What occurs any time an object speeds up, slows down, or changes directions

Physics

Svetlanka [38]3 years ago

Whenever the motion of an object <em><u>changes</u></em> . . . speeding up, or slowing down,
or changing direction . . . that change is called "<em><u>acceleration</u></em>".  Acceleration is
produced by force on the object. 

If there is <em><u>no force</u></em> on the object, then there is no acceleration.  That means that
its motion <em><u>doesn't change</u></em>.  The object remains in constant, uniform motion ...
moving with steady speed, in a straight line. 

No force is necessary to <em><u>keep</u></em> an object moving, only to <em><u>change</u></em> its motion.

When a hammer thrower releases her ball, she is aiming to maximize the distance from the starting ring. Assume she releases the
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

The angular velocity is 15.37 rad/s

Solution:

As per the question:

\theta = 54.6^{\circ}

Horizontal distance, x = 30.1 m

Distance of the ball from the rotation axis is its radius, R = 1.15 m

Now,

To calculate the angular velocity:

Linear velocity, v = \sqrt{\frac{gx}{sin2\theta}}

v = \sqrt{\frac{9.8\times 30.1}{sin2\times 54.6}}

v = \sqrt{\frac{9.8\times 30.1}{sin2\times 54.6}}

v = \sqrt{\frac{294.98}{sin109.2^{\circ}}} = 17.67\ m/s

Now,

The angular velocity can be calculated as:

v = \omega R

Thus

\omega = \frac{v}{R} = \frac{17.67}{1.15} = 15.37\ rad/s

Explain how wavelength and frequency are important in determining the type of light.
asambeis [7]
It is important to note that the electromagnetic spectrum has a variety of wavelength and frequency of light in it. Some lights we can see, while others are not visual to our naked eye. It is actually very important to determine the kind of light as different lights have different wavelengths and frequencies. some lights are of very high frequency like the gamma rays, while others are of far lower frequency. <span />
