1. A car with a mass of 1,500 kilograms is moving around a circular curve at a uniform velocity of 16 m/s. The curve has a radiu

s of 100 meters. What's the centripetal force on the car?
2. A car with a mass of 1,200 kg is moving around a circular curve at a uniform velocity of 20 m/s. The centripetal force on the car is 6,000 N. What's the radius of the curve?

Discovered by Sir Isaac Newton, this law states that every object in the universe that has mass attracts every other object in the universe that has mass. The force is proportional to the product of the two masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers. When applying this to a situation with two objects, the object with the smaller mass will do most of the moving because the other object has too much inertia to move any noticeable amount.


4. Without advanced technology like we have today, Ptolemy and Copernicus tried to best explain the model of the universe through observation. Ptolemy’s model came first and placed a stationary earth at the center of the model. Everything else moved in respect to earth. This was widely accepted since it seemed like earth was not moving. Ptolemy stated that the planetary bodies moved around the earth in circular paths. However, this wasn’t always witnessed through observation. He adjusted his model to state that some planets must be moving in secondary orbits.


Copernicus put a rotating earth in a sun-centered model. The rotation of earth was able to account for the rising and setting of stars. The orbital motion of the earth and moon also accounted for the motion of the sun and moon with respect to the stars. This was easier to understand but encountered scrutiny due to its differences from religious teachings.


One big difference between the approaches in the two is that Copernicus didn’t try to adjust his model to match what was going on; he used observations to develop the model. In addition, one common trend in science is that the simplest explanation is usually most accurate or closer to accurate. Copernicus’ model was more straightforward; Ptolemy’s was more complex.

<u>Answers</u>

1)  3,840 N

2) 80 m


<u>Explanations</u>

Centripetal force is the force that maintenance objects that are moving in a circular motion.

F = mv²/r

  = (1500 × 16²)/100

   = (1500×256)/100

     = 384000/100

     = 3,840 N

2) F = (mv²)/r

       6000 N = (1200 × 20²)/r

r = (1200 × 400)/6000

   = 480,000/6000

     = 80 m

What happens to the equilibrium price and quantity for jelly when the price of peanut butter increases? (Assume that peanut butt
Darya [45]

Answer:

Equilibrium price will fall and quantity demanded for jelly will also fall

<u>Explanation:</u>

Peanut butter and jelly are consumed together. It means they are complementary goods. These are those goods which are bought together. So increase or decrease in the price of one commodity will automatically affect the demand for another commodity.

When the price of peanut butter increases than people will demand less of peanut butter. Similarly, the demand for jelly is associated directly with the demand for peanut butter. So it will also fall . Due to the fall in the price of jelly and simultaneous fall in demand, the equilibrium price will fall.

When a hot and cold object are placed in contact, the hot one loses energy. Does this violate energy conservation? Why or why no
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

This does not violate the conservation of energy.

Explanation:

This does not violate the conservation of energy because the hot body gives energy in the form of heat to the colder body, this second absorbs energy. This will be the case until both bodies reach the same temperature, reaching thermal equilibrium and reducing the transfer of thermal energy. In this way the energy was only transferred from one body to another but the total energy of the system (body 1 plus body 2) will be the same as in the beginning, respecting the principle of conservation of energy or also called the first principle of thermodynamics .

The part of physics that studies these processes is in turn called heat transfer or heat transfer or thermal transfer. Heat transfer occurs whenever there is a thermal gradient or when two systems with different temperatures come into contact. The process persists until thermal equilibrium is reached, that is, until temperatures are equalized. When there is a temperature difference between two objects or regions close enough, the heat transfer cannot be stopped, it can only be slowed down.
