Answer:

B. He should change the lengths of the vectors that point tangent to the circle so that each is the same length.

Explanation:

A uniform circular motion is a motion in a circle where the tangential speed of the object is constant.

In the motion map:

- The arrows pointing towards the centre of the circle represent the centripetal acceleration, and their length represent the magnitude of the acceleration

- The arrows pointing tangential to the circle represent the tangential speed, and their length represent the magnitude of the speed

In this motion map, we see that the length of the vectors pointing tangent to the circle is not constant: this means that the speed is not constant. In order to have a uniform circular motion, the speed must be constant, therefore the lengths of the vectors that point tangent to the circle must be the same.

An ice cube of mass 50.0 g can slide without friction up and down a 25.0 degree slope. The ice cube is pressed against a spring

lozanna [386]

Answer:

0.6 m

Explanation:

When a spring is compressed it stores potential energy. This energy is:

Ep = 1/2 * k * x^2

Being x the distance it compressed/stretched.

When the spring bounces the ice cube back it will transfer that energy to the cube, it will raise up the slope, reaching a high point where it will have a speed of zero and a potential energy equal to what the spring gave it.

The potential energy of the ice cube is:

Ep = m * g * h

This is vertical height and is related to the distance up the slope by:

sin(a) = h/d

h = sin(a) * d

Replacing:

Ep = m * g * sin(a) * d

Equating both potential energies:

1/2 * k * x^2 = m * g * sin(a) * d

d = (1/2 * k * x^2) / (m * g * sin(a))

d= (1/2 * 25 * 0.1^2) / (0.05 * 9.81 * sin(25)) = 0.6 m

How do gravitational and electic force compare

velikii [3]

Electric Forces. ... Just like objects that have mass exert gravitational forces on each other, objects that are charged will also exert electric forces on each other. The electric force is directly proportional to the charge of the two objects and inversely proportional to the distance between them squared.

Sheila weighs 60 kg and is riding a bike. Her momentum on the bike is 340 kg • m/s. The bike hits a rock, which stops it complet

Vikki [24]

Answer:

v₂ = 5.7 m/s

Explanation:

We will apply the law of conservation of momentum here:

$Total\ Initial\ Momentum = m_{1}v_{1} + m_{2}v_{2}\\$

where,

Total Initial Momentum = 340 kg.m/s

m₁ = mass of bike

v₁ = final speed of bike = 0 m/s

m₂ = mass of Sheila = 60 kg

v₂ = final speed of Sheila = ?

Therefore,

$340\ kg.m/s = m_{1}(0\ m/s) + (60\ kg)v_{2}\\v_{2} = \frac{340\ kg.m/s}{60\ kg}\\\\$

v₂ = 5.7 m/s

Needddd helppppppp!!!

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

2/9 times as strong.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following assumptions were made:

Initial mass of 1st planet (M₁ ) = M

Initial mass of 2nd planet (m₁ ) = m

Initial distance apart (r₁) = r

Initial Force of attraction (F₁) = F

Final mass of 1st planet (M₂) = 2M

Final mass of 1st planet (m₂) = constant = m

Final distance apart (r₂) = 3r

Final force of attraction (F₂) =?

Next, we shall obtain an expression to determine the new force. This can be obtained as follow:

F = GMm / r²

Cross multiply

Fr² = GMm

Divide both side by Mn

G = Fr² / Mm

Since G is constant, then we have

F₁r₁² / M₁m₁ = F₂r₂² / M₂m₂

Finally, we shall determine the new force as follow:

Initial mass of 1st planet (M₁ ) = M

Initial mass of 2nd planet (m₁ ) = m

Initial distance apart (r₁) = r

Initial Force of attraction (F₁) = F

Final mass of 1st planet (M₂) = 2M

Final mass of 1st planet (m₂) = constant = m

Final distance apart (r₂) = 3r

Final force of attraction (F₂) =?

F₁r₁² / M₁m₁ = F₂r₂² / M₂m₂

Fr² / Mm = F₂ × (3r)² / 2M × m

Fr² / Mm = F₂ × 9r² / 2Mm

Cross multiply

Fr² × 2Mm = F₂ × 9r² × Mm

Divide both side by 9r² × Mm

F₂ = Fr² × 2Mm / 9r² × Mm

F₂ = F × 2 / 9

F₂ = 2/9 F

Thus, the new force is 2/9 times the original force i.e 2/9 times as strong.
