if the velocity of a car is halved the fc required to keeo it in a path of constant radius is multiplied/divided by?

I believe this is it
The centripetal force is given by
F = mv^2 / r
When v' = v/2,
F' = mv'^2/r = m(v/2)^2/r = mv^2/4r = F/4.
So the centripetal force is divided by 4.

It should be the 4... so the answer is 4...

The frequency produced by the string could be 437 Hz or it could be 443 Hz.

The frequency of the beats ... 3 Hz ... tells the piano tuner that
the difference between the fork and string frequencies is 3 Hz,
but it doesn't tell her which one is higher or lower.

A bullet with mass 1.0kg and velocity 180 m/s is brought to rest in 0.02 s by a sandbag.assuming constant acceleration in the sa

kotykmax [81]

Hello
The bullet is moving by uniformly accelerated motion.
The initial velocity is $v_i=180~m/s$ , the final velocity is $v_i=0~m/s$ , and the total time of the motion is $\Delta t=0.02~s$ , so the acceleration is given by
$a= \frac{v_f-v_i}{\Delta t} = -9000~m/s^2$
where the negative sign means that is a deceleration.
Therefore we can calculate the total distance covered by the bullet in its motion using
$S=v_i t + \frac{1}{2}at^2 = 180~m/s \cdot 0.02~s + \frac{1}{2}(-9000~m/s^2)(0.02~s)^2=1.8~m$
So, the bullet penetrates the sandbag 1.8 meters.

The escape speed from an object is v2 = 2GM/R, where M is the mass of the object, R is the object's starting radius, and G is th

Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

Approximate escape speed = 45.3 km/s

Explanation:

Escape speed

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}$

Here we have

Gravitational constant = G = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³ kg⁻¹ s⁻²

R = 1 AU = 1.496 × 10¹¹ m

M = 2.3 × 10³⁰ kg

Substituting

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 2.3\times 10^{30}}{1.496\times 10^{11}}}=4.53\times 10^4m/s=45.3km/s$

Approximate escape speed = 45.3 km/s

State Pascal's principle of transmission of pressure

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

Pascal's law (also Pascal's principle or the principle of transmission of fluid-pressure) is a principle in fluid mechanics given by Blaise Pascal that states that a pressure change at any point in a confined incompressible fluid is transmitted throughout the fluid such that the same change occurs everywhere.

Which landform is produced at location E where the Mississippi River enters the Gulf of

mixer [17]

Answer:

a delta

Explanation:

The landform produced at the location E where the Mississippi River enters the Gulf of Mexico is a delta.

A delta is a depositional landform where a smaller body of water enters into a larger one.

The Gulf of Mexico contains a larger body of water and as the Mississippi river enters into it, it splits up into many distributaries.

So, this feature is a delta.
