Racing greyhounds are capable of rounding corners at very high speeds. A typical greyhound track has turns that are 45 m diamete

r semicircles. A greyhound can run around these turns at a constant speed of 16 m/s .What is its acceleration in m/s^2?What is its acceleration in units of g?

Answer:

In m/s^2:

a=11.3778 m/s^2

In units of g:

a=1.161 g

Explanation:

Since the racing greyhounds are capable of rounding corners at very high speed so we are going use the following formula of acceleration for circular paths.

a=\frac{v^2}{r}

where:

v is the speed

r is the radius

Now,

a=\frac{16^2}{45/2}\\ a=11.3778 m/s^2

In g units:

a=\frac{11.3778\ g}{9.8}\\ a=1.161\ g

Are the two displacements equal? Explain your answer.
Sergeu [11.5K]
From the information given in the drawing, it's not possible
to tell whether the displacements are equal, because we
don't know what the vectors represent.

If the vectors are distances, then the displacements are not
equal, because the distance between the start and end points
are not equal.

If the vectors are speeds, then they don't tell us anything about
the distance between the start and end points, so we can't calculate
the displacements.

A negatively charged particle is moving to the right, directly above a wire have a current flowing to the right. In which direct
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

C) upward

Explanation:

The problem can be solved by using the right-hand rule.

First of all, we notice at the location of the negatively charged particle (above the wire), the magnetic field produced by the wire points out of the page (because the current is to the right, so by using the right hand, putting the thumb to the right (as the current) and wrapping the other fingers around it, we see that the direction of the field above the wire is out of the page).

Now we can apply the right hand rule to the charged particle:

- index finger: velocity of the particle, to the right

- middle finger: direction of the magnetic field, out of the page

- thumb: direction of the force, downward --> however, the charge is negative, so we must reverse the direction --> upward

Therefore, the direction of  the magnetic force is upward.

A small sphere with mass m is attached to a massless rod of length L that is pivoted at the top, forming a simple pendulum. The
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

a) see attached, a = g sin θ

b)

c)   v = √(2gL (1-cos θ))

Explanation:

In the attached we can see the forces on the sphere, which are the attention of the bar that is perpendicular to the movement and the weight of the sphere that is vertical at all times. To solve this problem, a reference system is created with one axis parallel to the bar and the other perpendicular to the rod, the weight of decomposing in this reference system and the linear acceleration is given by

          Wₓ = m a

          W sin θ = m a

          a = g sin θ

b) The diagram is the same, the only thing that changes is the angle that is less

                θ' = 9/2  θ

             

c) At this point the weight and the force of the bar are in the same line of action, so that at linear acceleration it is zero, even when the pendulum has velocity v, so it follows its path.

The easiest way to find linear speed is to use conservation of energy

Highest point

            Em₀ = mg h = mg L (1-cos tea)

Lowest point

          Emf = K = ½ m v²

          Em₀ = Emf

          g L (1-cos θ) = v² / 2

              v = √(2gL (1-cos θ))
