In short-track speed skating, the track has straight sections and semicircles 16 m in diameter. assume that a 64 kg skater goes

around the turn at a constant 13 m/s. what is the horizontal force on the skater?

The diameter of the semicircular portion of the track is 16 m.
Therefore its radius is
r = 8 m.

The tangential velocity of the skater is 13 m/s.
Therefore the angular speed is
ω = v/r = (13 m/s)/(8 m) = 1.625 rad/s

The horizontal force on the skater is due to centripetal acceleration of
a = r*ω² = (8 m)*(1.625 rad/s)² = 21.125 m/s².

The force acting on the 64-kg skater is
F = m*a = (64 kg)*(21.125 m/s²) = 1352 N

Answer: 1352 N

An atom with an imbalance of electrons to protons is
alexdok [17]
<h2>Answer: Ion </h2>

An ion is an atom that is electrically charged by <u>gaining or losing one or more electrons. </u>

To understand it better:

An atom has a nucleus with electrons around it and has a neutral charge. When an electron is added or detached, this atom is electrically charged, that is, it ceases to have a neutral charge and becomes an <u>ion</u>.

In this sense, there are two types of ions:

-Anions: ions negatively charged, by the gain of electrons in the atom.

-Cations: ions positively charged, by the loss of electrons in the atom.

A cart starts from rest and accelerates at 4.0 m/s2 for 5.0 s, then maintains that velocity for 10 s, and then decelerates at th
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

Final speed of car = 12 m/s

Explanation:

We have equation of motion v = u + at, where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and t is time.

a) A cart starts from rest and accelerates at 4.0 m/s² for 5.0 s

        v = ?

        u = 0 m/s

        a = 4.0 m/s²

         t = 5 s

         v = u + at = 0 + 4 x 5 = 20 m/s

b) Then maintains that velocity for 10 s

        v = ?

        u = 20 m/s

        a = 0 m/s²

         t = 10 s

         v = u + at = 20 + 0 x 10 = 20 m/s

c) Then decelerates at the rate of 2.0 m/s² for 4.0 s

        v = ?

        u = 20 m/s

        a = -2.0 m/s²

         t = 4 s

         v = u + at = 20 + -2 x 4 = 12 m/s

Final speed of car = 12 m/s

What is the difference between error and uncertainty?
Andrej [43]
Error is the difference between the true value of the measurand and the measured value.. Uncertainty characterizes the range of values within which the true value is asserted to lie with some level of confidence.

If that doesn’t help here’s the definition of both the terms,

Error:

A mistake

Uncertainty:

the state of being uncertain.
