ANSWER:
D) centripetal acceleration.
STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:
When a body performs a uniform circular motion, the direction of the velocity vector changes at every instant. This variation is experienced by the linear vector, due to a force called centripetal, directed towards the center of the circumference that gives rise to the centripetal acceleration.
Therefore, the answer is centripetal acceleration.
Answer:
The load has a mass of 2636.8 kg
Explanation:
Step 1 : Data given
Mass of the truck = 7100 kg
Angle = 15°
velocity = 15m/s
Acceleration = 1.5 m/s²
Mass of truck = m1 kg
Mass of load = m2 kg
Thrust from engine = T
Step 2:
⇒ Before the load falls off, thrust (T) balances the component of total weight downhill:
T = (m1+m2)*g*sinθ
⇒ After the load falls off, thrust (T) remains the same but downhill component of weight becomes m1*gsinθ .
Resultant force on truck is F = T – m1*gsinθ
F causes the acceleration of the truck: F= m*a
This gives the equation:
T – m1*gsinθ = m1*a
T = m1(a + gsinθ)
Combining both equations gives:
(m1+m2)*g*sinθ = m1*(a + gsinθ)
m1*g*sinθ + m2*g*sinθ =m1*a + m1*g*sinθ
m2*g*sinθ = m1*a
Since m1+m2 = 7100kg, m1= 7100 – m2. This we can plug into the previous equation:
m2*g*sinθ = (7100 – m2)*a
m2*g*sinθ = 7100a – m2a
m2*gsinθ + m2*a = 7100a
m2* (gsinθ + a) = 7100a
m2 = 7100a/(gsinθ + a)
m2 = (7100 * 1.5) / (9.8sin(15°) + 1.5)
m2 = 2636.8 kg
The load has a mass of 2636.8 kg
First law is Conservation of Energy
Second is that entropy of an isolated system will always increase with time.
Entropy is the change of disorder through time. The best statement which relates to the 2nd law is C. Thermal energy flows from areas of higher to lower temperature
