The speed is changing its direction all the time. There
is an acceleration which changes the direction of the speed – that is called
centripetal acceleration. Only uniform linear motions are considered to have no
acceleration.
This is the general formula for acceleration
a = dv/dt
When calculating dv, you should keep in mind the change
in the velocity vector’s direction. You can easily see in a graph that with dt
tending to 0 (so the length of the arc covered is also tending to 0), the difference
between vectors Vf and V0 has a direction which is perpendicular to velocity
(the shorter the arc, the closest the angle is to 90 degrees).
There is a formula (which can be deducted from the
previous formula) which allows you to calculate the acceleration:
a = v^2/r
Let’s talk about the units:
v is in m/s
r is in m
so v^2/r
is in (m/s)^2/m = (m^2/s^2)/m = m/s^2
which is the same unit as dv/dt:
dv/dt = (m/s)/s= m/s^2
Answer:
The magnitude of the flux of electric field through a square of surface area is zero.
Explanation:
It is given that square box is parallel to yz-plane which has normal vector perpendicular to plane in x-direction. Angle between normal vector of area and electric field is 90°. Substituting in (1)
Answer:
4 times
Explanation:
As we know that the energy of a wave is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude of the wave,
Here, the amplitude of the wave A is twice as compared to B.
So, the energy of wave A is 4 times the energy of wave B.
Answer:
I_syst = 278.41477 kg.m²
Explanation:
Mass of platform; m1 = 117 kg
Radius; r = 1.61 m
Moment of inertia here is;
I1 = m1•r²/2
I1 = 117 × 1.61²/2
I1 = 151.63785 kg.m²
Mass of person; m2 = 62.5 kg
Distance of person from centre; r = 1.05 m
Moment of inertia here is;
I2 = m2•r²
I2 = 62.5 × 1.05²
I2 = 68.90625 kg.m²
Mass of dog; m3 = 28.3 kg
Distance of Dog from centre; r = 1.43 m
I3 = 28.3 × 1.43²
I3 = 57.87067 kg.m²
Thus,moment of inertia of the system;
I_syst = I1 + I2 + I3
I_syst = 151.63785 + 68.90625 + 57.87067
I_syst = 278.41477 kg.m²
