Answer:

Explanation:

Given that the angular velocity is constant.

The actual weight is W = 549N

The ride apparent weight is

W' = 1.5N

Apparent weight at the top of the ride?

Using newton second law of motion

ΣF = m•ar

ar is the radial acceleration

N — W = —m•ar

N = W —m•ar

N = mg —m•ar

N = m(g—ar)

The apparent weight is equal to the normal

W'(top) = N = m(g—ar)

W'(top) = m(g—ar)

W'(top) = mg —m•ar

We know that the actual weight is

W=mg

Also, the apparent weight is

W' = m•ar

Then

W'(top) = Actual weight - apparent

W'(top) = 549—1.5

W'(top) = 547.5 N

What is the Voltage of a circuit that has a resistance of 50 and a current of 2 A?
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

It's actually 100V

Explanation:

To answer this, you'd need to use Ohm's law, which states that Voltage is equivalent to the product of Current and Resistance (V=IR).

V = 50 × 2

V = 100

Therefore the voltage is a 100V.

None of the answers you have listed match this though, so I'm guessing it either must be typo or the question itself is wrong.

What is carried by a wave?
Nata [24]
Waves carry energy from one place to another. Because waves carry energy, some waves are used for communication, eg radio and television waves and mobile telephone signals. ... Some types of waves need to be transmitted through matter, either a solid, liquid or a gas. For example, water waves have to travel in water.

The continuous submarine mountain range which winds through all the oceans is called the mid-ocean
Artist 52 [7]
The continuous submarine mountain range which winds through all the oceans is called the mid-ocean <u>ridge.
</u>It is a form of a mountain which is found underwater, and it appeared there due to the movements of tectonic plates. It is responsible for the creation of new seafloor, meaning that the ground underwater changes constantly with the formation of these ridges. <u>
