Answer:

Acceleration will 7.5 times g = 7.5 g

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration is given by a = v²/r.

The speed in m/s will be; (96.6 Km/h )÷ 3.6

                                        = 26.83 m/s.

Centripetal force = v²/r

                            = 26.83²/9.80

                            = 73.454 m/s²

But; g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore the acceleration in terms of g will be;

  = 73.454/9.8

   = 7.5 g

Acceleration is 7.5 g

You paddle a conoe with a force of 325 N. You and the canoe have a combined mass of 250 kg. What is the acceleration of the cano
Brums [2.3K]

f = ma

Rearranging it, we get;

a =  \frac{f}{m}
Where a is the acceleration, f is the force, and m is the mass

a =  \frac{325}{250}
a = 1.3 \frac{m}{ {s}^{2} }

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Then the difference of weight between the two cars are:

Δw = 14210 - 5292 = 8918 N

Explanation:

An object's weigh due to the gravitational attraction force of the earth is:

w = mg

            Where: m is the object's mass

                         g is the  gravitational acceleration in the surface earth

                         g = 9.8 m/s2

The the ultralight car's weight is:

w_{uc} = (540)(9.8)

w_{uc} = 5292 N

And the Honda Accord's weight is:

w_{HA} = (1450)(9.8)

w_{HA} = 14210 N

Then the difference of weight between the two cars are:

Δw = 14210 - 5292 = 8918 N

A piece of driftwood moves up and down as water waves pass beneath it. However, it does not move toward the shore with the waves
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

It's A

Explanation:

As the waves progress through the medium, the particles they are made of move perpendicular to the direction in which the waves move. The particles do not move with the wave. So waves transmit energy but not matter as they progress through a medium.

A simple pendulum of length of 1.37 m and mass of 6.66 kg is given an initial speed of 2.85 m/s at its equilibrium position. Det
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

2.35 s

Explanation:

The period of a simple pendulum is expressed as;

                                T = 2π\sqrt{\frac{L}{g} }

Where

T is the period in seconds

L is the length in metres

g is acceleration due to gravity

                                 T = 2π\sqrt{\frac{1.37}{9.8}}

                                 T = 2.349 s

                                 T = 2.35 s
