Why would an orange roll of your cafeteria tray if you stopped suddenly

Physics
1 answer:
Vikentia [17]3 years ago
6 0
Because the frictional force between the orange skin peel is great enough when you are walking for it to be carried on the tray, along with the gravitational force downwards onto the tray. When you stop, the force that you exerted moving forward it the same as on the tray and on the orange. So when you stop, the force is still on the orange as the same velocity as your we’re traveling, while the tray and you stop.

If your speed changes from 10 km/h to 6 km/h, you have a(n) ______ acceleration.
Delicious77 [7]

If your speed changes from 10 km/h to 6 km/h then
you have an acceleration. 

Whether it's a positive or negative one completely depends
on which direction you decided to call the positive direction,
when you started considering your speed and its changes.

If you decided to call the direction in which you're traveling
the positive direction, then a decrease in your speed is a
negative acceleration. 

But you could just as easily have said that you're traveling
in the negative direction.  If you did that, then a decrease in
your speed would be a positive acceleration.

It's completely up to you, and how you define things.

A 225-g object is attached to a spring that has a force constant of 74.5 N/m. The object is pulled 6.25 cm to the right of equil
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

1.137278672 m/s

+5.9 cm or -5.9 cm

Explanation:

A = Amplitude = 6.25 cm

m = Mass of object = 225 g

k = Spring constant = 74.5 N/m

Maximum speed is given by

v_m=A\omega\\\Rightarrow v_m=A\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}\\\Rightarrow v_m=6.25\times 10^{-2}\times \sqrt{\dfrac{74.5}{0.225}}\\\Rightarrow v_m=1.137278672\ m/s

The maximum speed of the object is 1.137278672 m/s

Velocity is at any instant is given by

\dfrac{v_m}{3}=\omega\sqrt{A^2-x^2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{A\omega}{3}=\omega\sqrt{A^2-x^2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{A}{3}=\sqrt{A^2-x^2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{A^2}{9}=A^2-x^2\\\Rightarrow A^2-\dfrac{A^2}{9}=x^2\\\Rightarrow x^2=\dfrac{8}{9}A^2\\\Rightarrow x=A\sqrt{\dfrac{8}{9}}\\\Rightarrow x=6.25\times 10^{-2}\sqrt{\dfrac{8}{9}}\\\Rightarrow x=\pm 0.0589255650989\ m

The locations are +5.9 cm or -5.9 cm
