A ball on the end of a string is whirled around in a horizontal circle of radius 0.478 m. The plane of the circle is 1.02 m abov
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall find first the velocity of ball at the time when string breaks. Let it be v . During its fall on the ground , 1.02 m below, we use the formula

h = 1/2 gt² where t is time of fall .

1.02 = 1/2 x 9.8 x t²

t²= .2081

t = .456

During this time it travels horizontally at distance of 2.5 m with uniform velocity of v

v x .456 = 2.5

v  = 5.48 m /s

centripetal acceleration

= v² / r where r is radius of the circular path

= 5.48² / .478

= 62.82 m /s²

describe the relationship between the direction of the velocity vector and the direction of the acceleration for a body moving i
Xelga [282]

Answer:

a = v²/r

Explanation:

The acceleration of a body moving in a circular path is known as the centripetal acceleration. This is the acceleration of a body that keeps the body within the circular path. It is written in terms of the linear velocity v and the radius of the circle of rotation as shown;

a = v²/r where

v is the linear velocity

r is the radius

a is the centripetal acceleration

Two arrows are shot vertically upward. the second arrow is shot after the first one, but while the first is still on its way up.
Neko [114]
<span>Now that you know the time to reach its maximum height, you have enough information to find out the initial velocity of the second arrow. Here's what you know about it: its final velocity is 0 m/s (at the maximum height), its time to reach that is 2.8 seconds, but wait! it was fired 1.05 seconds later, so take off 1.05 seconds so that its time is 1.75 seconds, and of course gravity is still the same at -9.8 m/s^2. Plug those numbers into the kinematic equation (Vf=Vi+a*t, remember?) for 0=Vi+-9.8*1.75 and solve for Vi to get....... 17.15 m/s</span>

A 3kg book falls from a 2m tall bookshelf what is the speed <br><br> PICTURE included
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

39.2m/s

Explanation:

The potential energy the book has right before it falls is equal to the kinetic energy in falling.

PE = KE

mgh = (1/2)mv

2gh=v

v=(2)(9.81)(2)

v=39.24m/s

Scalars are used to solve projectile motion problems because they allow the analysis of one direction at a time for two-dimensio
Korolek [52]
The statement is false. Vectors are used to solve projectile motion problems because they allow the analysis of one direction at a time for two-dimensional motion. Scalar quantities can be used to analyze linear motion problem, but not projectile motion.
