A ball is attached to the end of a massless string. A circus clown twirls the string with a pulling force of 12 N, and the ball

travels in a horizontal circle of radius 87 cm. The ball completes one revolution every 1.4 seconds. What is the mass of the ball?

Answer: 0.68 kg

Explanation:

The ball in this example moves by uniform circular motion. In a uniform circular motion, an object of mass m moves in a circular orbit of radius r, with constant tangential speed v. This type of motion is produced by a force F (called centripetal force) that "pushes" the object towards the centre of the circular path. The magnitude of this force is given by

F=m\frac{v^2}{r}

The formula can also be rewritten as

F=m\omega^2 r

where \omega=\frac{2 \pi}{T} the angular frequency, and T is the period of revolution.

In this problem, we have the following data:

- centripetal force: F = 12 N

- radius: r = 87 cm = 0.87 m

- period of revolution: T = 1.4 s

Using the last formula, we can find the angular frequency:

\omega=\frac{2 \pi}{T}=\frac{2 \pi}{1.4 s}=4.49 rad/s

And now we can substitute \omega inside the formula of the centripetal force, and by re-arranging it we can find the mass of the ball:

m=\frac{F}{\omega^2 r}=\frac{12 N}{(4.49 rad/s)^2 (0.87 m)}=0.68 kg

Metals are used in many products because of the characteristic properties that most metals share. Which properties of the metal
Anastaziya [24]

The most important characteristics that are exhibited by metals are-

1- Metals are ductile

2-Most metals are conductive in nature.

3-Most metals are malleable.

4- Metals have strong inter molecular force of attraction between the.

5-Metals have luster.

6-Metals are sonorous.

Here we are given Tungsten filament.

Tungsten is  a metal.So it must be conductive and as well as ductile in nature.

The electric filament that we are using in our electric bulb glows due to the heating effect of current.Hence the chosen substances for glowing electric bulb must have high melting point.

The melting point of tungsten is 1650 degree celsius which is very high.That's why it is used in electric bulb.

Hence the correct answer to the question is the third one i.e Tungsten is ductile,has a high melting point, and is electrically conductive.

The similarity between thermal energy, heat and temperature?
Vitek1552 [10]
Heat energy and thermal energy are the same because heat energy is thermal energy. Also thermal energy and temperature are the same because temperature is measuring heat in degrees Celsius or degrees Fahrenheit. Hope this helps!

if a current of 0.3 ampere flows through a conductor of resistance of 11.7 ohm's,the voltage across the ends of the conductor is
Gnesinka [82]

Here,

Resistance = 11.7

Ampere = 0.3

Voltage = ?

Now,

R = V/A

11.7 = V/0.3

11.7*0.3 =V

V = 3.51

Answer:

a. 11 m/s at 76° with respect to the original direction of the lighter car.

Explanation:

In this exercise, since both cars make a right angle, let's assume that the lighter car only has a horizontal velocity component (vx) and that the heavier one only has a vertical velocity component (vy). The final velocities for both components for the system can be determined as:

m_{1} v_{x1}+m_{2}v_{x2}=(m_{1}+m_{2})v_{fx}\\m_{1} v_{y1}+m_{2}v_{y2} =(m_{1}+m_{2})v_{fy}

Assume that the lighter car has a 1kg mass and that the heavier car has a 4 kg mass.

1*13 + 4*0 = (1+4) v_{fx}\\v_{fx}=\frac{13}{5} =2.6\\1*0 + 4*13 = (1+4) v_{fy}\\v_{fy}=\frac{13*4}{5} =10.4\\

The magnitude of the final velocity of the wreck can be found as:

v_{f}^{2}= v_{fx}^{2}+ v_{fy}^{2}\\v_{f}=\sqrt[]{2.6^{2} + 10.4^{2}} \\v_{f}= 10.72

The final velocity has an intensity of roughly 11 m/s

As for the angle, it can be determined in respect to the lighter car (x axis) as follows:

\theta = cos^{-1}(\frac{v_{fx} }{v_{f}} )\\\theta = cos^{-1}(\frac{2.6}{10.7} )\\\theta = 76^{o}

Therefore, the wreck has a velocity with an intensity of 11 m/s at 76° with respect to the original direction of the lighter car.
