Answer:

a) 1.94 \frac{rad}{s}

b) 9.12\frac{m}{s}

c) Towards the center of the centrifuge

Explanation:

a)

Becuse the centrifuge rotates in circular motion, there's an angular acceleration tha simulates high gravity accelerations

a_{rad}=\omega r^{2}

with r the radius and ω the amgular velocity, in or case a_rad=3.5g so:

3.5g=\omega r^{2} and g=9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}

solving for ω:

\omega=\frac{3.5g}{r^2}=\frac{3.5*9.8}{4.2^2}

\omega = 1.94 \frac{rad}{s}

b) Linear speed (v) and angular speed are related by:

v=\omega r =(1.94)(4.7)

v= 9.12\frac{m}{s}

c) The apparent weigth is pointing towards the center of the circle, becuse angular acceleration is pointing in that direction.

A force of 45 newtons is applied on an object, moving it 12 meters away in the same direction as the force. What is the magnitud
klio [65]

If the applied force is in the same direction as the object's displacement, the work done on the object is:

W = Fd

W = work, F = force, d = displacement

Given values:

F = 45N

d = 12m

Plug in and solve for W:

W = 45(12)

W = 540J

When making a turn, do not have the steering wheel turned in the direction of the turn before beginning the turning maneuver.a)
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

a) True.

Explanation:

If you turn the wheel in the direction of the turn before beginning the turning maneuver then it's possible that there might be not enough space available for turning and also if you are waiting for the traffic to get clear with rear  ended then it will get pushed forward onto the coming traffic.
