge experiences a force of 20. N?
tester [92]

Answer: 40\ N/C

Explanation:

Given

Magnitude of charge is q=0.5\ C

Force experienced is F=20\ N

Electric field intensity is the electrostatic force per unit charge

\therefore E=\dfrac{F}{q}\\\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{20}{0.50}\\\\\Rightarrow E=40\ N/C

Thus, the electric field intensity is 40\ N/C

Two blocks of ice, one four times as heavy as the other, are at rest on a frozen lake. A person pushes each block the same dista
qaws [65]

Answer:b

Explanation:

Given

mass of heavy object is 4m

mass of lighter object is m

A person pushes each block  with same force F

According to Work Energy theorem Change in kinetic energy of object is equal to Work done by all the object

As launching velocity is same for both the object so heavier mass must possess greater kinetic energy . For same force heavier mass must be pushed 4 times farther than the light block .

\Delta (K.E.)_H=\frac{1}{2}(4m)v^2

\Delta (K.E.)_L=\frac{1}{2}(m)v^2

\Delta K.E.=F\times d

So the correct option is b

A fireman of 80 kg slides down a pole.When he reaches the bottom, 4.2 m below his starting point, his speed is 2.2 m/s . By how
levacccp [35]

Answer:

3099 J

Explanation:

The increase in thermal energy corresponds to the mechanical energy lost in the process.

The mechanical energy is given by the sum of gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy of the fireman:

E=K+U

At the top of the pole, the fireman has no kinetic energy, so all his mechanical energy is just potential energy:

E=U=mgh=(80 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(4.2 m)=3293 J

When the fireman reaches the bottom, he has no gravitational potential energy, so his mechanical energy is just given by his kinetic energy:

E=K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}(80 kg)(2.2 m/s)^2=194 J

So, the loss in mechanical energy was

\Delta E=3293 J-194 J=3099 J

and this corresponds to the increase in thermal energy.
