Answer:

By calculation, it can be shown that;

K = \frac{F_{angular}}{2\times x\times c}

Whereby for constant K, as  {F_{angular}} increases,  x also increases.

Explanation:

The experiment set up consisted of the use of a spring force to maintain the object in  circular path.

The energy in the spring is given by

\frac{1}{2}\cdot k\cdot x^2.

Rotational kinetic energy = \frac{1}{2}·I·ω²

Inertia,  I =  \frac{1}{2}·m·r²

ω = \frac{v}{r}

Substituting gives

Rotational kinetic energy =  \frac{1}{2}·

=  \frac{1}{4}·m· v²

Equating both equations gives

K = \frac{2\times m\times v^2}{4\times x^{2} }  = \frac{1\times m\times v^2}{2\times x^{2} }  

Within the proportionality limit, x ∝ r

therefore we can write x = c·r which gives

\frac{ m\times v^2}{2\times x\times c\times r } = \frac{v^{2} }{r} \times\frac{m}{2\times x\times c}

Since \frac{v^{2} }{r} = angular acceleration, α, then

m× \frac{v^{2} }{r} = Angular force

Therefore K = \frac{F_{angular}}{2\times x\times c}

Therefore as Force, F increases, x also increases and the size of a spring force should be proportional to the amount of stretch in the spring.

Ugo [173]

Answer:

The correct answer is - c.  Spaceship will have a velocity to the East and will be slowing down.

Explanation:

In this case, if turned on thruster #2 then it will exert force on the west side as thruster 2 is on the east side and it can be understood by Newton's third law that says each action has the same but opposite reaction.

As the spaceship engine applies force on the east side then according to the law the exhauster gas applies on towards west direction. It will try to decrease the velocity of the spaceship however, the direction of floating still be east side initally.

A 150-newton force, applied to a wooden crate at an angle of 30° above the horizontal, causesthe crate to travel at constant vel
omeli [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

A component of 150 N in vertical direction will reduce the magnitude of reaction force.

reaction force exerted by the floor

= mg - 150 sin 30

where m is mass of the crate .

the magnitude of the horizontal component of the 150-newton force

150 cos30

= 130 N

This force tries to pull the crate in forward direction with acceleration but it has no acceleration . It is so because frictional force of equal magnitude acts on it in opposite direction which makes the net force acting on it equal to zero.

Hence frictional force is equal to 150 cos 30.

= 130 N .

Answer:

A comet is cruising through the solar system at a speed of 50,000 kilometers per hour for 4 hours time. What is the total distance traveled by the comet during this time?

✓ Distance = Speed * Time Distance = 50,000 * 4 Distance = 200,000 km. Hope this helps
