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

The weakest type of friction that occurs between solid surfaces is _____ friction
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Static, sliding, and rolling friction occur between solid surfaces. Static friction is strongest, followed by sliding friction, and then rolling friction, which is weakest. Fluid friction occurs in fluids, which are liquids or gases.

Scientific work is currently underway to determine whether weak oscillating magnetic fields can affect human health. For example
iragen [17]

Given Information:

Magnetic field = B = 1×10⁻³ T

Frequency = f = 72.5 Hz

Diameter of cell = d = 7.60 µm = 7.60×10⁻⁶ m

Required Information:

Maximum Emf = ?

Answer:

Maximum Emf = 20.66×10⁻¹² volts

Explanation:

The maximum emf generated around the perimeter of a cell in a field is given by

Emf = BAωcos(ωt)

Where A is the area, B is the magnetic field and ω is frequency in rad/sec

For maximum emf cos(ωt) = 1

Emf = BAω

Area is given by

A = πr²

A = π(d/2)²

A = π(7.60×10⁻⁶/2)²

A = 45.36×10⁻¹² m²

We know that,

ω = 2πf

ω = 2π(72.5)

ω = 455.53 rad/sec

Finally, the emf is,

Emf = BAω

Emf = 1×10⁻³*45.36×10⁻¹²*455.53

Emf = 20.66×10⁻¹² volts

Therefore, the maximum emf generated around the perimeter of the cell is 20.66×10⁻¹² volts

1. If 800 C of electric charge passed through a light bulb in 4 min; what is the mag
9966 [12]

The electric current passing through the bulb would be 3.3A

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Electric charge, q = 800C

Time, t = 4 min

           = 4 X 60 sec

           = 240 sec

Electric current, I = ?

We know,

Current  = \frac{Charge}{Time}

On substituting the value we get:

I = \frac{800}{4 X 60} \\\\I = 3.3A

Thus, the electric current passing through the bulb would be 3.3A
