At an amusement park there is a ride in which cylindrically shaped chambers spin around a central axis. People sit in seats faci

ng the axis (middle), with their backs against the outer wall. At one instant the outer wall moves at a speed of 3.2 m/s, and an 83kg person feels a 560N force pressing against his back. What is the radius of a chamber

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to centripetal acceleration and Newton's second law. In the case of acceleration, we will define how it is shaped, and we will equate that acceleration to that stipulated by Newton in his second law. We will clear the variable of the 'radius'. Centripetal acceleration is described as,

a_R = \frac{v^2}{r}

Here,

v =Velocity

r = Radius

Now Newton's second law is,

F = ma_R

Here,

m = mass

a_R = Centripetal acceleration

Rearranging in function of the acceleration,

a_R = \frac{F}{m}

Rearranging the first equation in function of the radius

a_R = \frac{v^2}{r} \rightarrow r=\frac{v^2}{a_R}

Equating,

r = \frac{mv^2}{F}

Replacing,

r = \frac{(83kg)(3.2m/s^2)}{560N}

r = 1.518m

Therefore the radius of the  chamber is 1.518m

A particle of mass M moves along a straight line with initial speed vi. A force of magnitude F pushes the particle a distance D
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial kinetic energy of M = 1/2 M vi²

let final velocity be vf

v² = u² + 2a s

vf² =  vi² + 2 (F / M) x D

Kinetic energy

= 1/2 Mvf²

= 1/2 M ( vi² + 2 (F / M) x D

1/2 M vi² + FD

Ratio with initial value

1/2 M  vi² + FD) / 1/2 M  vi²

RK = 1 + FD / 2 M  vi²

A boat sails along the shore. To an observer, the boat appears to move at a speed of 22 m/s, and a man on the boat walking forwa
seropon [69]
The boat is moving at 22 m/s while the man is moving at 23.1 m/s.

That means the man, relative to the boat, is moving at 23.1-22 = 1.1 m/s.

v =d/t, so t = d/v --> t = 3/1.1 = 2.7 s
