Answer:

Explanation:

Given a ball of mass m= 0.5kg

The ball moves in as circle of radius r= 0.4m

Speed of the ball is v = 4m/s

Centripetal force is exerted on ball and it is given as

Fc = m•ac

ac is centripetal acceleration and it is given as

ac = v²/r

Then,

Fc = mv²/r

Fc = 0.5 × 4²/0.4

Fc = 20N.

The force exerted on the ball is 20N

To calculate the change in kinetic energy, you must know the force as a function of _______. The work done by the force causes t

QveST [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the work-energy theorem, the workdone by a force on a body causes a change in kinetic energy of the body.

But, remember that the work done (W) by a force (F) on a body is the product of the force and the distance d, moved by the body caused by the force. i.e

W = F x d

This distance is a measure of the position of the body at a given instance.

Therefore, the work done is given by the force as a function of distance (or position).

Water ice has a density of 0.91 g/cm2, so it will float in liquid water. Imagine you have a cube of ice, 10 cm on a side. a. Wha

Reptile [31]

Answer:

(i) W = 8.918 N

(ii) $V = 9.1 \times 10^{-4} m^3$

(iii) d = 9.1 cm

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that weight of cube is given as

$W = mg$

$W = \rho V g$

here we know that

$\rho = 0.91 g/cm^3$

$Volume = L^3$

$Volume = 10^3 = 1000 cm^3$

now the mass of the ice cube is given as

$m = 0.91 \times 1000 = 910 g$

now weight is given as

$W = 0.910 \times 9.8 = 8.918 N$

Part b)

Weight of the liquid displaced must be equal to weight of the ice cube

Because as we know that force of buoyancy = weight of the of the liquid displaced

$W_{displaced} = 8.918 N$

So here volume displaced is given as

$\rho_{water}Vg = 8.918$

$1000(V)9.8 = 8.918$

$V = 9.1 \times 10^{-4} m^3$

Part c)

Let the cube is submerged by distance "d" inside water

So here displaced water weight is given as

$W = \rho_{water} (L^2 d) g$

$8.918 = 1000(0.10^2 \times d) 9.8$

$d = 0.091 m$

so it is submerged by d = 9.1 cm inside water

What is a homopolar motor?????)

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

A homopolar motor is a direct current electric motor with two magnetic poles, the conductors of which always cut unidirectional lines of magnetic flux by rotating a conductor around a fixed axis so that the conductor is at right angles to a static magnetic field.
