Answer: a) The acceletarion is directed to the center on the turntable. b) 5 cm; ac= 0.59 m/s^2; 10 cm, ac=1.20 m/s^2; 14 cm, ac=1.66 m/s^2
Explanation: In order to explain this problem we have to consider teh expression of the centripetal accelartion for a circular movement, which is given by:
ac=ω^2*r where ω and r are the angular speed and teh radios of the circular movement.
w=2*π*f
We know that the turntable is set to 33 1/3 rev/m so
the frequency 33.33/60=0.55 Hz
then w=2*π*0.55=3.45 rad/s
Finally the centripetal acceleration at differents radii results equal:
r= 0.05 m ac=3.45^2*0.05=0.50 m/s^2
r=0.1 ac=3.45^2*0.1=1.20 m/s^2
r=0.14 ac=3.45^2*0.14=1.66 m/s^2
Choices 'a', 'c', and 'd' are true.
In choice 'b', I'm not sure what it means when it says that masses
are 'balanced'. To me, masses are only balanced when they're on
a see-saw, or on opposite ends of a rope that goes over a pulley.
Maybe the statement means that the mass of the nucleus and the
mass of the electron cloud are equal. This is way false. It takes
more than 1,800 electrons to make the mass of ONE proton or
neutron, and the most complex atom in nature only has 92 electrons
in it. So there's no way that the masses of the nucleus and the electrons
in one atom could ever be anywhere near equal.
Answer:
Capacitance is 0.572×10⁻¹⁰ Farad
Explanation:
Radius = R₁ = 6.25 cm = 6.25×10⁻² m
Radius = R₂ = 15 cm = 15×10⁻² m
Dielectric constant = k = 4.8
Electric constant = ε₀ = 8.854×10⁻¹² F/m
ε/ε₀=k
ε=kε₀

∴ Capacitance is 0.572×10⁻¹⁰ Farad
Answer:
When the same amount of heat is added to cold sand and cold water, the temperature change of sand will be higher because of its lower specific heat capacity.
What is specific heat capacity?
Specific heat capacity is the quantity
of heat required to raise a unit mass of
a substance by 1 kelvin.
Specific heat capacity of water and sand
{<em>refer to the above attachment}</em>
Δθ = Q/mc
Thus, for an equal mass of water and sand, when the same amount of heat is added to cold sand and cold water, the temperature change of sand will be higher because of its lower specific heat capacity.
