SinA = 1000/2000 = 1/2

A = arsSin(1/2)
A = 30 degrees

Keeping the mass at 1.0 kg and the velocity at 10.0 m/s, record the magnitude of centripetal acceleration for each given radius

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

The centripetal acceleration for the first radius; 2.0 m = 50 m/s²

The centripetal acceleration for the second radius; 4.0 m = 25 m/s²

The centripetal acceleration for the third radius; 6.0 m = 16.67 m/s²

The centripetal acceleration for the fourth radius; 8.0 m = 12.5 m/s²

The centripetal acceleration for the fifth radius; 10.0 m = 10 m/s²

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the object, m = 1 kg

velocity of the object, v = 10 m/s

different values of the radius, 2.0 m 4.0 m 6.0 m 8.0 m 10.0 m

The centripetal acceleration for the first radius; 2.0 m

$a_c = \frac{v^2}{r} \\\\a_c_1= \frac{(10)^2}{2} \\\\a_c_1= 50 \ m/s^2$

The centripetal acceleration for the second radius; 4.0 m

$a_c_2= \frac{(10)^2}{4} \\\\a_c_2= 25 \ m/s^2$

The centripetal acceleration for the third radius; 6.0 m

$a_c_3= \frac{(10)^2}{6} \\\\a_c_3= 16.67 \ m/s^2$

The centripetal acceleration for the fourth radius; 8.0 m

$a_c_4= \frac{(10)^2}{8} \\\\a_c_4= 12.5 \ m/s^2$

The centripetal acceleration for the fifth radius; 10.0 m

$a_c_5= \frac{(10)^2}{10} \\\\a_c_5= 10 \ m/s^2$

You drop a pencil from your desk, which is 1 meter above the floor. How long does it take for the pencil to hit the floor? How f

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

1. 0.45 s.

2. 4.41 m/s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Height (h) = 1 m

Time (t) =?

Velocity (v) =?

1. Determination of the time taken for the pencil to hit the floor.

Height (h) = 1 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) =?

h = ½gt²

1 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

1 = 4.9 × t²

Divide both side by 4.8

t² = 1/4.9

Take the square root of both side

t = √(1/4.9)

t = 0.45 s.

Thus, it will take 0.45 s for the pencil to hit the floor.

2. Determination of the velocity with which the pencil hit the floor.

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) = 0.45 s.

Final velocity (v) =?

v = u + gt

v = 0 + (9.8 × 0.45)

v = 0 + 4.41

v = 4.41 m/s

Thus, the pencil hit the floor with a velocity of 4.41 m/s

Nancys airplane trip took 4 hour. For one-fourth of that time, the airplane flew at a speed of 880 km/h, it flew at a speed of 6

9966 [12]

So for a minute lets ignore the 880 km/h. If it took 4 hours and she flew at 600 km/h 600*4=2400. Now lets Look at the 880 bit. If it took 4 hours and she where to fly at 880 it would've been 880*4=3520. Lets do 2400-600=1800, now we've got the 600 kmh bit done. Now lets see if you fly 880 km/h for one hour then you add 1800+880=2680.
