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.

6 0

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.

A electric heater that draws 13.5 a of dc current has been left on for 10 min. how many electrons that have passed through the h
kicyunya [14]
By definition, Ampere is a unit of current which is a measure of the amount of charge passing through a point in a circuit per unit  of time, with an equivalent charge of 1.602 x 10^(-19) Coulomb per electron. To determine the number of electrons passing through the heater, we use the definition of the current. We calculate as follows:

13.5 A = 13.5 C per second
Charge = 13.5 C/s (10 min) ( 60 s / 1 min)
Charge = 8100 C 

Number of electrons = 8100 C / 1.602 x 10^(-19) C per electron
Number of electrons = 5.1 x 10^22 electrons

Therefore, there are 5.1 x10^22 electrons that assed through the heater for 10 minutes.

Six artificial satellites circle a space station at constant speed. The mass m of each satellite, distance L from the space stat
nikklg [1K]

Answers:

a) T_{2}>T_{5}>T_{1}>T_{3}=T_{6}>T_{4}

b) a_{4}>a_{6}>a_{1}>a_{3}>a_{5}>a_{2}

Explanation:

a) Since we are told the satellites circle the space station at constant speed, we can assume they follow a uniform circular motion and their tangential speeds V are given by:

V=\omega L=\frac{2\pi}{T} L (1)

Where:

\omega is the angular frequency

L is the radius of the orbit of each satellite

T is the period of the orbit of each satellite

Isolating T:

T=\frac{2 \pi L}{V} (2)

Applying this equation to each satellite:

T_{1}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{1}}=261.79 s (3)

T_{2}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{2}}=1570.79 s (4)

T_{3}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{3}}=196.349 s (5)

T_{4}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{4}}=98.174 s (6)

T_{5}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{5}}=785.398 s (7)

T_{6}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{6}}=196.349 s (8)

Ordering this periods from largest to smallest:

T_{2}>T_{5}>T_{1}>T_{3}=T_{6}>T_{4}

b) Acceleration a is defined as the variation of velocity in time:

a=\frac{V}{T} (9)

Applying this equation to each satellite:

a_{1}=\frac{V_{1}}{T_{1}}=0.458 m/s^{2} (10)

a_{2}=\frac{V_{2}}{T_{2}}=0.0254 m/s^{2} (11)

a_{3}=\frac{V_{3}}{T_{3}}=0.4074 m/s^{2} (12)

a_{4}=\frac{V_{4}}{T_{4}}=1.629 m/s^{2} (13)

a_{5}=\frac{V_{5}}{T_{5}}=0.101 m/s^{2} (14)

a_{6}=\frac{V_{6}}{T_{6}}=0.814 m/s^{2} (15)

Ordering this acceerations from largest to smallest:

a_{4}>a_{6}>a_{1}>a_{3}>a_{5}>a_{2}
