An astronaut of mass 65kg in training rides in a seat that is moved in uniform circular motion by a radial arm 5.10 meters long.

If her speed is 15.0 m/s, what is the centripetal force on her?

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

= 2868 Newtons

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Centripetal force is a force that acts on an object or a body in circular path and is directed towards the center of the circular path.

Centripetal force is given by the formula;

mv²/r ; where m is the mass of the body, r is the radius of the circular path and v is the velocity of a body;

mass = 65 kg, velocity = 15 m/s and r = 5.1 m

Therefore;

Centripetal force = (65 × 15²)/ 5.10

                            = 2867.65 Newtons

                            = 2868 N

An object is moving to the west at a constant speed. three forces are exerted on the object. one force is 10 n directed due nort
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
If we want the object to continue to move at constant speed, it means that the resultant of the forces acting on the object must be zero. So far, we have:
- force F1 with direction north, of 10 N
- force F2 with direction west, of 10 N
The third force must balance them, in order to have a net force of zero on the object.

The resultant of the two forces F1 and F2 is
F_{12} =  \sqrt{F_1^2+F_2^2}= \sqrt{(10 N)^2+(10 N)^2}= \sqrt{200}=14.1 N
with direction at 45^{\circ} north-west. This means that F3 must be equal and opposite to this force: so, F3 must have magnitude 14.1 N and its direction should be 45^{\circ} south-east.

What is the frequency of radiation emitted by a photon of light if the energy released during its transition to ground state is
miskamm [114]
If i was feeling harsh today, I'd say the answer to your question is impossible to obtain due to the fact that photons do not emit radiation, photons ARE the radiation emitted. Though for the sake of it, here is the method...

<u>The simple method:
</u>

E=hf

therefore f=e/h

f=(3.611x10^-15) / 6.63x10^-34)

Answer: 5.45x10^18

Identify characteristics of energy from the Sun. Check all that apply.
-BARSIC- [3]

Almost all of the energy on Earth comes from the Sun

The energy in fossil fuels originally came from the Sun

Plants convert the energy

Explanation:

The sun is the ultimate source of energy on earth and even the whole of the solar system. The sun drives and powers all external processes on earth. It produces its energy from the nuclear fusion of lighter nuclei into heavier ones.

  • Almost all of the energy on earth comes from the sun. A few component of the energy on the surface comes from the internal heat engine.
  • The energy of fossil fuels originally came from the sun. This is because, plants stores the energy in the process of photosynthesis. When they die and the energy is not released, the energy is stored as fossil fuels.
  • Plants in the process of photosynthesis converts the energy. Here green plants combines carbon dioxide and water in the presence of sunlight.
