Josh has a toy car of mass 3 kg tied to a string of length 2 m. He ties the string to a pole and has the toy car drive in a circ

le around the pole at a speed of 3 m/s.
a. What is the centripetal acceleration of the car?

b. If the tension in the string exceeds 50 N, the string will break. How fast can he make the car go without breaking the string?

Part a)

Centripetal acceleration is defined as

a_c = \frac{v^2}{R}

now here we know that

v = 3m/s

R = 2 m

m = 3 kg

now from above formula we have

a_c = \frac{3^2}{2}

a_c = 4.5 m/s^2

Part b)

Maximum possible tension in the string is given as

T = 50 N

now by force equation we have

F = ma

50 = 3 a

a = \frac{50}{3} m/s^2

now again by above formula

\frac{v^2}{R} = \frac{50}{3}

v = \sqrt{\frac{50 \times 2}{3}}

v = 5.77 m/s

a) a=v^2/R=4.5 m/s/s

b) F=ma=mv^2/R, so

v=\sqrt{FR/m}=5.77 m/s

The de Broglie wave is produced only by sub atomic particle and photon. O True O False
Alina [70]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Matter can be in the form of a particle or a wave. This is known as the dual nature of matter. This concept was proposed by Louis de Broglie and was named after him. This phenomenon has been observed for all the elementary particles.

The de Broglie wavelength is given by

\lambda=\frac{h}{p}=\frac{h}{mv}

Where

h = Planck's constant

p = Particles momentum

m = Mass of particle

v = Velocity of particle

Help ASAP PLEASE.............:3​
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

temperature measures heat - the unit is Celsius - and it is measured with a thermometer.

length is measuring how long, tall, or wide something is  - the base unit it metres - and it is measured with a ruler or a metre stick

volume is measuring the quantity of a three dimensional space - the unit is cubic centimetre - you find volume by taking the measurements with a ruler

mass is measuring how much space something takes up/ weight - unit is the gram - you use a scale
