What is centripetal force

Physics
1 answer:
KonstantinChe [14]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Centripetal force is defined as, "the force that is necessary to keep an object moving in a curved path and that is directed inward toward the center of rotation.

Explanation:

Just a few examples are the tension in the rope on a tether ball, the force of Earth's gravity on the Moon, friction between roller skates and a rink floor, a banked roadway's force on a car, and forces on the tube of a spinning centrifuge. Any net force causing uniform circular motion is called a centripetal force.

A 2kg mass is moving at 3m/s. What is its kinetic energy?
Illusion [34]
<h2><u>KINETIC ENERGY</u></h2>

<h3>Problem:</h3>

» A 2kg mass is moving at 3m/s. What is its kinetic energy?

<h3>Answer:</h3>
  • \color{hotpink} \bold{9 \: J} \\

— — — — — — — — — —

<h3>Formula:</h3>

To calculate the velocity of a kinetic energy, we can use formula

  • \underline{ \boxed{  \tt KE =  \frac{1}{2} m{v}^{2}  } }

where,

  • v is the velocity in m/s
  • KE is the kinetic energy in J (joules)
  • m is the mass in kg

— — —

Based on the problem, the givens are:

  • KE (Kinetic energy) = ? (unknown)
  • m (mass) = 2 kg
  • v (velocity) = 3 m/s

<h3>Solution:</h3>

To get the velocity, substitute the givens in the formula above then solve.

\:   \: \tt KE =  \frac{1}{2} m{v}^{2}   \\ \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:   \: \tt \:   KE =  \frac{1}{2} \times  2 \times {(3)}^{2}  \\ \tt  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  KE =  \frac{1}{2}  \times(2\times 9) \\ \tt  KE =  \underline{ \boxed{ \blue{ \tt9 \: J}}}

Therefore, the kinetic energy is 9 Joules.

saad has mass 80kg when resting on the ground at the equator what will be the centripetal acceleration on saad if the radius of
Sidana [21]
Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. Below is the answer:

m = 80 kg
R = 6.4 x 10^6 m
Earth completes one rotation in 24 hours
Thus, T = 24 x 3600 s
Centripetral acceleration is given by 
ac = w^2R 
ac = (2 pie/T)^2R
ac = (2 pie/T)^2R = 4 pie^2/(24 x 3600)^2 x 6.4 x 10^6
ac = 0.034 m/s^2

What is the enthalpy change, ΔH, for this reaction? Show your work.
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

B) What is the enthalpy change, ∆H, for this reaction? Show your work to receive full credit (5 points) The enthalpy change is 150. To find it we must subtract energy of products (200) & the energy of reactants (50) so 200 – 50 equals 150.

The four terrestrial planets are so called because they ?
velikii [3]
Well, you need no look further than the word "terrestrial" If you notice the beginning of the word you notice that it consists mostly of the word "terra" Terra by definition is just land. Due to the solid land of these 4 planets, they're called terrestrial planets, the other 4 aren't made of land but of gas which is why they aren't classified as terrestrial planets.
