5. Left

Explanation: centripetal acceleration is the acceleration that acts on an object which is moving by circular motion. The direction of the centripetal acceleration is always towards the centre of the circular trajectory: that means that for a car following a bend, the direction of the centripetal acceleration is towards the centre of the bend, and so it is towards the left if the bend is towards the left, and towards the right if the bend is towards the right.

In this example, the road in this bend is going to the left, so centripetal acceleration is toward the left as well.


6. Greater

Explanation: Inertia represents the tendency of an object at staying in motion if it is moving, and at staying at rest if the object is at rest. We can also see inertia as a measure of "how difficult it is" to put an object in motion. Due to this definition, we can also notice that inertia is directly proportional to the mass of the object: the greater the mass, the greater the inertia, because it is more difficult to put the object in motion.

So, in this example, the greater the boulder's mass, the greater inertia it has.


7. Direction

Explanation: displacement is a vector quantity that represents the difference in position between an object and a starting point. Because it is a vector, displacement consists of two elements:

- A magnitude, which is equal to the object's distance from the starting point

- A direction, again compared to the starting point

So, displacement depends on the object's distance and direction from the starting point.


8. Negative

Explanation: acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity; in formula:

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where v is the final velocity, u the initial velocity, and t the time taken to accelerate from u to v. From the formula, we see that:

- When the final velocity (v) is greater than the initial velocity (u), acceleration is positive

- When the final velocity (v) is smaller than the initial velocity (u), acceleration is negative

In this problem, we have a car slowing down: it means that the final velocity is smaller than the initial velocity, so in this case acceleration is negative.

Which describes the movement of a fluid during convection?
andre [41]
The hot molecules around the heat source expands, becomes less dense, then rises. When it rises, the cooler molecules moves down to take its place. This can occur in fluid, which include gas or liquid.

What is the function of hammer and anvil in human ear
MArishka [77]

Answer:

Vibrations of the eardrum are in turn translated into oscillations of tiny bones (ossicles) found within the middle ear. The Hammer, Anvil, and Stirrup magnify the oscillations and relay this information to the chamber of the inner ear.

Why is tornadoes hitting the east coast of the USA?
OLga [1]

Answer:

The outbreak of tornadoes that tore across the Gulf and the East Coast Tuesday and Wednesday was unusual for two reasons. For one thing, the severe weather encompassed a significant swath of the country. For another, winter is the least likely time for tornadic thunderstorms.

Explanation:

The outbreak of tornadoes that tore across the Gulf and the East Coast Tuesday and Wednesday was unusual for two reasons. For one thing, the severe weather encompassed a significant swath of the country. For another, winter is the least likely time for tornadic thunderstorms.

And yet tornadoes are an expected part of life in the United States—especially in the multi-state area known as Tornado Alley. (Florida, too, sees a disproportionately high number of tornadoes, because of its frequent thunderstorms.) The United States gets more tornadoes, by far, than any other place on the planet. It averages about 1,250 twisters a year. Canada, which sees about 100 tornadoes per year, is a “distant second,” according to the National Centers for Environmental Information.

A 10-ft ladder is leaning against a wall. If the top of the ladder slides down the wall at a rate of 2 ft/sec, how fast is the b
netineya [11]

Answer: The bottom of the ladder is moving at 3.464ft/sec

Explanation:

The question defines a right angle triangle. Therefore using pythagorean

h^2 + l^2 = 10^2 = 100 ...eq1

dh/dt = -2ft/sec

dl/ dt = ?

Taking derivatives of time in eq 1 on both sides

2hdh/dt + 2ldl/dt = 0 ....eq2

Putting l = 5ft in eq2

h^ + 5^2 = 100

h^2 = 25 = 100

h Sqrt(75)

h = 8.66 ft

Put h = 8.66ft in eq2

2 × 8.66 × (-2) + 2 ×5 dl/dt

dl/dt = 17.32 / 5

dl/dt = 3.464ft/sec
