Answer:
(B) 0.5 g
Explanation:
Newton's second law says ∑ F i = m a .
the rate of change in momentum of a body is proportional to the force applied on the body.
f∝ma
f=kma
were k is constant and equal to 1
The centripetal acceleration is an acceleration.
the tension on the swing and object weight goes to the left hand side while the centripetal acceleration goes to the right handside
At the bottom of the swing, ΣF = FT – mg = mac;
notice that the tension in the swing is 1.5 times the weight of the object
we can write
1.5mg – mg = mac,
0.5mg = mac
0.5 g=ac
Answer:
a. Acceleration, a = 1.88 m/s²
b. Time, t = 7.87 seconds.
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Initial velocity, U = 14.5m/s
Final velocity, V = 29.3m/s
Distance, S = 172m
a. To find the acceleration of the speedboat;
We would use the third equation of motion;
V² = U² + 2aS
Substituting into the formula
29.3² = 14.5² + 2a*172
858.49 = 210.25 + 344a
344a = 858.49 - 210.25
344a = 648.24
a = 648.24/344
Acceleration, a = 1.88 m/s²
b. To find the time;
We would use the first equation of motion;
V = U + at
29.3 = 14.5 + 1.88t
1.88t = 29.3 - 14.5
1.88t = 14.8
Time, t = 14.8/1.88
Time, t = 7.87 seconds.
Before positive psychology, the main focus was mostly pathology, that is, studying various psychological issues and sometimes finding ways to treat them, or sometimes not and just studying them for the sake of studying them and noting their occurrence.
