A snowball is rolling down a hill at 4.5 m/s and accumulating snow as it goes. Its diameter begins at 0.50 m and ends at the bot

tom of the hill at 2.5 m. What is the snowball's change in centripetal acceleration from the top of the hill and the bottom of the hill?

To find the change in centripetal acceleration, you should first look for the centripetal acceleration at the top of the hill and at the bottom of the hill.

The formula for centripetal acceleration is:
Centripetal Acceleration = v squared divided by r

where:
v = velocity, m/s
r= radium, m

assuming the velocity does not change:

at the top of the hill:
centripetal acceleration = (4.5 m/s^2) divided by 0.25 m
                                      = 81 m/s^2

at the bottom of the hill:
centripetal acceleration = (4.5 m/s^2) divided by 1.25 m
                                      = 16.2 m/s^2

to find the change in centripetal acceleration, take the difference of the two.
change in centripetal acceleration = centripetal acceleration at the top of the hill - centripetal acceleration at the bottom of the hill

= 81 m/s^2 - 16.2 m/s^2
= 64.8 m/s^2 or 65 m/s^2

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

The steps are outlined in the explanation below.

Explanation:

The average velocity is derived midpoint from the initial to the final velocity. Here is the proof:

Find the total displacement:

let the displacement be given by the letter s

Then since the average velocity is defined as:  v_{av}  = \frac{x - x_{0} }{t - t_{0} }

where t = final time

           t₀ = initial time

           v = final speed

           v₀ = initial time

where x denotes the position, then

v_{ave} = \frac{v+v_{0} }{2}

where v = \frac{dx}{dt} and dx = change in distance with respect to time.
