Answer:

a = 12.8 m/s^2

Explanation:

To find the centripetal acceleration you use the following formula:

a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}   (1)

v: tangential speed of the rock = 17.90mph

r: radius of the orbit = 1000cm/2 = 500cm = 0.5m

You first change the units of the tangential velocity in order to replace the values of v and r in the equation (1):

17.90mph*\frac{1609.34m}{1\ m}*\frac{1\ h}{3600\ s}=8m/s

Then, you use the equation (1):

a_c=\frac{(8m/s)^2}{5m}=12.8\frac{m}{s^2}

hence, the centripetal acceleration is 12.8 m/s^2

A 1400 kg car starts from rest on a horizontal road and gains a speed of 61 km/h in 19 s. (a) what is its kinetic energy at the
lana [24]
(a) Let's convert the final speed of the car in m/s:
v_f = 61 km/h = 16.9 m/s
The kinetic energy of the car at t=19 s is
K= \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2= \frac{1}{2}(1400 kg)(16.9 m/s)^2=2.00 \cdot 10^5 J

(b) The average power delivered by the engine of the car during the 19 s is equal to the work done by the engine divided by the time interval:
P= \frac{W}{\Delta t}
But the work done is equal to the increase in kinetic energy of the car, and since its initial kinetic energy is zero (because the car starts from rest), this translates into
P= \frac{K}{\Delta t}= \frac{2.00 \cdot 10^5 J}{19 s}=1.05 \cdot 10^4 W

(c) The instantaneous power is given by
P_i = Fv_f
where F is the force exerted by the engine, equal to F=ma.

So we need to find the acceleration first:
a= \frac{v_f-v_i}{\Delta t}=  \frac{16.9 m/s}{19 s}=0.89 m/s^2
And the problem says this acceleration is constant during the motion, so now we can calculate the instantaneous power at t=19 s:
P_i = Fv=(ma)v=(1400 kg)(0.89 m/s^2)(16.9 m/s)=2.11 \cdot 10^4 W

Three small balls of the same size but different masses are hung side-by-side in parallel on the strings of same length. They to
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

m1/6 ( c )

Explanation:

since all the balls starts having the same momentum after the two collisions we will apply the principal of conservation of energy

After first collision

m1v = m1v1 + m2v2 --- ( 1 )

After second collision

m2v2 = m2v2 + m3v3   ---- ( 2 )

combining equations 1 and 2

m1v = m1v1 + m2v2 + m3v3  ----- ( 3 )

All balls moving at the same momentum ( p ) = m1v1 = m2v2 = m3v3

note ; 3p = m1v ∴ m3 = \frac{m1v}{3v3}  -----  ( 4 )

applying conservation of energy

3v = v1 + v2 + v3 ------- ( 5 )

also 3m1v1 = m1v = v1 = v/3 =

v2 + v3 = 8/3 v ----- ( 6 )

next eliminate V3 for equation 6 by applying conservation of energy and momentum

m1 =  2m2 ------ ( 7 )

now using p1 = p2 = m1v1 = 1/2 m1v1  hence v2 = 2v1  where v1 = 1/3 v

hence ; v2 = 2/3 v ------- ( 8 )

solving with equation 6 and 8

v3 = 2v ------ ( 9 ) ∴  v/v3 = 1/2 ---- ( 10 )

solving with equation 9 and 10

m3 = m1/3 * 1/2 = m1/6

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

the reason for the acceleration month that the coefficient of kinetic friction is less than the coefficient of satic frictionExplanation:

This exercise uses Newton's second law with the condition that the acceleration is zero, by the time the body begins to slide. At this point the balance of forces is

    fr- w || = 0

The expression for friction force is that it is proportional to the coefficient of friction by normal.

    fr = μ N

When the system is immobile, the coefficient of friction is called static coefficient and has a value, this is due to the union between  the surface, when the movement begins some joints are broken giving rise to coefficient of kinetic friction less than static.  

In consequence a lower friction force, which is why the system comes out of balance and begins to accelerate.

      μ kinetic <μ static

  In all this movement the normal with changed that the angle of the table remains fixed.

Consequently, the reason for the acceleration month that the coefficient of kinetic friction is less than the coefficient of satic friction
