A fairgrounds ride spins its occupants inside a flying saucer-shaped container. if the horizontal circular path the riders follo

w has a 5.00 m radius, at how many revolutions per minute will the riders be subjected to a centripetal acceleration whose magnitude is 1.50 times that due to gravity?

We know that the acceleration due to gravity g is: g = 9.81 m/s^2

So the centripetal acceleration (w) is:

w^2 = 1.5 g / r

w^2 = 1.5 * (9.81 m/s^2) / 5 m

w = 1.716 rad / s

To convert to rad to rev:

w = (1.716 rad / s) * (1 rev / 2π rad) * (60 s/min)

<span>w = 16.4 rev/min </span>

What can I do to increase range of motion in a joint
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

Damian here! (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧

Stretching is used to improve range-of-motion (ROM) of a joint, but why? The most common reason is that the joint ROM is limited and is somehow affecting performance of a desired activity. Stretching is also used as a preventative measure.

Explanation:hope this helps? :))

A person pushes a 50kg box to the right with 100N of force at a constant velocity of 5m/s. Calculate the coefficient of friction
Anna11 [10]
The weight of the box is 50x9.8 = 490 N. The force of friction is 100N. F= μΝ so coefficient = 100/490 = 0.20

1. Spring force is proportional to stretch distance, F=kd. Do you expect doubling the stretch distance double the force?
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

The spring force is given as:

          F  = kd

F is the spring force

K is the spring constant

d is the magnitude of the stretch

 Since k is a constant, therefore, doubling the stretch distance will double the force.

Both stretch distance and force applied can be said to be directly proportional to one another.
