1. Is the relationship between velocity and centripetal force a direct, linear relationship or is it a nonlinear square relation

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

non linear square relationship

Explanation:

formula for centripetal force is given as

a = mv^2/r

here a ic centripetal acceleration , m is mass of body moving in circle of radius r and v is velocity of body . If m ,and r are constant we have

a = constant × v^2

a α v^2

hence non linear square relationship

Which is usually greater for a pair of surfaces, the coefficient of static friction or the coefficient of sliding friction? why

lorasvet [3.4K]

Explanation :

Static friction is the frictional force between two objects that are at rest. While sliding friction is the frictional force between two objects in contact and are sliding w.r.t each other.

Static friction is usually greater than sliding friction because in static friction the contact forces is more and the interlocking between objects is tight as compared to sliding friction.

A wave has a wavelength of 3.0 m, a frequency of 25.0 Hz, and an amplitude of 14.0 cm. The wave travels in the positive x-direct

Mrac [35]

Answer:

The total number of oscillations made by the wave during the time of travel is 1.4 Oscillations. Strictly speaking, the number of complete oscillations is 1.

Explanation:

The required quantity is the number of complete oscillations made by the traveling wave. The amplitude time and frequency are not needed to calculate the number of oscillations as it is the ratio of the distance traveled to the wavelength( minimum distance that must be traveled to complete one oscillation) of the wave. So the total number of oscillations is 1.4 while the number of complete oscillations is 1 (strictly speaking). The detailed solution to this question can be found in the attachment below. Thank you!
