hammer [34]

Answer:

a_M=1.92a_A

Explanation:

\omega_M=\omega_A = Angular speed

r_M = Distance of Mary = 11.5 ft

r_A = Distance of Alex = 6 ft

Ratio of centripetal acceleration is given by

\dfrac{a_M}{a_A}=\dfrac{\omega_M^2r_M}{\omega_A^2r_A}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{a_M}{a_A}=\dfrac{r_M}{r_A}\\\Rightarrow a_M=a_A\dfrac{r_M}{r_A}\\\Rightarrow a_M=\dfrac{11.5}{6}a_A\\\Rightarrow a_M=1.92a_A

Mary's centripetal acceleration is 1.92 times the centripetal acceleration of Alex

A race car has a centripetal acceleration of 15.625 m/s2 as it goes around a curve. If the curve is a circle with radius 40 m, w
myrzilka [38]
The centripetal acceleration is given by
a_c =  \frac{v^2}{r}
where v is the tangential speed and r the radius of the circular orbit.

For the car in this problem, a_c = 15.625 m/s^2 and r=40 m, so we can re-arrange the previous equation to find the velocity of the car:
v= \sqrt{a_c r}= \sqrt{(15.625 m/s^2)(40 m)}=25 m/s

The Sun is going down, and most of the land is dark, still we can see silhouettes and outlines of objects because some light is still scattered in the atmosphere. I hope this helps you.

At the instant the traffic light turns green, a car that has been waiting at an intersection starts with a constant acceleration
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

(a) 300 ft

(b) 60 ft/s

Explanation:

distance d=0.5at^{2} where a is acceleration and t is time

d=0.5\times 6\times t^{2}=3t^{2}

Also, d=vt where v is the velocity

d=30t

Therefore

30t=3t^{2} hence t=10 s

Substituting t is either formula

d=30t=30*10=300 ft

Also

v=at hence v=6\times 10=60 ft/s
