At an amusement park there is a ride in which cylindrically shaped chambers spin around a central axis. People sit in seats faci

ng the axis, their backs against the outer wall. At one instant the outer wall moves at a speed of 2.72 m/s, and an 75.1-kg person feels a 235-N force pressing against his back. What is the radius of a chamber?

Answer:

The radius of a chamber is 2.36 meters.

Explanation:

Given that,

The outer wall moves at a speed of 2.72 m/s.

Mass of the person, m = 75.1 kg

The person feels a force of 235 N force pressing against his back. The force acting on the person is centripetal force. It is given by the below formula :

F=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

r is the radius of a chamber

r=\dfrac{mv^2}{F}

r=\dfrac{75.1\times (2.72)^2}{235}

r = 2.36 meters

So, the radius of a chamber is 2.36 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

How did foucaults pendulum and coriolis effect are used to demonstrate earths tilt?
HACTEHA [7]
They do not demonstrate Earth's tilt. In fact, they're not "used" to demonstrate anything. It works the other way:. When you observe the Coriolis effect and the behavior of the Foucault pendulum, and you try to explain why the behave the way they do, one possible simple explanation for both of them is the Earth's ROTATION. Then, when you also observe the rising and setting of the sun and moon, and you also notice how the NUMBERS all go together, the case for the rotating, spherical Earth gets stronger and stronger.

A parallel-plate air capacitor is made from two plates 0.190 m square, spaced 0.770 cm apart. It is connected to a 120 V battery
Naddik [55]

Answer:

aaksj

Explanation:

a) the capacitance is given of a plate capacitor is given by:

C = \epsilon_0*(A/d)

Where \epsilon_0 is a constant that represents the insulator between the plates (in this case air, \epsilon_0 = 8.84*10^(-12) F/m), A is the plate's area and d is the distance between the plates. So we have:

The plates are squares so their area is given by:

A = L^2 = 0.19^2 = 0.0361 m^2

C = 8.84*10^(-12)*(0.0361/0.0077) = 8.84*10^(-12) * 4.6883 = 41.444*10^(-12) F

b) The charge on the plates is given by the product of the capacitance by the voltage applied to it:

Q = C*V = 41.444*10^(-12)*120 = 4973.361 * 10^(-12) C = 4.973 * 10^(-9) C

c) The electric field on a capacitor is given by:

E = Q/(A*\epsilon_0) = [4.973*10^(-9)]/[0.0361*8.84*10^(-12)]

E = [4.973*10^(-9)]/[0.3191*10^(-12)] = 15.58*10^(3) V/m

d) The energy stored on the capacitor is given by:

W = 0.5*(C*V^2) = 0.5*[41.444*10^(-12) * (120)^2] = 298396.8*10^(-12) = 0.298 * 10 ^6 J

The graph below represents changes in water. What process is occurring during section “B” of the graph?
Fittoniya [83]

Melting

we know that ice melts at 0 ⁰C. in the graph, at position B, the temperature is constant, which indicates that phase change is taking place there. at B , from the graph , we also notice that the temperature is constant at value 0 ⁰C. this indicates that ice at 0 ⁰C is converting to water at 0 ⁰C there at position B in the graph.

hence the correct choice is   Melting.
