A car with a mass of 2000 kg is moving around a circular curve at a uniform velocity of 25 m/s per second. The curve has a radiu

IrinaK [193]

The centripetal force is:
F = mv² / R
Where:
m: mass of the object
v: object speed
R: radius of the curve.
We have to:
m = 2000kg
v = 25 m / s
R = 80 meters.
Then the centripetal force acting on the vehicle is:
F = (2000kg * (25m / s) ²) / 80m
F = 15625 N

A gray kangaroo can bound across level ground with each jump carrying it 9.1 m from the takeoff point. Typically the kangaroo le

Alona [7]

Answer:

u = 10.63 m/s

h = 1.10 m

Explanation:

For Take-off speed ..

by using the standard range equation we have

$R = u² sin2θ/g$

R = 9.1 m

θ = 26º,

Initial velocity = u

solving for u

$u² = \frac{Rg}{sin2\theta}$

$u^2 = \frac{9.1 x 9.80}{sin26}$

$u^2 = 113.17$

u = 10.63 m/s

for Max height

using the standard h(max) equation ..

$v^2 = (v_osin\theta)^2 -2gh$

$h =\frac{(v_o^2sin\theta)^2}{2g}$

$h = \frac{(113.17)(sin26)^2}{(2 x 9.80)}}$

h = 1.10 m

A 12-kg piece of metal displaces 1.6 L of water when submerged. Part A Find its density. Express your answer to two significant

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

ρ = 7500 kg/m³

Explanation:

Given that

mass ,m = 12 kg

Displace volume ,V= 1.6 L

We know that

1000 m ³ = 1 L

Therefore V= 0.0016 m ³

When metal piece is fully submerged

We know that

mass = Density x volume

$m=\rho \times V$

Now by putting the values in the above equation

$\rho=\dfrac{12}{0.0016}\ kg/m^3$

ρ = 7500 kg/m³

Therefore the density of the metal piece will be 7500 kg/m³.

What type of motion does the galaxy go through

Mariana [72]

Well, it depends. Your latitude on Earth--that is, how close you are to the equator--and the time of year make a difference. I'll explain why. Your motion is made up of four pieces: the rotation of the Earth on its axis, the motion of the Earth around the Sun, the Sun's orbit about the center of the galaxy, and the motion of the whole galaxy.
