A campus bird spots a member of an opposing football team in an amusement park. The football player is on a ride where he goes a

round at angular velocity w at distance R from the center. The bird flies in a horizontal circle above him. Will a dropping the bird releases while flying directly above the person's head hit him? Ignore air resistance.

Answer:

No..

Explanation:

As the bird releases the drop there is no internal force which will drive it into circular path but it will fall on tangent of the arc at the point of release because it has a tangential velocity same as bird. Path will be parabola in vertical plane.

As the person is on circular arc constantly moving it will never meet that drop.

Two identical small charged spheres are a certain distance apart, and each one initially experiences an electrostatic force of m
monitta

Answer:

1/4F

Explanation:

We already know thatThe electrostatic force is directly proportional to the product of the charge, from Coulomb's law.

So F α Qq

But if it is now half the initial charges, then

F α (1/2)Q *(1/2)q

F α (1/4)Qq

Thus the resultant charges are each halved is (1/4) and the first initial force experienced at full charge.

Thus the answer will be 1/4F

How many neutrons does element x have if it’s atomic number is 40 and it’s mass number is 82?
Black_prince [1.1K]
The atomic number gives you the number of protons element x has. Since the mass of protons and neutrons are almost similar(around 1 amu), the mass number can be thought of as the sum of protons and neutrons. so if element x whose atomic number is 40 has a mass number of 82, then we know that 42 of those must be neutrons.

A car accelerates for 10 seconds. During this time, the angular
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

the angular acceleration of the car is 1.5 rad/s²

Explanation:

Given;

initial angular velocity, \omega_i = 10 rad/s

final angular velocity, \omega_f = 25 rad/s

time of motion, t = 10 s

The angular acceleration of the car is calculated as follows;

a_r = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i }{t} \\\\a_r = \frac{25-10}{10} = 1.5 \ rad/s^2

Therefore, the angular acceleration of the car is 1.5 rad/s²

Explain why it is esaier to climb a mountain on a zigzag path rather than one straight up the side. is your increase in gravitat
pogonyaev

Answer:

More work done with less power

The increase in gravitational energy is the same as the height which is a function of gravitational energy is the same in both cases

Explanation:

Climbing the mountain in zigzag pattern is easier because

1. The time it takes to climb increases so that the required power or rate of doing work decreases

2. Climbing in zigzag pattern affords the use of leverages by the sides

3. Similar mechanical power gain and efficiency from using a drive screw instead of a nail to fasten items together can be achieved

The increase in gravitational energy is the same gravitational energy ~ mass × gravity ×height
