If we approximate the rack to be completely flat and the racecar is travelling a constant 30.5 m/s around the turn, what forces

are responsible for the centripetal acceleration?

We have,

The race car is travelling a constant 30.5 m/s around the turn. When the car is travelling around a turn, the centripetal force acts on it. The centripetal force is balanced by the force of friction between the car and the surface. Hence, frictional force is responsible for the centripetal acceleration.

A ball is thrown with a speed of 20 m/s at an angle of 40o above the horizontal from the top of a 22-m tall building.
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

(a). The distance is  49.79 m.

(b). The speed of the ball is 24.39 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed = 20 m/s

Angle = 40°

Height = 22 m

Time = 3.25 sec

(a). We need to calculate the distance

Using formula of distance

d=u\cos\theta\times t

Put the value into the formula

d=20\cos40\times3.25

d=49.79\ m

(b). We need to calculate the horizontal velocity

Using formula of velocity

v_{x}=u\cos\theta

Put the value into the formula

v_{x}=20\times\cos40

v_{x}=15.3\ m/s

We need to calculate the vertical velocity

Using equation of motion

v_{y}=u\sin\theta-gt

Put the value into the formula

v_{y}=20\sin40-9.8\times3.25

v_{y}=-19\ m/s

Negative sign shows the opposite direction.

We need to calculate the speed of ball

Using formula of speed

v=\sqrt{v_{x}^2+v_{y}^2}

v=\sqrt{(15.3)^2+(19)^2}

v=24.39\ m/s

Hence, (a). The distance is  49.79 m.

(b). The speed of the ball is 24.39 m/s.

A point charge q1q1 is held stationary at the origin. A second charge q2q2 is placed at point aa, and the electric potential ene
Yuri [45]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

            U_{a} = 5.4 \times 10^{-8} J

        W_{/text{a to b}} = -1.9 \times 10^{-8} J

        Electric potential energy (U_{b}) = ?

Formula to calculate electric potential energy is as follows.

            U_{b} = U_{a} - W_{/text{a to b}}

                        = 5.4 \times 10^{-8} J - (-1.9 \times 10^{-8} J)

                        = 7.3 \times 10^{-8} J

Thus, we can conclude that the electric potential energy of the pair of charges when the second charge is at point b is 7.3 \times 10^{-8} J.

Describe why you weigh less on moon than on earth. Give examples
dmitriy555 [2]
Weight doesn't really mean much as it just means gravity the bigger a space object is the more force it has to pull on something since the moon is smaller than the earth then it has less gravity and then less weight on scales.

A wave of wavelength 0.3 m travels 900 m in 3.0 s. Calculate its frequency.
zzz [600]

Answer:

1000 Hz

Explanation:

<em>The frequency would be 1000 Hz.</em>

The frequency, wavelength, and speed of a wave are related by the equation:

<em>v = fλ ..................(1)</em>

where v = speed of the wave, f = frequency of the wave, and λ = wavelength of the wave.

Making f the subject of the formula:

<em>f = v/λ.........................(2)</em>

Also, speed (v) = distance/time.

From the question, distance = 900 m, time = 3.0 s

Hence, v = 900/3.0 = 300 m/s

Substitute v = 300 and λ = 0.3  into equation (2):

f = 300/0.3 = 1000 Hz
