Explanation:

  • If an object moves in a circular path, this type of motion is called uniform circular motion.
  • The speed of the object is constant in this type of motion.
  • As velocity is a vector quantity, it keeps on changing. It can be given by drawing tangent to the circle.
  • Acceleration acts towards the center of circle.
  • Hence, out of the given four options, the correct statement about a planet orbiting a star in uniform circular motion is (d) i.e. The acceleration vector of the plant points towards the center of the circle.

Mr. Beall paddles his canoe at 8.0 m/s North in a river that flows at 6.0 m/s to the South. What is the magnitude and direction
kifflom [539]

Answer:

2 /s north

Explanation:

Given that,

Velocity due North is 8 m/s and due south is 6 m/s

We need to find the magnitude and the direction of the resulting velocity.

Let North is positive and South is negative. When two velocities are in opposite direction, they adds up. So,

v=8+(-6)\\\\v=2\ m/s

It is positive. So, it is in North direction.

Explain why the types of technology valued can vary.
Elan Coil [88]
Over time, the types of technology can vary and be improved upon so that more advanced techniques become more valued. This could be the situation with mining whereby back in the 1500's in underground mines the rock was broken by fire setting ie lighting a fire below the rock face to heat up the rock and then throwing cold water on it to crack it, so that it could be dug by hand. With the advent of explosives, this all changed so that the rock could be blasted. The increase in advance rates for an underground heading have thus gone from 5-20 feet per month to up to 300meters (984 ft) per month for a 24/7 mining operation, which is a huge improvement.

A man pushes a shopping cart across a level floor. What force resists the effort force? A) gravity B) friction C) the normal for
Kipish [7]

Answer:

B) Friction

Explanation:

Friction is a force that acts when an object is sliding along a surface. Microscopically, this force is due to the fact that the two surfaces are not perfectly smooth, but they have "imperfections" that cause a force that opposes the motion of the object.

For an object sliding on a flat surface, the force of friction has magnitude:

F_f = \mu_k mg

where

\mu_k is the coefficient of kinetic friction

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration of gravity

The direction of the force of friction is always opposite to the direction of motion of the object.

In reality, friction also acts if the object is at rest and it is pushed by a force; in this case, we talk about static friction, and its magnitude is

F_f = \mu_s mg

where \mu_s is called coefficient of static friction, and it is generally larger than the coefficient of kinetic friction.
