The way that scientists ensure that data is reliable Clear Explanation
That would be reflection.
To develop this problem, it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the description of the movement through the kinematic trajectory equations, which include displacement, velocity and acceleration.
The trajectory equation from the motion kinematic equations is given by

Where,
a = acceleration
t = time
= Initial velocity
= initial position
In addition to this we know that speed, speed is the change of position in relation to time. So

x = Displacement
t = time
With the data we have we can find the time as well




With the equation of motion and considering that we have no initial position, that the initial velocity is also zero then and that the acceleration is gravity,





Therefore the vertical distance that the ball drops as it moves from the pitcher to the catcher is 1.46m.
Answer:
Answer is D.......Falling water turns a turbine that helps generate electricity.
Explanation:
Hydropower plants capture the energy of falling water to generate electricity. A turbine converts the kinetic energy of falling water into mechanical energy. Then a generator converts the mechanical energy from the turbine into electrical energy.
Answer:
(a) ω = 1.57 rad/s
(b) ac = 4.92 m/s²
(c) μs = 0.5
Explanation:
(a)
The angular speed of the merry go-round can be found as follows:
ω = 2πf
where,
ω = angular speed = ?
f = frequency = 0.25 rev/s
Therefore,
ω = (2π)(0.25 rev/s)
<u>ω = 1.57 rad/s
</u>
(b)
The centripetal acceleration can be found as:
ac = v²/R
but,
v = Rω
Therefore,
ac = (Rω)²/R
ac = Rω²
therefore,
ac = (2 m)(1.57 rad/s)²
<u>ac = 4.92 m/s²
</u>
(c)
In order to avoid slipping the centripetal force must not exceed the frictional force between shoes and floor:
Centripetal Force = Frictional Force
m*ac = μs*R = μs*W
m*ac = μs*mg
ac = μs*g
μs = ac/g
μs = (4.92 m/s²)/(9.8 m/s²)
<u>μs = 0.5</u>
