Answer:

0.89 N

Explanation:

Centripetal force is mass time centripetal acceleration.

F = ma

F = m v² / r

Given m = 0.18 kg, v = 15 km/h = 4.17 m/s, and r = 3.5 m:

F = (0.18 kg) (4.17 m/s)² / (3.5 m)

F = 0.89 N

An uncrewed mission to the nearest star, Proxima Centauri, is launched from the Earth's surface as a projectile with an initial

Anna [14]

Answer:

42.96 km/s

Explanation:

From the conservation of Energy

$(PE+KE)_i=(PE+KE)_f\\\Rightarrow -\frac{GmM}{R}+\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2=0+\frac{1}{2}mv_f^2$

Mass gets cancelled

$-\frac{GM}{R}+\frac{1}{2}v_i^2=0+\frac{1}{2}v_f^2\\\Rightarrow -2\frac{GM}{R}+v_i^2=v_f^2\\\Rightarrow -v_e^2+v_i^2=v_f^2\\\Rightarrow v_f=\sqrt{v_i^2-v_e^2}$

$v_e=\sqrt{\frac{2Gm}{R}}$ = Escape velocity of Earth = 11.2 km/s

$v_i$ = Velocity of projectile = 44.4 km/s

$v_f=\sqrt{44.4^2-11.2^2}\\\Rightarrow v_f=42.96\ km/s$

The velocity of the spacecraft when it is more than halfway to the star is 42.96 km/s

The "Giant Swing" at a county fair consists of a vertical central shaft with a number of horizontal arms attached at its upper e

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

When the central shaft rotates , the seat along with passenger also rotates . Their rotation requires a centripetal force of mw²R where m is mass of the passenger and w is the angular velocity and R is radius of the circle in which the passenger rotates.

This force is provided by a component of T , the tension in the rope from which the passenger hangs . If θ be the angle the rope makes with horizontal ,

T cos θ will provide the centripetal force . So

Tcosθ = mw²R

Tsinθ component will balance the weight .

Tsinθ = mg

Dividing the two equation

Tanθ = $\frac{g}{\omega^2R}$

Hence for a given w , θ depends upon g or weight .

1. A 1,000-kg car has 50,000 joules of kinetic energy. What is its speed?

bulgar [2K]

Use KE= 1/2mv^2
So...
50,000=(.5)(1,000)v^2
50,000=500 x v^2
Divide 500 on both sides
100 = v^2
Square root both sides to get rid of v^2
Therefore v = 10 m/s
