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. by analyzing and making inferences about them
Explanation:
Out of the choices given, the statement about how light travels is "<span>Light can travel in a vacuum, and it travels faster if the light source is moving."</span>
Newtons 3.law: Action = Reaction
If a body exerts a force on a rope of 400 N the rope exerts a force on the body of 400N also. So the tension in the rope is 400N. See pictures below.
The complete sentence is:
A calorimeter directly measures changes in temperature in order to calculate specific heat.
In fact, the amount of energy acquired/released by a substance is directly proportional to its change in temperature due to the equation
where Q is the amount of energy, m is the mass of the substance, Cs is the specific heat of the substance and is the change in temperature. Therefore, by knowing Q, m and by measuring the change in temperature, it is possible to calculate Cs, the specific heat capacity of the substance.
