To answer the two questions, we need to know two important equations involving centripetal movement:
v = ωr (ω represents angular velocity <u>in radians</u>)
a = 
Let's apply the first equation to question a:
v = ωr
v = ((1800*2π) / 60) * 0.26
Wait. 2π? 0.26? 60? Let's break down why these numbers are written differently. In order to use the equation v = ωr, it is important that the units of ω is in radians. Since one revolution is equivalent to 2π radians, we can easily do the conversion from revolutions to radians by multiplying it by 2π. As for 0.26, note that the question asks for the units to be m/s. Since we need meters, we simply convert 26 cm, our radius, into meters. The revolutions is also given in revs/min, and we need to convert it into revs/sec so that we can get our final units correct. As a result, we divide the rate by 60 to convert minutes into seconds.
Back to the equation:
v = ((1800*2π)/60) * 0.26
v = (1800*2(3.14)/60) * 0.26
v = (11304/60) * 0.26
v = 188.4 * 0.26
v = 48.984
v = 49 (m/s)
Now that we know the linear velocity, we can find the centripetal acceleration:
a = 
a = 
a = 9234.6 (m/
)
Wow! That's fast!
<u>We now have our answers for a and b:</u>
a. 49 (m/s)
b. 9.2 *
(m/
)

Answer:
Explanation:
Assuming no friction between the roller coaster car and the hill, and neglecting air resistance, the kinetic energy the roller coaster car would have at the bottom of the hill would be equal to its gravitational potential energy at the top of the hill, by conservation of energy.

Explanation:
not sure but if the box isn't moving then the force opposite of Polly would be equal to the force she's exerting.
Answer:
The axis of rotation of the Earth is tilted at an angle of 23.5 degrees away from vertical, perpendicular to the plane of our planet's orbit around the sun. The tilt of the Earth's axis is important, in that it governs the warming strength of the sun's energy.
