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

The compound PCl5 decomposes into Cl2 and PCl3. The equilibrium of PCl5(g) Cl2(g) + PCl3(g) has a Keq of 2.24 x 10-2 at 327°C. W
nordsb [41]
Take note of the reaction formula which is PCl5=Cl2+PCl3.
The Keq = [Cl2] * [PCl3] / [PCl5]=2.24*10^-2.
For the reason that the volume is 1 liter, the concentration of Cl2 will be computed through: <span>(2.24 * 10^-2) * 0.235 / 0.174 </span> = 0.0303 mol/L is the answer.

A 1300 kg car moving at 20 m/s and a 900 kg car moving at 15 m/s in precisely oppositedirections participate in a head-on crash.
miskamm [114]

Given

Car 1

m1 = 1300 kg

v1 = 20 m/s

m2 = 900 kg

v2 = -15 m/s

(Negative sign shows that direction of car 2 is opposite to car 1)

Procedure

As per the conservation of linear momentum, "The total momentum of the system before the collision must be equal to the total momentum after the collision". And this applies to the perfectly inelastic collision as well. Then the expression is,

\begin{gathered} m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(m_1+m_2)v \\ v=\frac{m_1v_1+m_2v_2}{m_1+m_2} \\ v=\frac{1300\operatorname{kg}\cdot20m/s-900\operatorname{kg}\cdot15m/s}{1300\operatorname{kg}+900\operatorname{kg}} \\ v=5.681m/s \end{gathered}

Thus, we can conclude that the speed and direction of the cars after the impact is 5.68 m/s towards the first car.

What is the effect on the force of gravity between two objects if the mass of one object remains unchanged while the distance to
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer to the question is

B. It always decreases

Explanation:

To solve the question, we note that the foce of gravity is given by

F_G=\frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2} where

G= Gravitational constant

m₁ = mass of first object

m₂ = mass of second object

r = the distance between both objects

If the mass of one object remains unchanged while the distance to the second object and the second object’s mass are both doubled, we have

F_{G2} =\frac{Gm_1(2m_2)}{(2r)^2} = \frac{2}{4} \frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}

Therefore the gravitational force is halved. That is it will always decrease
