While watching some tv you see a circus show in which a woman drives a motorcycle around the inside of a vertical ring. you dete

rmine that she goes around at a constant speed and that it takes her 4.0 seconds to get around when she is going her slowest. if she is going at the minimum speed for this stunt to work, the motorcycle is just barely touching the ring when she is upside down at the top. at that point she is in free fall. she just makes it around without falling off the ring; but what is she made a mistake and her motorcycle fell of at the top? how high us is she? would someone be hurt falling from this height?

Since the biker is moving at constant speed

so we will have

v = \frac{distance}{time}

here we know that

distance = 2\pi R

time = 4 second

now we have

v = \frac{2\pi R}{4} = \frac{\pi R}{2}

now at the top point it feels free fall

so it is

mg = \frac{mv^2}{R}

v^2 = Rg

(\frac{\pi R}{2})^2 = Rg

R = \frac{4g}{\pi^2}

so height of the bike at the top is same as diameter

h = 2R

h = \frac{8g}{\pi^2} = 7.95 meter

Yes it will hurt on falling from this height

What is the current when a typical static charge of 0.234~\mu\text{c}0.234 μc moves from your finger to a metal doorknob in 0.59
Black_prince [1.1K]
The current is defined as the quantity of charge Q that passes through a certain location in a time \Delta t:
I= \frac{Q}{\Delta t}
Using the data of the problem, we find:
I= \frac{Q}{\Delta t} = \frac{0.234 \mu C}{0.595 \mu s}=\frac{0.234\cdot 10^{-6} C}{0.595 \cdot 10^{-6} s}=0.39 A

Electron kinetic energies are often measured in units of electron-volts (1 eV 1.6 x 10-19 J), which is the kinetic energy of an
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

4.1 eV

Explanation:

Kinetic energy, K = 0.8 eV = 0.8 x 1.6 x 10^-19 J = 1.28 x 10^-19 J

wavelength, λ = 253.5 nm = 253.5 x 10^-9 m

According to the Einstein energy equation

E = W_{o}+K

Where, E be the energy incident, Wo is the work function and K is the kinetic energy.

h = 6.634 x 10^-34 Js

c = 3 x 10^8 m/s

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda }=\frac{6.634 \times 10^{-34} \times 3 \times 10^{8}}{253.5\times 10^{-9}}=7.85 \times 10^{-19} J

So, the work function, Wo = E - K

Wo = 7.85 x 10^-19 - 1.28 x 10^-19

Wo = 6.57 x 10^-19 J

Wo = 4.1 eV

Thus, the work function of the metal is 4.1 eV.

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The gravity is pushing the water downward so Wayne could go down but the water is pushing Wayne to go up which would make him float.
