The net force on an object is:
F = ma
The only force acting on the speck of dust as it is lays on the CD is centripetal force given by:
F = (mv²)/r
Equating the two
ma = (mv²)/r
We get:
a = v²/r
v is the linear velocity in this case; however, we can calculate only the angular velocity with the given data. Therefore, we must use:
v = ωr; where
ω = 2πf; f is the rotations per second
f = 9500 / 60
f = 950/6
ω = 2π(950/6)
ω = (950π)/3
v = (950π)/3 × 0.12
v = 38π
a = (38π)²/0.12
a = 1.2 × 10⁵ m/s²
To express this in terms of gravitational acceleration, we divide by the value of gravitational acceleration, 9.81
a = 1.2 × 10⁴ g
Answer:
The kinetic energy of the more massive ball is greater by a factor of 2.
Explanation:
By conservation of energy, we know that the initial energy = final energy. At first, the balls are dropped from a height with no initial velocity so their initial energy is all potential energy. When they reach the bottom, all their energy is kinetic energy. So all of their energy is changed from potential to kinetic energy. This means that the ball with greater potential energy will have a greater kinetic energy.
Potential energy = mgh. Since g = gravity is a constant and h = height is the same, the only difference is mass. Since mass is directly proportional to potential energy, the greater the mass, the greater the potential energy, so the more massive ball has a greater initial potential energy and will have a greater kinetic energy at the bottom.
Additionally, let B1 = lighter ball with mass m and let B2 = heavier ball with mass m2. Since we know that intial potential energy = final kinetic energy. We can rewrite it as potential energy = kinetic energy = mass * gravity constant * height. For B1, it is mgh and for B2 it is 2mgh, so B2's kinetic energy is twice that of B1.

To determine the displacement, since we are given the potential energy, we use the equation for potential energy. For a spring, it is one-half the product of the spring constant and the square of the displacement. We do as follows:
PE = kx^2/2
5 Nm = 50N/m (x^2)
x = 0.32 m
Therefore, the displacement would be 0.32 m.
