A child is riding a merry-go-round, which has an instantaneous angular speed of 1.25 rad/s and an angular acceleration of 0.745

rad/s2. the child is standing 4.65 m from the center of the merry-go-round. what angle does the acceleration of the child make with the tangential direction

w = instantaneous angular speed = 1.25 rad/s

r = radius = 4.65 m

α = angular acceleration = 0.745 rad/s²

centripetal acceleration is given as

a_{c} = rw²

a_{c} = (4.65 ) (1.25)² = 7.27 m/s²

tangential acceleration is given as

a_{t} = rα

a_{t} =4.65 x 0.745 = 3.46 m/s²

angle is given as

\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{a_{c}}{a_{t}})

\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{7.27}{3.46})

\theta = 64.5 deg

A golf ball is hit with a golf club. While the ball flies through the air, which forces act on the ball? Neglect air resistance.
34kurt

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the equation related to the Gravitational Force, the equation describes that

F = \frac{GMm}{r^2}

Where,

G = Gravitational Universal Constant

M = Mass of Earth (or Bigger star)

m = Mass of Object  (or smallest star)

r = Radius

From the statement we know that once the impact is made, the golf ball is subjected to the forces that are exerted in nature. Since the air resistance, which would represent the drag force, is ignored. Only the forces related to gravity remain.

The gravitational force carries 'pushes' or 'attracts' the body towards the earth, while the speed decreases as it reaches its maximum height.

When the ball has reached its maximum height only the force of gravity begins to act on it, generating the attraction to the earth in parabolic motion.

Therefore the correct answer is B.

Assume this is an acceleration graph, where the X axis represents time in seconds and the Y axis represent velocity in m/s. Whic
Vilka [71]

Answer:

D) Acceleration is positive and increasing.

Explanation:

Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity per unit time; in formulas:

a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}

where \Delta v is the variation of velocity and \Delta t is the variation in time.

The graph shows the velocity vs the time of a moving object. We can see that \Delta v is the increment on the y-axis, while \Delta t is the increment on the x axis: therefore, the ratio \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} is the slope of the curve. In fact, in a velocity-time graph, the slope of the curve corresponds to the acceleration of the object.

In this particular graph, we see that the slope of the curve continues to increase: therefore, the acceleration is positive (because the slope is positive, since the velocity is increasing) and increasing (because the slope is increasing).
