Answer:

B. 25 m/s/s

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration is the square of the tangential velocity divided by the radius of curvature.

a = v² / r

Given v = 10 m/s and r = 4 m:

a = (10 m/s)² / 4 m

a = 25 m/s²

If a 0.200-kilogram ball sits on a shelf 2.00 meters from the floor, how much mechanical energy (me) does it possess? More than

iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

Mechanical energy = 3.92 J

exactly 3.92 j

Explanation:

As we know that mechanical energy is sum of kinetic energy and potential energy of the system

so here we can say that mechanical energy is sum of kinetic energy of ball and its potential energy

Since ball is at rest so kinetic energy of the ball must be ZERO

Now for potential energy we know that

$U = mgh$

now we know

m = 0.2 kg

h = 2 m

now for potential ene'rgy

$U = (0.20)(9.8)(2)$

$U = 3.92 J$

so mechanical energy is given as

Mechanical Energy = 3.92 + 0 = 3.92 J

Answer:

Explanation: Bulk Modulus (K) = $\frac{Volumetric Stress}{Volumetric Strain}$

This is the same as saying it equal to the change in pressure with respect to the change in volume divided by initial volume.

Bulk modulus elasticity may also be expressed in terms of pressure and density:

Remember: Strain is a unit-less quantity.

$K=\frac{(p_1 - p_0)}{\frac{(\rho_1- \rho_0)}{\rho_0}}$

Here,

ρ0 and ρ1 are the initial and final density values.

p₀ & p₁ are the initial and final pressure values.

Given data:

bulk modulus, $k= 1.8 \times10^{9} N.m^{-2}$

volumetric strain, $\epsilon _{v}=2\times10^{-3}$

To find: Force exerted by the juice per square centimeter, $\sigma _{v}$

Solution: $\sigma _{v}=\epsilon _{v}\times K$

⇒ $\sigma _{v}= 2\times10^{-3}\times1.8 \times10^{9}$

$\sigma _{v}= 3.6\times10^{6} N.m^{-2} =3.6\times10^{2}N.cm^{-2}$
