The centripetal acceleration is responsible for the artificial gravity because the acceleration of an object moving in constant circular motion causing from net external force is called centripetal acceleration. It defines to the center or seeking the center.

Given the following:

Cylindrical space station diameter           = 275 meters; 137.5 meters for the radius

Standard gravity                                       = 9.80665 m/s²

 

Using the formula:

w² x r =g

w² = g / r

w² = 9.80665 m/s² / 137.5 m

w² = 9.80665 m/s² / 137.5 m

w² = 0.0713 s²

Then take the roots

w = 0.267 this is radians per second / 2 x (3.1416 which is the pi)

w = 0.0424 rps convert to rpm

w = 0.0424 r/s (1minute / 60 seconds)

w = 7.08 x 10⁻⁴ revolutions per minute

A car and a train move together along straight, parallel paths with the same constant cruising speed v(initial). At t=0 the car
kogti [31]

Answer:

t_1 = \frac{v_i}{a_i}

t_2 = \frac{v_i}{a_i}

Δd = v_it_1 = v_i^2/a_i

Explanation:

As v(t) = v_i + at, when the car is making full stop, v(t_1) = 0 . a = -a_i . Therefore,

0 = v_i - a_it_1\\v_i = a_it_1\\t_1 = \frac{v_i}{a_i}

Apply the same formula above, with v(t_2) = v_i and a = a_i, and the car is starting from 0 speed,  we have

v_i = 0 + a_it_2\\t_2 = \frac{v_i}{a_i}

As s(t) = vt + \frac{at^2}{2}. After t = t_1 + t_2, the car would have traveled a distance of

s(t) = s(t_1) + s(t_2)\\s(t_1) = (v_it_1 - \frac{a_it_1^2}{2})\\ s(t_2) = \frac{a_it_2^2}{2}

Hence s(t) = (v_it_1 - \frac{a_it_1^2}{2}) + \frac{a_it_2^2}{2}

As t_1 = t_2 we can simplify s(t) = v_it_1

After t time, the train would have traveled a distance of s(t) = v_i(t_1 + t_2) = 2v_it_1

Therefore, Δd would be 2v_it_1 - v_it_1 = v_it_1 = v_i^2/a_i

vovangra [49]

Answer

Hi,

In a chemical equation, chemicals that react are the reactants, while chemicals that are produced are the products/by products. Both sides of the equation must be balanced.

Explanation

When writing a chemical equation, reactants reacts to produce products. For example in the equation for formation of water, hydrogen combines with oxygen as 2H₂ +O₂→2H₂O where the first part before the arrow represent the reactants and the next part after the arrow are the products. Reactants are on the left where as products are on the right.Coefficient 2, in this cases is used for balancing the equation.

Good luck!
