You stand on a merry-go-round which is spinning at f = 0:25 revolutions per second. You are R = 200 cm from the center. (a) Find
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

(a) ω = 1.57 rad/s

(b) ac = 4.92 m/s²

(c) μs = 0.5

Explanation:

(a)

The angular speed of the merry go-round can be found as follows:

ω = 2πf

where,

ω = angular speed = ?

f = frequency = 0.25 rev/s

Therefore,

ω = (2π)(0.25 rev/s)

<u>ω = 1.57 rad/s </u>

(b)

The centripetal acceleration can be found as:

ac = v²/R

but,

v = Rω

Therefore,

ac = (Rω)²/R

ac = Rω²

therefore,

ac = (2 m)(1.57 rad/s)²

<u>ac = 4.92 m/s² </u>

(c)

In order to avoid slipping the centripetal force must not exceed the frictional force between shoes and floor:

Centripetal Force = Frictional Force

m*ac = μs*R = μs*W

m*ac = μs*mg

ac = μs*g

μs = ac/g

μs = (4.92 m/s²)/(9.8 m/s²)

<u>μs = 0.5</u>

The number line shows the starting and ending velocities for ball 1. What’s the change in velocity of ball 1? Calculate the valu
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

The starting velocity for ball 1 is 1.00 meter/second. Its ending velocity is 0.25 meter/second.

The change in velocity for ball 1 is 0.25 – 1.00 = -0.75 meter/seconds

Which of the following correctly describes the relative air pressure at the center of a hurricane, with respect to the horizonta
vampirchik [111]

Explanation:

The pressure of hurricane which is high decreases gradually as we move higher . The pressure is maximum at the surface . Hence the relative air pressure is higher at the surface and low at the top . Like wise the pressure is low at the center and keeps on increasing when we move outside . Hence the answer is pressure is high at surface and low aloft.
