Answer:

Centripetal acceleration

Explanation:

An object moving around a xirxular path maintains its route as a result of centripetal force. However, its acceleration is caused by centripetal acceleration. Despite centripetal acceleration not being among the choices, it is the right answer.

Centripetal acceleration helps an object that navigates around a circular path to accelerate while centripetal force enables the movement of an object around a circular path to move inwards. Momentum, given as one of the choices is product of mass and velocity while friction is the force opposing movement of an object around a surface.

Which of two factors influence the weight of an object due to gravitational pull?
densk [106]
The weight of an object when calculated by multiplying with the pull of the gravity is dependent on the mass of the object and the value of g. The value of g is constant however is still dependent on the distance of the object from the center of the Earth. Thus, the answers are <em>mass and distance. </em>

Jane, looking for tarzan, is running at top speed 5.3 m/s and grabs a vine hanging vertically from a tall tree in the jungle. ho
lutik1710 [3]

v₀ = initial speed as tarzan grabs the vine = 5.3 m/s

v = final speed as the tarzan reach the maximum height = 0 m/s

h = maximum height gained by the tarzan

m = mass of tarzan

using conservation of energy

initial kinetic energy = final kinetic energy + potential energy

(0.5) m v²₀ = (0.5) m v² + m g h

(0.5) v²₀ = (0.5) v² + g h

(0.5) (5.3)² = (0.5) (0)² + (9.8) h

h = 1.43 m

A car is traveling at 39.7 mi/h on a horizontal highway. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . If the coefficient of fricti
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

The minimum distance in which the car will stop is

x=167.38m

Explanation:

39.7\frac{mi}{h}*\frac{1km}{0.621371mi}*\frac{1000m}{1km}*\frac{1h}{3600s}=17.747\frac{m}{s}

∑F=m*a

∑F=u*m*g

The force of friction is the same value but in different direction of the force moving the car so it can stop so

F=m*a\\a=\frac{F}{m}\\a=\frac{u*m*g}{m}\\a=u*g\\a=0.096*-9.8\frac{m}{s^{2} }

a=-0.9408 \frac{m}{s^{2}}

v_{f}^{2}=v_{o}^{2}+2*a*(x_{f}-x_{o})\\v_{f}=0 \\x_{o}=0\\0=v_{o}^{2}+2*a*x_{f}\\x_{f}=\frac{v_{o}^{2}}{2*a} \\x_{f}=\frac{(-17.747\frac{m}{s})^{2}}{2*(-0.9408)} \\x_{f}=167.38m
