A penny is placed on a rotating turntable. where on the turntable does the penny require the largest centripetal force to remain

in place?
Physics

Mama L [17]3 years ago

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.

On a typical clear day, the atmospheric electric field points downward and has a magnitude of approximately 103 N/C. Compare the
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

a) FE = 0.764FG

b) a = 2.30 m/s^2

Explanation:

a) To compare the gravitational and electric force over the particle you calculate the following ratio:

\frac{F_E}{F_G}=\frac{qE}{mg}              (1)

FE: electric force

FG: gravitational force

q: charge of the particle = 1.6*10^-19 C

g: gravitational acceleration = 9.8 m/s^2

E: electric field = 103N/C

m: mass of the particle = 2.2*10^-15 g = 2.2*10^-18 kg

You replace the values of all parameters in the equation (1):

\frac{F_E}{F_G}=\frac{(1.6*10^{-19}C)(103N/C)}{(2.2*10^{-18}kg)(9.8m/s^2)}\\\\\frac{F_E}{F_G}=0.764

Then, the gravitational force is 0.764 times the electric force on the particle

b)

The acceleration of the particle is obtained by using the second Newton law:

F_E-F_G=ma\\\\a=\frac{qE-mg}{m}

you replace the values of all variables:

a=\frac{(1.6*10^{-19}C)(103N/C)-(2.2*10^{-18}kg)(9.8m/s^2)}{2.2*10^{-18}kg}\\\\a=-2.30\frac{m}{s^2}

hence, the acceleration of the particle is 2.30m/s^2, the minus sign means that the particle moves downward.

A flat coil of wire is placed in a uniform magnetic field that is in the y-direction.
Kitty [74]

Answer:

The correct answer is c

Explanation:

Flow is defined by

        Ф =  B . A

bold letters indicate vectors.

The magnetic field is directed to the y axis, The area of ​​the coil is represented by a vector normal to the plane of the coil, so to have a flux

                i.i = j.j = k.k = 1

and the tori scalar products are zero

a) If the coil must be in the xy plane so that its normal vector is in the Z axis, so there is no flux

b) if the coil is in the plane yz the normal veto is in the x axis, so the flux is zero

C) If the coil is in XZ, the normal vector points in the y direction, usually the scalar product is one and there is a flux in this configuration

The correct answer is c

An object has a mass of 120 kg on the moon. What is the force of gravity acting on the object on the moon? A. 12.24 N B. 196 N C
Lady_Fox [76]
Correct answer: B
The force of gravity acting on the object on the moon can be found by multiplying its mass by the acceleration due to gravity on the moon. The acceleration due to gravity on the moon is a constant and is approximately 1.63m/s².
120kg×1.63m/s²=195.6kg.m/s²
kg.m/s²=N
<span>The force of gravity acting on the object on the moon would be of approximately 196N.</span>

What is the average power supplied by a 60.0 kg secretary running up a 4.0 m tall flight of stairs in 4.2 s?
Alchen [17]

A 60.0 kg secretary running up a 4.0 m tall flight of stairs in 4.2 s has an average power of 560 W (Option b).

<h3>What is power?</h3>

Power is the work done over a period of time.

A secretary with a mass (m) of 60.0 kg runs up a 4.0 m (d) tall flight of stairs. Given gravity (g) is 9.81 m/s², the work (W) done is:

W = m × g × d = 60.0 kg × 9.81 m/s² × 4.0 m = 2.35 × 10³ J

They do 2.4 × 10³ J of work in 4.2 s (t). The average power (P) is:

P = W / t = 2.35 × 10³ J / 4.2 s = 560 W

A 60.0 kg secretary running up a 4.0 m tall flight of stairs in 4.2 s has an average power of 560 W (Option b).
