describe the relationship between the direction of the velocity vector and the direction of the acceleration for a body moving i
Xelga [282]

Answer:

a = v²/r

Explanation:

The acceleration of a body moving in a circular path is known as the centripetal acceleration. This is the acceleration of a body that keeps the body within the circular path. It is written in terms of the linear velocity v and the radius of the circle of rotation as shown;

a = v²/r where

v is the linear velocity

r is the radius

a is the centripetal acceleration

Does the mass of a pendulum affects the period of oscillation
pshichka [43]
Mass does not affect the pendulum's swing. The longer the length of string, the farther the pendulum falls; and therefore, the longer the period, or back and forth swing of the pendulum. The greater the amplitude, or angle, the farther the pendulum falls; and therefore, the longer the period.

A student wearing a frictionless roller skates on a horizontal is pushed by a friend with a constant force of 55N. How far must
umka21 [38]

Answer:

6.58m

Explanation:

The kinetic energy = Workdone on the roller

Workdone = Force * distance

Given

KE = Workdone = 362J

Force = 55N

Required

Distance

Substitute into the formula;

Workdone = Force * distance

362 = 55d

d = 362/55

d = 6.58m

Hence the student must push at a distance of 6.58m
