Why is your velocity continuously changing as you ride on a carousel?

Physics
2 answers:
Finger [1]3 years ago
5 0

Since carousels go in circles, the direction of travel is constantly changing and velocity is defined as constant change. This is the reason why velocity is continuously changing when riding a carousel for velocity is involve in change of direction.

Moreover, a change in velocity is an acceleration and velocity has two properties that comprises direction and magnitude. Whereas the direction of velocity is the direction of travel and speed is the magnitude of velocity.

<span>To make this more obvious (and give it some relevance beyond being just a HW question), imagine that the ride is going super, super, duper fast. You'd better hold on tight or else you'll fly off. There's obviously a force acting on you, then, to keep you on that ride. Therefore, you are accelerating, which means your velocity is changing.</span>

How does the Coriolis effect influence the direction of the Trade Winds in the Northern Hemisphere? Does it have the same effect
scoray [572]

Answer:

Part A

Coriolis effect is used to describe how objects which are not fixed to the ground are deflected as they travel over long distances due to the rotation of the Earth relative to the 'linear' motion of the objects

Due to the Coriolis effect the wind flowing towards the Equator from high pressure belts in the subtropical regions in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres are deflected towards the western direction because the Earth rotates on its axis towards the east

Part B

In the Northern Hemispheres, the winds are known as northeasterly trade winds and in the Southern Hemisphere, they are known as the southeasterly trade wind. Therefore, Coriolis effect has the same effect on the direction of the Trade Winds in the Southern Hemisphere as it does in the Northern Hemisphere

If an object undergoes a change in momentum of 10 kg m/s in 3 s ,then the force acting on it is
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Force = 3.333 Newton

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Change in momentum = 10 Kgm/s

Time = 3 seconds

To find the force acting on it;

In Physics, the change in momentum of a physical object is equal to the impulse experienced by the physical object.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

Force * time = mass * change in velocity

Impulse = force * time

Substituting into the formula, we have;

10 = force * 3

Force = 10/3

Force = 3.333 Newton

Use the equation for magnetic force on a moving charge to derive the equation for magnetic force on a current carrying wire. Sho
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

The formula comes from Lorentz force law which includes both the electric and magnetic field. If the electric field is zero, the force law for just the magnetic field is <u>F=q(ν×B</u>) . Here, F  is force and is a vector because the force acts in a direction.  q  is the charge of the particle.  v  is velocity and is a vector because the particle is moving in some direction.  B is the magnetic flux density.

We can derive an expression for the magnetic force on a current by taking a sum of the magnetic forces on individual charges. (The forces add because they are in the same direction.) The force on an individual charge moving at the drift velocity vd.  Since the magnitude of B is constant at every line element of the loop (circle) and it dot product with the line element is B dl everywhere, therefore

                                                  ∮B dl=μ0 I

                                                  B ∮dl=μ0 I

                                                  B 2πr=μ0 I

                                                   B=μ02πr Id=μ0/4π I dl×rr3

Since, r can be written as r=(rcosθ,rsinθ,z) and dl as dl=(dl,0,0) And now, if we take the cross product we would get

                                               dl×r=−z dlj^+rsinθk^

and therefore the magnitude of dB is equal to

dB=μ0/4π I |dl×r|/r3=μ0/4π I z2+r2sin2θ−−−−−−−−−−√dl/r3

Thus, magnetic field is depending on r,θ,z.

On a straight, level, two-lane road, two cars moving in opposite directions approach and pass each other. Car A is in the eastbo
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

a) 42 m/s, positive direction (to the east), b) 42 m/s, negative direction (to the west).

Explanation:

a) Let consider that Car A is moving at positive direction. Then, the relative velocity of Car A as seen by the driver of Car B is:

\vec v_{A/B} = \vec v_{A} - \vec v_{B}\\\vec v_{A/B} = 11 \frac{m}{s} \cdot i + 31 \frac{m}{s} \cdot i\\\vec v_{A/B} = 42 \frac{m}{s} \cdot i

42 m/s, positive direction (to the east).

b) The relative velocity of Car B as seen by the drive of Car A is:

\vec v_{B/A} = \vec v_{B} - \vec v_{A}\\\vec v_{B/A} = -31 \frac{m}{s} \cdot i - 11 \frac{m}{s} \cdot i\\\vec v_{B/A} = - 42 \frac{m}{s} \cdot i

42 m/s, negative direction (to the west).

What's the equivalent resistance to the resistances shown?<br><br>A) 5<br>B) 6<br>C) 2<br>D) 3
PIT_PIT [208]
From A to B its 5 ohm.
above shown 6 and 12 ohm resistors are in parallel to short circuit hence their equivalent resistance is zero.
(Current doesnt flow through a resisstor if there is a Short circuit alternate.
