1) Beth rode the Flying Saucer ride at her favorite amusement park. The ride hung from a rod and swung back and forth while simu

ltaneously spinning in a circle. What type of motion did Beth experience?
A) Translational motion
B) Spinning motion
C) Rotational motion
D) Translational and rotational motion


2) Jill and Scott both road their bikes for 30 minutes. Jill traveled 5 kilometers and Scott traveled 10. Calculate each person's speed and tell who rode faster. (s=d/t)

A) Scott had the faster speed since he rode at 10 km/h and Jill was riding at 5 km/h
B) Scott had the faster speed since he rode at 20 k/h while Jill only traveled 10 km/h.
C) Jill was traveling faster. She was riding at a speed of 10 km/h while Scott was traveling at 20 km/h.
D) Both Jill and Scott were traveling at the same speed since they both rode their bikes for 30 minutes.

3) James and Haley went to the speedway to watch cars race around an oval track. One car traveled at a constant speed for the entire race. James told Haley that the car was accelerating during race, but Haley said James was wrong since the car traveled at a constant speed. Who was right and why?

A) Haley was right since the car didn't win the race it was not accelerating.
B) Haley was right because the car traveled at a constant speed. Acceleration is a change in velocity.
C) James was right since the car changed direction during the race.
D) James was right because the car was a race car and all race cars accelerate during a race.

#1

Since Beth rode the Flying saucer ride which is spinning on its axis while axis is moving to and fro as well, so here Beth will experience two motions in this case

(i) Spinning motion

(ii) Rotational motion

#2

Jill and Scott both traveled for 30 min

So time of motion for both is 0.5 h as we know that 1 h = 60 min

Now from the formula of speed we know that

speed = \frac{distance}{time}

Speed of Jill

v_1 = \frac{5}{0.5} = 10 km/h

speed of Scott

v_2 = \frac{10}{0.5} = 20 km/h

so correct answer is

B) Scott had the faster speed since he rode at 20 k/h while Jill only traveled 10 km/h.

#3

Since we know that <em>acceleration is rate of change in velocity</em>

So here we can say that every motion where velocity changes with time then it is an accelerated motion.

Now change in velocity occurs when either the magnitude will change or its direction will change because here velocity is a vector quantity and it will change with magnitude and direction both.

so here due to oval path the direction of velocity will changes at many points and hence it will be an accelerated motion.

so correct answer is

<em>C) James was right since the car changed direction during the race.</em>

Answer:

1. Option D) Translational and rotational motion.

2. Option B) Scott had the faster speed since he rode at 20 k/h while Jill only traveled 10 km/h.

3. Option C) James was right since the car changed direction during the race.

Explanation:

1. Thinking process:

The object in question is a flying saucer. So there is an element of rotational motion. Next, the saucer is swung. This means that there are two motions - rotational and translational.

2. Jill = 10 km/h

    Sott = 20 km/h

Hence Scott was faster

3. An object is accelerating when three things take place:

  • the velocity of the object is changing.
  • the direction of the object is changing, e.g. car on a circular race course
  • both the direction and acceleration are changing.

Thus, according to the definition above, James is correct.

Define friction State the law of frictionGive two factors that may affect friction
umka21 [38]

Friction:

Friction is the resistive force that acts on the body in a direction opposite to the direction of motion of the same object.

Laws of friction:

1. The frictional force acting on the object is proportional to the normal force acting on the object.

For example, if the object of mass m is moving along the horizontal surface, the normal force acting on the object is mg.

Thus, the frictional force acting on the object is,

\begin{gathered} F_r\propto F_N \\ F_r=\mu F_N \end{gathered}

where F_N is the normal force acting on the object,

\mu\text{ is the coefficient of friction}

The diagrammatic representation of the frictional force acting on the object is,

2. The frictional force acting on the object depends upon the nature of the surface in contact with the object.

3. The frictional force does not depend upon the area of contact of an object with the surface.

4. The kinetic friction acting on the object is independent of the velocity of the object.

5. The coefficient of static friction is more than the coefficient of kinetic friction.

Two factors on which the frictional force depends are:

1. The frictional force depends on the adhesion between the two bodies in contact.

2. The frictional force acting on the depends upon the roughness of the surface on which the object is moving.

A circuit contains two devices that are connected in parallel. If the resistance of one of these devices is 12 ohms and the resi
finlep [7]

<u>Answer</u>

3 Ohms

<u>Explanation</u>

when the resistors are in series, the resistance in the circuit increases. For example, if two resistors, R1 and R2 are in series, the combined resistance is R1+R2.

When connected in parallel, the total resistance is the reciprocal of (1/R1 + 1/R2)

In this case the resistors are in parallel.

Total resistance = (1/12 + 1/4)⁻¹

= (1/3)⁻¹

= 3 Ohms

A 90. 0-kg ice hockey player hits a 0. 150-kg puck, giving the puck a velocity of 45. 0 m/s. If both are initially at rest and i
Mice21 [21]

The distance traveled by the hockey player is 0.025 m.

<h3>The principle of conservation of linear momentum;</h3>
  • The principle of conservation of linear momentum states that, the total momentum of an isolated system is always conserved.

The final velocity of the hockey play is calculated by applying the principle of conservation of linear momentum;

m_1v_1 = m_2 v_2\\\\v_1 = \frac{m_2 v_2}{m_1} \\\\v_1 = \frac{0.150 \times 45}{90} \\\\v_1 = 0.075 \ m/s

The time taken for the puck to reach 15 m is calculated as follows;

t = \frac{d}{v} \\\\t = \frac{15\ m}{45 \ m/s} \\\\t = 0.33 \ s

The distance traveled by the hockey player at the calculated time is;

d = vt\\\\d = 0.075 \ m/s \ \times 0.33 \ s\\\\d = 0.025 \ m

Mature salmon swim upstream, returning to spawn at their birthplace. During the arduous trip they leap vertically upward over wa
Katarina [22]

Answer: minimum speed of launch must be 7.45m/s

Explanation:

Given the following:

Height or distance (s) = 2.83m

The final velocity(Vf) at maximum height = 0

Upward motion, acceleration due to gravity(g) us negative = -9.8m/s^2

From the 3rd equation of motion:

V^2 = u^2 - 2gs

Where V = final velocity

u = initial velocity

Therefore, u = Vi

u = √Vf^2 - 2gs

u = √0^2 - 2(-9.8)(2.83)

u = √0 + 55.468

u = √55.468

u = 7.4476 m/s

u = 7.45m/s
