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 square current-carrying loop is placed in a uniform magnetic field B with the plane of the loop parallel to the magnetic field
Radda [10]

Answer:

(A) a net torque but no net force on the loop.

Explanation:

The total force on the loop is zero because the forces on the opposite sides of the loop are equal but act in opposite directions and as a result they cancel each other out. The two forces on opposite sides to the axis of rotation each give rise to a torque about the axis of rotation. This torque is directed along the axis of rotation.

Which of the following will cause an increase in gas pressure in a closed container?
Shalnov [3]
The answer is A. Or the first option. Pressure is changed by lowering the pressure, not reducing the volume. You would assume its C but its A.

A 57.0 kg cheerleader uses an oil-filled hydraulic lift to hold four 120 kg football players at a height of 1.10 m. If her pisto
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

The diameter of the piston of the players equals 55.136 cm.

Explanation:

from the principle of transmission of pressure in a hydraulic lift  we have

\frac{F_{1}}{A_{1}}=\frac{F_{2}}{A_{1}}

Since the force in the question is the weight of the individuals thus upon putting the values in the above equation we get

\frac{57.0\times 9.81}{\frac{\pi \times (19.0)^{2}}{4}}=\frac{4\times 120\times 9.81}{\frac{\pi \times D_{2}^{2}}{4}}

Solving for D_{2} we get

D_{2}^{2}=\frac{4\times 120}{57}\times 19^{2}\\\\\therefore D_{2}=\sqrt{\frac{4\times 120}{57}}\times 19\\\\D_{2}=55.136cm
