If an object travels at a constant speed in a circular path, the acceleration of the object is:

Physics
1 answer:
Vilka [71]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

1- The acceleration of the object is larger in magnitude the smaller the radius of the circle.

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object in a circular path is

a = \frac{v^2}{r}

As can be seen from the equation, if the radius of the circle is decreases, the magnitude of the acceleration increases.

As for the direction of the acceleration, it is always towards the center, and it is always perpendicular to the direction of the velocity.

Europe and North America are moving apart by about 5 m per century. As the continents separate, new ocean floor is created along
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Area = 25km² in a century.

Explanation:

Given

Spread Rate = 5m/century

Length of rift = 5000km

Convert to metres

Length of rift = 5000 * 1000m

Length of rift = 5,000,000m

In one century, the additional area to Atlantis = (Rift Length) * (Spread rate) * 1 century

Atea = 5,000,000 m * 5m/century * 1 century

Area = 25,000,000m² in a century

----- Convert to km²

Area = 25,000,000km² * 1m²/1,000,000km²

Area = 25km² in a century.

Hence, the total area of new ocean floor created in the Atlantic each century is 25km²

A 4.6 g lead bullet moving at 278 m/s strikes a steel plate and stops. If all its kinetic energy is converted to thermal energy
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

ΔT = 302 °c

Explanation:

mass (m) = 4.6 g = 0.0046 kg

velocity (v) = 278 m/s

specific heat of lead (c) = 128 J/kg. °c

kinetic energy = 0.5 mx v^{2}

kinetic energy = 0.5 x 0.0046 x 278^{2}

kinetic energy = 177.8 J

since all the kinetic energy is converted to thermal energy,

kinetic energy = thermal energy (E) = 177.8 J

thermal energy = m x c x ΔT

where ΔT is the temperature change

177.8 = 0.0046 x 128 x ΔT

ΔT = 177.8 / 0.59

ΔT = 302 °c

When you mix two gases what can you predict about the conservation of volume in this case?
o-na [289]
Amagat's law of additive volumes states that we can simply add up the individual volumes of each gas (provided they are at the same temperature and pressure) to get the total volume of the mixture. Conservation of volume is an acceptable assumption for gases (but not always for liquid mixtures). This works for gases since the molecules are very small and only take up a minimal amount of space in a gas.

A spinning top initially spins at 16rad/s but slows down to 12rad/s in 18s, due to friction. If the rotational inertia of the to
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

The  change  in angular momentum is \Delta  L  = 0.0016 \ kgm^2/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

      The initial angular velocity of the spinning top is  w_1  =  16 \ rad/s

      The angular velocity after it slow down is  w_2 =  12 \ rad/s

      The time  for it to slow down is  t =  18 \ s

       The rotational inertia due to friction is  I =  0.0004 \ kg \cdot m^2

 Generally the change in the angular momentum is  mathematically represented as  

         \Delta  L  =  I  *(w_1 -w_2)

substituting values  

        \Delta  L  =  0.0004  *(16 -12)

       \Delta  L  = 0.0016 \ kgm^2/s
