A runner taking part in the 200 m dash must run around the end of a track that has a circular arc with a radius of curvature of

35 m. If he completes the 200 m dash in 30.0 s and runs at constant speed throughout the race, what is the magnitude of his centripetal acceleration (in m/s2) as he runs the curved portion of the track? m/s2

Answer

given,

distance = 200 m

radius of curvature = 35 m

time = 30 s

centripetal acceleration = ?

speed of the runner

$v = \dfrac{d}{t}$

$v = \dfrac{200}{35}$

v = 5.71 m/s

acceleration of the runner

$a_c = \dfrac{v^2}{r}$

$a_c = \dfrac{5.71^2}{35}$

$a_c = 0.931 m/s^2$

A farmer using sustainable agriculrural practices will a. use increased crop diversity and fewer off the farm resources in order

kati45 [8]

a. use increased crop diversity and fewer off the farm resources in order to reduce pressure on resources

Explanation:

A farmer using sustainable agricultural practices will use increased crop diversity and fewer off the farm resources in order to reduce dependency on other resources.

The major goal of sustainable agriculture is to cultivate plants and groom livestock in the best way that won't alter the environment.

This usually entail the cultivation of different crops.
Diversity of crops provides the means to sustain and retain soil fertility naturally without having to add fertilizers.
In animal husbandry, some of wastes are used on farm and the excesses from the farm are used to feed livestock.
Sustainable agriculture is a practice of self-reliant agriculture without infringing on the environment.

May you help me answer this

Firdavs [7]

1) See three Kepler laws below

2a) Acceleration is $2.2 m/s^2$

2b) Tension in the string: 27.4 N

3a) Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, potential energy is the energy due to the position

3b) The kinetic energy of the object is 2.25 J

Explanation:

1)

There are three Kepler's law of planetary motion:

1st law: the planets orbit the sun in elliptical orbits, with the Sun located at one of the 2 focii
2nd law: a segment connecting the Sun with each planet sweeps out equal areas in equal time intervals. A direct consequence of this is that, when a planet is further from the sun, it travels slower, and when it is closer to the sun, it travels faster
3rd law: the square of the period of revolution of a planet around the sun is directly proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its orbit. Mathematically, $T^2 \propto r^3$ , where T is the period of revolution and r is the semi-major axis of the orbit

2a)

To solve the problem, we have to write the equation of motions for each block along the direction parallel to the incline.

For the block on the right, we have:

$M g sin \theta - T = Ma$ (1)

where

$Mg sin \theta$ is the component of the weight of the block parallel to the incline, with

M = 8.0 kg (mass of the block)

$g=9.8 m/s^2$ (acceleration of gravity)

$\theta=35^{\circ}$

T = tension in the string

a = acceleration of the block

For the block on the left, we have similarly

$T-mg sin \theta = ma$ (2)

where

m = 3.5 kg (mass of the block)

$\theta=35^{\circ}$

From (2) we get

$T=mg sin \theta + ma$

Substituting into (1),

$M g sin \theta - mg sin \theta - ma = Ma$

Solving for a,

$a=\frac{M-m}{M+m}g sin \theta=\frac{8.0-3.5}{8.0+3.5}(9.8)(sin 35^{\circ})=2.2 m/s^2$

2b)

The tension in the string can be calculated using the equation

$T=mg sin \theta + ma$

where

m = 3.5 kg (mass of lighter block)

$g=9.8 m/s^2$

$\theta=35^{\circ}$

$a=2.2 m/s^2$ (acceleration found in part 2)

Substituting,

$T=(3.5)(9.8)(sin 35^{\circ}) +(3.5)(2.2)=27.4 N$

3a)

The kinetic energy of an object is the energy due to its motion. It is calculated as

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its speed

The potential energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its position in a gravitational field. For an object near the Earth's surface, it is given by

$U=mgh$

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the strength of the gravitational field

h is the heigth of the object relative to the ground

3b)

The kinetic energy of an object is given by

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its speed

For the object in this problem,

m = 500 g = 0.5 kg

v = 3 m/s

Substituting, we find its kinetic energy:

$K=\frac{1}{2}(0.5)(3)^2=2.25 J$

Describe the Milky Way. What does it contain?

BigorU [14]

It consists of our Solar system. Also, it contains many stars and alot of dust and gases. Our milky way is a galaxy full of amazing stuff, many stars blow up and cause auroras in the sky. If you go to watch the aurora borealis(northern lights) , its amazing and beautiful. The sky turns green and blue and the stars appear.

A transport plane takes off from a level landing field with two gliders in tow, one behind the other. The mass of each glider is

velikii [3]

Answer:

(a) Length =136.58 m

(b) T=5995 N

Explanation:

for the glider in the back

T - 1900 = 700 a

for the glider in front

12000-T -1900 = 700a

add equations

12000-3800 = 1400 a

a=5.85 m/s^2

v^2 = v0^2 + 2 a x

40^2 = 2*5.85*x

Length =136.58 m

b) plug the a back into one of the previous formula

T - 1900 = 700*5.85

T=5995 N
