Is an object moving in a circle at a constant speed accelerating?

Physics
1 answer:

Answer:

yes.

Accelerating objects are objects which are changing their velocity - either the speed (i.e., magnitude of the velocity vector) or the direction. An object undergoing uniform circular motion is moving with a constant speed.

I cant solve this problem, and our teacher said that this would be in the test we'll have tomorrow, can someone help me?
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

d = 11.1 m

Explanation:

Since the inclined plane is frictionless, this is just a simple application of the conservation law of energy:

\frac{1}{2} m {v}^{2}  = mgh

Let d be the displacement along the inclined plane. Note that the height h in terms of d and the angle is as follows:

\sin(15)  =  \frac{h}{d}  \\ or \: h = d \sin(15)

Plugging this into the energy conservation equation and cancelling m, we get

{v}^{2}  = 2gd \sin(15)

Solving for d,

d =  \frac{ {v}^{2} }{2g \sin(15) }  =  \frac{ {(7.5 \:  \frac{m}{s}) }^{2} }{2(9.8 \:  \frac{m}{ {s}^{2} })(0.259)}   \\ = 11.1 \: m

Which of the following is NOT accelerating?
ivolga24 [154]
I would say the answer to your question is A Ferris wheel turning at a constant speed. The reasoning behind this answer is the fact that traveling in a constant direction at a constant speed is not accelerating. The Ferris wheel is the only option that fits this description. The last option would be incorrect due to independent causes such as speed limit changes as well as turns and stops on the highway.

A 174 pound Jimmy Cheek is riding on a 54 ft diameter Ferris Wheel. The normal force on Jimmy Cheek is 146 pounds when Jimmy is
Veronika [31]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the balance of Forces, the centripetal Force and Newton's second law.

I will also attach a free body diagram that allows a better understanding of the problem.

For there to be a balance between weight and normal strength, these two must be equivalent to the centripetal Force, therefore

F_c = W-N

m\omega^2r = W-N

Here,

m = Net mass

\omega= Angular velocity

r = Radius

W = Weight

N = Normal Force

m\omega^2r = 174-146

The net mass is equivalent to

F = mg \rightarrow m = \frac{F}{g}

Then,

m = \frac{174lb}{32.17ft/s^2}

Replacing we have then,

(\frac{174lb}{32.17ft/s^2})\omega^2 (54ft) =174lb-146lb

Solving to find the angular velocity we have,

\omega = 0.309rad/s

Therefore the angular velocity is 0.309rad/s
