Because "acceleration" doesn't mean "speeding up".  It means any change
in the speed or direction of motion.

An airplane speeding up, a bicycle slowing down, and a car going around a curve, are all doing accelerated motion.

A circle has no straight parts, so an object traveling in a circle is always changing
its direction. That means accelerated motion, even if its speed doesn't change..

B. accelerates in the direction of the force. this is because the force is now unbalanced, causing the object to move in that direction. it's like pushing a pen off the table. you applied force in that direction and since the pen doesn't have enough inertia to withstand your unbalanced force, it rolls off the table.

A helium balloon ride lifts up passengers in a basket. Assume the density of air is 1.28 kg/m3 and the density of helium in the
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

V = 381.70 m³

Explanation:

ρ air = 1.28 kg / m³

ρ helium = 0.18 kg / m³

R = 4.5 m

Vb = 0.068 m³

mb = 123 kg

To determine the volume of helium in the balloon when fully inflated

V = 4 / 3 π * R ³

V = 4 * π / 3 ( 4.5 m )³

V = 381.70 m³

To determine the mass total

m = ρ helium * V

m = 0.18 kg / m³  * 381.70  m³

m = 68.70 kg

mt = ( 68.70 + 123 )kg

mt = 191.70 kg
