m = mass of the penny

r = distance of the penny from the center of the turntable or axis of rotation

w = angular speed of rotation of turntable

F = centripetal force experienced by the penny

centripetal force "F" experienced by the penny of "m" at distance "r" from axis of rotation is given as

F = m r w²

in the above equation , mass of penny "m"  and angular speed "w" of the turntable is same at all places. hence the centripetal force directly depends on the radius .

hence greater the distance from center , greater will be the centripetal force to remain in place.  

So at the edge of the turntable , the penny experiences largest centripetal force to remain in place.

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

The answer is "5.53 \ \frac{m}{s}"

Explanation:

apply the formula for calculating the average velocity to the relative air

V_{PG} =V_{PA}+V_{AG}

\Rightarrow  V_{PA} = V_{PG} -V_{AG}

Given value:

V_{AG} = -2 \ \frac{m}{s}

V_{PG} =3.53

\Rightarrow  V_{PA} = 3.53 - (-2) \\\\\Rightarrow  V_{PA} = 3.53 +2 \\\\\Rightarrow  V_{PA} = 5.53  \\\\

The final answer is "5.53 \ \frac{m}{s}" in the south-east direction.

1. A sprinter races in the 100 meter dash. It takes him 10 second to reach the finish line
poizon [28]

Answer:

v = 10 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance covered by a sprinter, d = 100 m

Time taken by him to reach the finish line, t = 10 s

We need to find his average velocity. We know that velocity is equal to the distance covered divided by time taken. So,

v = d/t

v=\dfrac{100\ m}{10\ s}\\\\v=10\ m/s

Hence, his average velocity is 10 m/s.

A car mass of 1.2 x 10 kilograms starts from rest and attains a speed of 20 meters/seconds in 5 seconds. What net force acted on
lorasvet [3.4K]

Net force on the car=F=4.8 x 10³ N

Explanation:

mass of car= 1.2 x 10³ Kg

initial velocity= Vi=0

Final velocity= Vf= 20 m/s

time = t= 5 s

Using kinematic equation,

Vf= Vi + at

20= 0 + a (5)

5 a=20

a= 20/5

a= 4 m/s²

Now force is given by F = ma

F= 1.2 x 10³ (4)

F=4.8 x 10³ N

The metal cases of electrical appliances are connected to an earth wire.Which statement is not correct?A The live wire may becom
labwork [276]

Given that metal cases of electrical appliances are connected to the wire, let's select the statement which is not correct from the list of statements.

The earth wire is used to protect you and help reduce the risk of receiving an electric shock. The earth wire reduces the risk of electric shock by creating a path for a fault or lose current to flow to the Earth.

The Live wire may become loose and touch the metal case. In this case, the earth wire will channel the fault current to the earth thereby reducing the risk of electric shock.

If the metal case becomes live, the earth wire conducts current to the ground. This helps prevent electric shock from the metal case.

The Earth wire has low or no resistance. It is always made of copper.

It provides a low resistance path to the ground.

Therefore, the statement ''the earth wire needs to have high resistance'' is NOT current.

ANSWER:

C. The earth wire needs to have a high reistance.
