How to find the velocity of an object in a circular path?

Physics
2 answers:
Savatey [412]3 years ago
8 0
Distance of an object in a circular path is equal to the circumference of the circular path, so the formula to find speed is -

 Speed = \frac{2 \pi r}{Time}
Speed is there because velocity keeps changing continuously, because of the change of direction.

First of all, let's just talk about the speed, and not get wound up
in the velocity. OK ?

If a fly is sitting on the rim of the wheel and the wheel is rotating, then for
each full revolution of the wheel, the fly travels the circumference of the
wheel, which is (2 π) x (radius of the wheel).

In 'N' revolutions, the fly travels (2 N π) x (the radius). and so on.

So if the wheel is going, let's say 71 revs per minute (RPM), a point
on the rim is moving at (2 π times 71) x (the radius) per minute.

Another way to say it:

Speed of a point on the circle = (2 π) x (rotation frequency) x (radius).

The 'rotation frequency' takes care of the unit of time, and the 'radius'
takes care of the unit of length, so the result is a speed.

What is the difference between the spectrum of an incandescent solid and the spectrum of an incandescent gas?
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

ncandescent solids emit continuous spectra; incandescent gases emit bright-line spectra.

Explanation:

Materials when heated emit a continuous spectrum with all wavelengths.

Hot gas gases emit a spectrum that depends on the transitions between atomic states, therefore it is a discrete spectrum.

When reviewing the answers, the correct one is:

ncandescent solids emit continuous spectra; incandescent gases emit bright-line spectra.

How much water is stored in polar ice caps glaciers and permanent snow
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

1.7% is stored in the polar icecaps, glaciers, and permanent snow

Explanation:

70% of the Earth's surface is covered with water; However, only a small percentage, 0.025%, is suitable for human consumption. A limited resource whose demand, according to the forecasts of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), will skyrocket up to 55% globally between 2000 and 2050.

In the attached infographic we observe that the total volume of water on Earth is 1,386 million cubic kilometers, of which<em> </em><u>1.7% is forming polar ice, cap glaciers and permanent snow</u>.  1,338 million cubic kilometers of that water is in seas and oceans, that is, 96.5% is in seas and oceans, that is, it is salt water that cannot be drunk.

Only 3.5% of the Earth's water is fresh, but of this percentage, only 1% of the Earth's fresh water flows through the river basins in the form of streams and rivers.

7. A car moving at 10m/s (about 22.4 mph) crashes into a barrier and stops in 0.25 m.
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

a) 0.05s

b) 4000N

Explanation:

a)When car is stopped its final velocity become zero

U- 10 m/s

V- 0 m/s

S - 0.25 m

t -?

S = (v+u)*t/2

0.25 =(10+0)*t/2

t = 0.05s

b) If we happened to calculate the avarage force we have to consider about acceleration

V= 0

U = 10

t = 0.05 s

a =?

V = U + at

0 = 10 -a * 0.05

a = 200 m/s2

F = m *a

= 20 * 200

= 4000N
