Answer:
<em>The centripetal acceleration would increase by a factor of 4</em>
<em>Correct choice: B.</em>
Explanation:
<u>Circular Motion</u>
The circular motion is described when an object rotates about a fixed point called center. The distance from the object to the center is the radius. There are other magnitudes in the circular motion like the angular speed, tangent speed, and centripetal acceleration. The formulas are:
If the speed is doubled and the radius is the same, then
The centripetal acceleration would increase by a factor of 4
Correct choice: B.
Answer: The force constant k is 10600 kg/s^2
Step by step:
Use the law of energy conservation. When the elevator hits the spring, it has a certain kinetic and a potential energy. When the elevator reaches the point of still stand the kinetic and potential energies have been transformed to work performed by the elevator in the form of friction (brake clamp) and loading the spring.
Let us define the vertical height axis as having two points: h=2m at the point of elevator hitting the spring, and h=0m at the point of stopping.
The total energy at the point h=2m is:
The total energy at the point h=0m is:
The two Energy values are to be equal (by law of energy conservation), which allows us to determine the only unknown, namely the force constant k:
Answer:
230 N
Explanation:
At the lowest position , the velocity is maximum hence at this point, maximum support force T is given by the branch.
The swinging motion of the ape on a vertical circular path , will require
a centripetal force in upward direction . This is related to weight as follows
T - mg = m v² / R
R is radius of circular path . m is mass of the ape and velocity is 3.2 m/s
T = mg - mv² / R
T = 8.5 X 9.8 + 8.5 X 3.2² / .60 { R is length of hand of ape. }
T = 83.3 + 145.06
= 228.36
= 230 N ( approximately )
Yes.....The continetal plates shifting would cause either disaster...
