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 bird flies 3.7 meters in 46 seconds, what is its speed?
victus00 [196]

Answer:

Speed is 0.08 m/s.

Explanation:

Given the distance that the bird flies = 3.7 meters

The time is taken by the bird to fly the 3.7 meters = 46 seconds  

We have given distance and time. Now we have to find the speed at which the bird flies. So, to calculate the speed of the bird we have to divide the distance by the time.  

Below is the formula to find the speed.

Speed = Distance / Time

Now insert the given value in the formula.

Speed = 3.7 / 46 = 0.08 m/s
