Answer:

The carrier lengthen is 0.08436 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length = 370 m

Initial temperature = 2.0°C

Final temperature = 21°C

We need to calculate the change temperature

Using formula of change of temperature

\Delta T=T_{f}-T_{i}

\Delta T=21-2.0

\Delta T=19^{\circ}C

We need to calculate the carrier lengthen

Using formula of length

\Delta L=\alpha_{steel}\times L_{0}\times\Delta T

Put the value into the formula

\Delta L=1.2\times10^{-5}\times370\times19

\Delta L=0.08436\ m

Hence, The carrier lengthen is 0.08436 m.

A child with a weight of 430 N rides on a Ferris wheel, which has a radius of 17 m, and the linear velocity of the 3.5 m/s at an
Murrr4er [49]

At the lowest point on the Ferris wheel, there are two forces acting on the child: their weight of 430 N, and an upward centripetal/normal force with magnitude n; then the net force on the child is

∑ F = ma

n - 430 N = (430 N)/g • a

where m is the child's mass and a is their centripetal acceleration. The child has a linear speed of 3.5 m/s at any point along the path of the wheel whose radius is 17 m, so the centripetal acceleration is

a = (3.5 m/s)² / (17 m) ≈ 0.72 m/s²

and so

n = 430 N + (430 N)/g (0.72 m/s²) ≈ 460 N

Answer:

An object that is moving wants to stay moving in a straight line. It takes an outside force acting upon it to change its direction or cause an acceleration.
