Andrea and Chuck are riding on a merry-go-round. Andrea rides on a horse at the outer rim of the circular platform, twice as far

from the center of the circular platform as Chuck, who rides on an inner horse. When the merry-go-round is rotating at a constant angular speed, Andrea's angular speed is which of the following?
(a) What is the relationship between their angular speeds?
(b) What is the relationship between their tangential speeds? Explain.

a) Their angular speeds are the same

b) Andrea's tangential speed is twice the value of Chuck's tangential speed

Explanation:

a)

The angular speed of Andrea and Chuck is the same.

Let's call \omega the angular speed at which the merry-go-round is rotating. We know that the angular speed is defined as:

\omega= \frac{2\pi}{T}

where

2 \pi is the angular displacement covered in one revolution

T is the period of revolution

The merry go round is a rigid body, so all its point cover the same angular displacement in the same time: this means that it doesn't matter where Andrea and Chuck are located along the merry-go-round, their angular speed will still be the same.

b)

For an object in circular motion, the tangential speed is given by

v=\omega r

where

\omega is the angular speed

r is the distance from the centre of rotation

Here let's call r_c the distance at which Chuck is rotating, so his tangential speed is

v_c = \omega r_c

Now we know that Andrea is rotating twice as far from the centre, so at a distance of

r_a = 2 r_c

So his tangential speed is

v_a = \omega r_a = \omega (2 r_c) = 2(\omega r_c) = 2 v_c

So, Andrea's tangential speed is twice the value of Chuck's tangential speed.

A 4.4 nC charge exerts a repulsive force of 36 mN on a second charge which is located
zhenek [66]

The magnitude and sign of the second charge will be + 8.6241×10⁻¹⁹ C. The principal of the Columb's law is used in the given problem.

<h3>What is Columb's law?</h3>

The force of attraction between two charges, according to Coulomb's law, is directly proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

Charges that are similar repel each other, whereas charges that are diametrically opposed attract each other.

They will repel, moving in opposite directions at the same speed. Because the magnitude and nature of the charge are the same.

The given data in the problem is;

q₁  is the charge 1 = 4.4 nC = 4.4 ×10⁻⁹ C

F is the repulsive force = 36 mN =36 ×10⁶ N

d is the distance = 0.70 m

The Coulomb force is found as;

\rm F = \frac{Kq_1q_2}{r^2}\\\\\ \rm 36\times 10^6 = \frac{9 \times 10^9 }{(0.7)^2} \times 4.4 \times 10^{-9} \times q_2\\\\\ q_2 = 8.6241  \times 10^{-19 } \ C

Hence, the magnitude and sign of the second charge will be + 8.6241×10⁻¹⁹ C.
