An 85 kg object is moving at a constant speed of 15 m/s in a circular path, which has a radius of 20 meters. What centripetal fo

Mass, m = 85 kg, velocity = 15 m/s, radius = 20m.

Centripetal force = mv²/r

F = 85*15²/20 = 85*15*15/20 = 956.25 N

How can a high school student have more momentum than a truck

morpeh [17]

Answer:

When truck is at rest while student is under motion

Explanation:

Since it is obvious that the mass of a truck is more than that of a student, we know that momentum is a product of mass and velocity

P=mv where m represent mass, v is velocity. When the student has more speed than that of truck, he exerts more momentum. The only way a student can exert more momentum is by having more speed while the truck is at rest. In such case, the momentum of truck will be zero while momentum of student will have a value

Explain the following statement: A concentrated acid is not necessarily a strong acid.

andrezito [222]

Concentration involves the relative amounts of solvent and solute in a solution, when strength is related to the extent to which a substance dissociates :))

A bike travels 4 miles in half an hour at what speed

Sloan [31]

8 miles per hour
because if it is moving at 4 miles every half hour that means you have to multiply it by two to get it in miles per hour and we all know that 4 times 2 is 8 so it would be 8 miles per hour =)

A wheel has a radius of r = 2.0 m and it rolls down a smooth incline. The height of the incline is h = 8.0 m . What is the angul

zepelin [54]

The angular velocity of the wheel at the bottom of the incline is 4.429 rad/sec

The angular velocity (ω) of an object is the rate at which the object's angle position is changing in relation to time.

For a wheel attached to an incline angle, the angular velocity can be computed by considering the conservation of energy theorem.

As such the total kinetic energy (K.E) and rotational kinetic energy (R.K.E) at a point is equal to the total potential energy (P.E) at the other point.

i.e.

P.E = K.E + R.K.E

$\mathbf{mgh = \dfrac{1}{2}m(r \times \omega)^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}\times I \times \omega^2}$

$\mathbf{gh = \dfrac{1}{2}(r \times \omega)^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}\times r^2 \times \omega^2}$

$\mathbf{2 \times \dfrac{gh}{r^2} =\omega^2 + \omega^2}$

$\mathbf{2 \omega^2=2 \times \dfrac{9.81 \times 8 m }{2.0 ^2} }$

$\mathbf{\omega^2=\dfrac{39.24 }{2}}$

$\mathbf{\omega=\sqrt{19.62 } \ rad/sec}$

$\mathbf{\omega=4.429 \ rad/sec}$

Therefore, we can conclude that the angular velocity of the wheel at the bottom of the incline is 4.429 rad/sec
