Answer:

The correct answer is

1. the boy 2.

Explanation:

Since Tangential acceleration = v²/r  then the

v = ωr and v² =  ω²r² then the tangential acceleration = ω²r²/r = ω²r

This shows that  since ω is the same for both of them, the boy with greater r has the most acceleration.

The tangential acceleration a_t = α·r

Three ropes A, B and C are tied together in one single knot K. (See figure.)
noname [10]

The tension in the rope B is determined as 10.9 N.

<h3>Vertical angle of cable B</h3>

tanθ = (6 - 4)/(5 - 0)

tan θ = (2)/(5)

tan θ = 0.4

θ = arc tan(0.4) = 21.8 ⁰

<h3>Angle between B and C</h3>

θ = 21.8 ⁰ + 21.8 ⁰ = 43.6⁰

Apply cosine rule to determine the tension in rope B;

A² = B² + C² - 2BC(cos A)

B = C

A² = B² + B² - (2B²)(cos A)

A² = 2B² - 2B²(cos 43.6)

A² = 0.55B²

B² = A²/0.55

B² = 65.3/0.55

B² = 118.73

B = √(118.73)

B = 10.9 N

Thus, the tension in the rope B is determined as 10.9 N.

Describe in terms of kinetic and potential energy what happens if an apple falls from a tree and comes to rest on the ground( wr
Lunna [17]

Answer:

An apple hanging at a branch has potential energy due its position. It can be written as PE= mgh where m is the mass of the apple h is the distance between the apple and the ground and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

as the apple falls from the tree it loses its potential energy and gains kinetic energy due to the movement of the apple. Its kinetic energy will be given by KE= 1/2mv²  where m is the mass of the apple and v is the speed with which the apple falls.

As the apple falls the height or the distance reduces and PE becomes reduces. But it gains Kinetic energy due to its speed.

But when the apple falls to the ground and comes to rest its kinetic energy is converted to potential energy.

thus the total energy remains the same. it changes from one form to the other but remains unaltered.

the resolution of a camera or other optical system is determined by the relationship between what two scales?
Triss [41]

The resolution of a camera or other optical system is determined by the relationship between that two scales of Light waves of different wavelengths produce diverse colors.  

A waveform signal that is carried in space or down a wire has a wavelength, which is the separation between two identical places (adjacent crests) in the consecutive cycles. This length is typically defined in wireless systems in meters (m), centimeters (cm), or millimeters (mm) (mm).

The distance between the crests or troughs of a wave motion is referred to as the wavelength () of light. 2. Frequency (f) - The frequency of a repeated event is the number of instances per unit of time. Frequency in the context of light is the number of wavelength repetitions per second.
