Acceleration toward the center of a curved path is called

Physics
1 answer:
Serggg [28]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Centripetal acceleration.

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration is a property of a body moving in a uniform circular path and it is directed radially towards the center of the circle in which body is rotating.

The force which causes this acceleration is centripetal force which is also directed towards the center of the circle and pulls the body towards its center.

It is calculated through following formula

a=v^2/r

where v is velocity and r is the radius of the circle.

There is a 3-kg toy cart moving at 4 m/s. Calculate the kinetic<br> energy of the cart.
m_a_m_a [10]

The kinetic energy of the cart is 24 J.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The acceleration of a given mass from rest to the velocity is known as kinetic energy. It gains energy from acceleration and remains in this state until the speed of the object changes.  

The kinetic energy is the given by,

                           K.E = 1/2 mv^2

Given the mass m = 3 kg,        v = 4 m / s.

                            K.E = 1/2 \times 3 \times (4)^2          

                          K.E  = 24 J.

HELP ASAP!!! Some bands hate playing in school gyms because sound waves easily reflect off the walls and floor. What could you d
jonny [76]

Answer:

1.) Covering the ceiling and walls with soft perforated boards

2.) Hanging curtains round the hall

3.) Having more opening in the wall.

Explanation:

This is due to what we called Reverberation due to poor acoustic properties.

Reverberation can be reduced by;

1.) Covering the ceiling and walls with soft perforated boards

2.) Hanging curtains round the hall

3.) Having more opening in the wall.

What is the significance of the direction of an electric field line at some point on the line?
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer with Explanation:

The direction of the electric field line at any point gives us the direction of the electric force that will act on a positive charge if placed at the point. We know that if we place a charge in an electric field it will experience a force, as we know that force is a vector quantity hence it requires both magnitude and direction for it's complete description. The direction of this electric force that acts on a charge is given by the direction of the electric field in the space. In case the charge is negatively charged electric force will act on it in the direction opposite to the direction of electric field at the point.

if a car engine does 600,000 J of work over a 500m distance and the mass of the car is 250Kg then what is the final velocity of
drek231 [11]

Given that

Work = 600,000 J ,

distance(S) = 500 m ,

mass (m) = 250 Kg ,

Determine the velocity of car (v) = ?

                 We know that,

                                Work = Force × distance

                               => Force = Work ÷ distance

                                              = 600,000 ÷ 500

                                              = 500 N .

                   Also Force F =  m.a  ; from Newtons II law

                                      500 = 250 × a  

                                             a = 2 m/s.

<em>Final Velocity from the given  formula </em>

                                     V² = u² + 2.a.s

                                         = 0 + 2 × 2 × 500

                                         = \sqrt{2000}

                                    <em>   v = 44.7 m/s</em>
