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 measurment describes the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of one gram of a material by one degree celsius?
ella [17]

<u>Answer:</u>

Specific Heat

<u>Explanation:</u>

Specific heat is the measurement which describes the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of one gram of a material by one degree Celsius.

It is the amount of heat required per unit mass to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius. The relationship between heat and the temperature change is usually expressed as shown below:

Q=cmΔT

where Q = heat added,

c= specific heat,

m=mass; and

ΔT = change in temperature

Which projectiles will be visibly affected by air resistance when they fall?
NemiM [27]
Any object that is launched as a projectile will lose speed and, as a result, altitude, as it travels through the air. The rate at which the object loses speed and altitude depends on the amount of force that way applied to it when it was launched. It is also dependent on the size and shape of the item. This is why something like, say, a football is much faster to fall to the ground than a bullet.
