Which arrow indicates the direction of centripetal force on the object, represented by the black dot ?

Physics
1 answer:
svetoff [14.1K]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

<em>Direction C</em>

Explanation:

<u>Centripetal Force </u>

It's the force that makes an object to follow a circular (and generally a curved) path. Its direction is always towards the center of the circle, perpendicular to the tangent velocity. The diagram shows 4 possible options for the centripetal force acting on the object represented as a black dot. The correct option is the direction marked as C since it points inwards and ties the object to its circular motion.

Using the rules for significant figures, what do you get when you multiply 67.6 by 1.2?
Paul [167]

Answer:

B. 81

Explanation:

When you multiply two numbers, round the answer to the least number of significant figures available.  67.6 has three significant figures, and 1.2 has two significant figures.  So we round to two significant figures.

What is the average speed of a car that travels 40 mph for 1 hour and 60 mph in another hour?
svetoff [14.1K]

Average speed = (total distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

-- Traveling at 40 mph for 1 hour, the distance covered is 40 miles.

-- Traveling at 60 mph for 1 hour, the distance covered is 60 miles.

-- Total distance covered = (40 miles) + (60 miles) = 100 miles

-- Total time = (1 hour) + (1 hour)  =  2 hours

-- Average speed = (100 miles) / (2 hours)

<em>Average speed = 50 miles per hour</em>

How fast must a 1.88-9 ping-pong ball move (in m/s) in order to have the same kinetic energy as a 230.5 g baseball moving
Andrew [12]

Explanation:

KE = KE

½ mv² = ½ mv²

½ (1.88 g) v² = ½ (230.5 g) (58.5 m/s)²

v = 648 m/s

An electron emitted from a filament is travelling at 1.5 x 105 m/s when it enters an acceleration of an electron gun in a televi
Crank

Answer:

The acceleration of the electron is 1.457 x 10¹⁵ m/s².

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the emitted electron, u = 1.5 x 10⁵ m/s

distance traveled by the electron, d = 0.01 m

final velocity of the electron, v = 5.4 x 10⁶ m/s

The acceleration of the electron is calculated as;

v² = u² + 2ad

(5.4 x 10⁶)² = (1.5 x 10⁵)² + (2 x 0.01)a

(2 x 0.01)a = (5.4 x 10⁶)² - (1.5 x 10⁵)²

(2 x 0.01)a = 2.91375 x 10¹³

a = \frac{2.91375 \ \times \ 10^{13}}{2 \ \times \ 0.01} \\\\a = 1.457 \ \times \ 10^{15} \ m/s^2

Therefore, the acceleration of the electron is 1.457 x 10¹⁵ m/s².

A major obstacle to developing a good human relations skill is that : few person have a common interest a communication between two people will be a lot easier if they have common interest because a person tend to like other person that are similar to him (whether it's race, background , or common interest).
