On an amusement park ride, riders stand inside a cylinder of radius 8.0 m. At first the cylinder rotates horizontally. Then afte

r the cylinder has acquired sufficient speed, it tilts into a vertical plane, as shown in the diagram. At top speed, the cylinder rotates once every 4.5 s.
The mass of one rider is 71 kg. When the rider is at the highest point and traveling at the top speed, with how much force is the rider pushed against the wall of the cylinder?

700 N

1800 N

410 N

1100 N

Answer:

410 N

Explanation:

At the highest point, there are two forces pushing the man towards the centre of the cylinder: the normal reaction (N) and his weight (W=mg). The sum of these two forces must be equal to the centripetal force. So we have

N+mg=m\omega^2 r (1)

where

m = 71 kg is the mass of the rider

g = 9.8 m/s^2

r = 8.0 m is the radius of the cylinder

\omega is the angular frequency

The cylinder rotates once every 4.5 s (period), so its angular frequency is

\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}=\frac{2\pi}{4.5 s}=1.40 rad/s

So by solving eq.(1) for N, we find the force with which the wall pushes the rider:

N=m\omega^2 r-mg=(71 kg)(1.40 rad/s)^2(8.0m)-(71.0kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=417.5 N \sim 410 N

Temperature is a measure of the energy of molecules and energy is related to speed.

<span>A high pH is indicative of a basic solution. HCl and H2SO4 are both strong acids and will result in a lower (more acidic) pH. Water is the standard. KOH is a strong base and will increase the pH. </span>

<span>An acidic solid will lower the pH of a solution. pH measures the number of hydrogen ions and a lower pH will mean that there are more H+ ions, but the solid could just have reacted with the OH- to cause the pH to decrease</span>

The main difference between a chest and a bounce pass is what?
snow_lady [41]

Answer: The main difference between the three is the mode of transmission. The chest pass is straight through the air towards your teammate. While the bounce pass is directed toward the ground and then at your teammate. Finally, the overhead pass is projected high in the air to avoid defenders.

What makes psychoanalysis different from behaviorism?
svp [43]
Psychoanalysis is a form of therapy that treats mental disorders through different ways, such as dream interpretation. It is a way of looking into the line between conscious and <span>unconsciousness </span>

Behaviorism is a theory that says that mental disorders are treated better with altering the persons behavior patterns.

I think they're different because behaviorism is just simply a theory and not actually a form of therapy.

Hopefully that helps you tell them apart!

A two slit pattern is viewed on a screen 1.00m from the slits if the two third-order minima are 22.0 cm apart what is the width
Bingel [31]

Answer:

4.4 cm

Explanation:

Given:

Distance of the screen from the slit, D = 1 m

Distance between two third order interference minimas, x = 22 cm

Let's say, minima occurs at:

x_n = (n + \frac{1}{2}) \frac{wL}{d}

We have:

2x_2 = 2(2 + \frac{1}{2}) * \frac{w*22}{d}

Calculating further for the width of the central bright fringe, we have:

\frac{w}{d} = \frac{22}{5}

= 4.4 cm

Note: w in representswavelength

If Anya decides to make the star twice as massive, and not change the length of any crossbar or the location of any object, what
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

She will make the mass of the smiley face twice as massive in order to keep the mobile in perfect balance.

Explanation:

mass of an object is directly proportional to the cube of its length. In this case the length is constant, the mass will also be constant for the smiley face, so that the mobile will be kept in perfect balance.

Therefore, If Anya decides to make the star twice as massive, and not change the length of any crossbar or the location of any object, she will make the mass of the smiley face twice as massive in order to keep the mobile in perfect balance.
