An athlete prepares to throw a 2.0-kilogram discus. His arm is 0.75 meters long. He spins around several times with the discus a

t the end of his out-stretched arm so that the discus reaches a velocity of 5.0 m/s. What is the centripetal force acting on the discus?

The centripetal force acting on ball will be = mass x radial acceleration
radial acceleration = v²/radius of the discuss performing circular motion
                              =  5²/0.75 = 33.33 m/s²

Therefore, centripetal force = mass x radial acceleration = 2 x 33.33
                                                                                          = 66.66 N.

Kellie jogs 6.0 km in 54 minutes, then 1.0 km in 16 minutes. What is her average speed in km/min please show your work
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Vprom = 0.00347[km/min]

Explanation:

We can calculate each of the average speeds and then perform the overall average between the two speeds.

V1 = 6/54

V1 = 0.111[km/min]

V2 = 1/16

V2 = 0.0625[km/min]

V_{prom} = \frac{V_{1} + V_{2}}{2}  \\V_{prom} = \frac{0.1111 + 0.0625}{2}\\V_{prom} = 0.00347 [km/min]

in a circuit, where do electric charges go once they have left the voltage source and traveled along the wires?
S_A_V [24]
In an electric circuit, the free electrons are moving around. Since equal charges repel and opposite charges attract, the electrons move from the negatively charged to the positively charged pole of the voltage source.

Drop a paper a piece of thermocol and a piece of plastic from a height of 10 to 15 feet not the time for each object to hit the
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

Explanation:

According to Newton's law of gravitation , all objects should take same time to fall from same height , but it does not happen when we see a paper , a thermocol and a plastic paper to fall .

It happens due to air resistance . In case of paper , this is most pronounced , so it falls slowest . In case of plastic paper , the resistance is least so it falls fastest .

If we squeeze the piece of paper to make a lump so that it does not remain flat , it will fall the fastest , because in this case the air resistance on it becomes the least .
