In physics, circular motion is a movement of an object along the circumference of a circle or rotation along a circular path. It can be uniform, with constant angular rate of rotation and constant speed, or non-uniform with a changing rate of rotation. Since the object's velocity vector is constantly changing direction, the moving object is undergoing acceleration by a centripetal force in the direction of the center of rotation. Without this acceleration, the object would move in a straight line.
In this sense, the acceleration is always changing due to centripetal acceleration.
Answer:
A. Acceleration
Answer:
the terminal velocity of 14 nested coffee filters is 3.2 m/s
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
we know that;
The terminal velocity is proportional to the square root of weight.
v ∝ √W
v = k√W
the proportionality constant depends upon the surface area and the density of the medium (like air). The coffee filters can be stacked such that the resulting area is roughly unchanged. So, the constant of proportionality k is also unchanged
v/√W = constant
v₂/√W₂ = v₁/√W₁
v₂ = v₁√(W₂ / W₁ )
given that;
v₁ = 0.856 m/s,
W₂ = 14W₁; meaning 14 coffee filters have 14 times the weight of a single coffee filter
so we substitute
v₂ = 0.856 √(14W₁ / W₁ )
v₂ = 0.856 √( 14( W₁/W₁)
v₂ = 0.856 √( 14(1)
v₂ = 0.856 √( 14 )
v₂ = 0.856 × 3.741657
v₂ = 3.2 m/s
Therefore, the terminal velocity of 14 nested coffee filters is 3.2 m/s
The elastic potential energy (Ep) is given by

Data:
Ep = ? (Joule)
k = 20 N/m
x (displacement) = 0.20 m
