A ball on the end of a string is whirled around in a horizontal circle of radius 0.478 m. The plane of the circle is 1.02 m abov

e the ground. The string breaks and the ball lands 2.5 m away from the point on the ground directly beneath the ball’s location when the string breaks. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . Find the centripetal acceleration of the ball during its circular motion. Answer in units of m/s 2 .

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall find first the velocity of ball at the time when string breaks. Let it be v . During its fall on the ground , 1.02 m below, we use the formula

h = 1/2 gt² where t is time of fall .

1.02 = 1/2 x 9.8 x t²

t²= .2081

t = .456

During this time it travels horizontally at distance of 2.5 m with uniform velocity of v

v x .456 = 2.5

v  = 5.48 m /s

centripetal acceleration

= v² / r where r is radius of the circular path

= 5.48² / .478

= 62.82 m /s²

If you cannot exert enough force to loosen a bolt with a wrench, which of the following should you do?
stepan [7]

Answer:

2.) Use a wrench with a longer handle.

Explanation:

It is suggested to use a wrench with longer handle if you cannot exert enough force to loosen a bolt with a wrench.

In doing this work, the torque which is the force that can turn the screw is not enough;

      Torque  = force x distance

If we increase the distance or the length of the handle, we can generate more torque to overcome the force needed.

Which of these would represent the force of gravity
tigry1 [53]

Missing figure: find it in attachment.

Answer:

Force D

Explanation:

In order to answer the question, let's keep in mind that the force of gravity on an object on Earth is the attractive force exerted by the Earth on the object; its direction is always downward (towards the Earth's centre), and its magnitude is given by

F = mg

where m is the mass of the object and g is the acceleration of gravity.

It follows immediately that in the figure, the force of gravity is the only force acting downward: therefore, force D.

The other forces are called:

Force A: thrust (it is the forward force generated by the engines)

Force B: lift (it is the upward produced by the aerodynamics of the wings)

Force C: air resistance (it is the backward force due to the friction between the air and the surface of the plane)

Give reason for the following:
Zigmanuir [339]

a) An inflated balloon was pressed against a wall after it has been rubbed with a piece of synthetic cloth. It was found that the balloon sticks to the wall. <u>This is because a positive and negative electric charge is produced, therefore the balloon sticks to the wall.</u>

b) When an object is thrown up, it comes back to ground <u>because of gravitational attraction force of earth</u>.

c) Mountaineers suffer nose bleeding at higher altitudes <u>because the oxygen level decreases with increase in altitude, which the body cannot adjust.</u>

d) Foundations of high rise buildings are kept wide <u>because more is the area of contact, less is the pressure efforts. So, foundations are wide so as to decrease the possibility of the building from falling down.</u>

e) Deep sea divers or high altitude fliers wear special suits <u>so as prevent their body from being crushed by the water pressure. Since water pressure is maximum at deep seas and oceans, therefore, more is the risk of being injured.</u>

f) Walls of a dam are thickened near the base <u>so that the dam can handle the kinetic energy pressure and prevent itself from breaking down, which if not, can lead to flooding</u>.

The dancing bear family loves when their trainer gives them little treats to reward them for a good performance. If the trainer
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

748 treats.

Explanation:

If the trainer gives out 34 treats and gave them out for 22 shows, then to find the total you need to multiply 34 by 22, or (a longer but more simple way) add 34, 22 times.
