A 45.2-kg person is on a barrel ride at an amusement park. She stands on a platform with her back to the barrel wall. The 3.74-m

eter diameter barrel spins rapidly in a circle, making a revolution every 1.65 seconds. Determine the net force (in N) acting on her. Use g = 9.8 m/s/s.

Answer:

  • <u><em>1,230N</em></u>

Explanation:

<u>1. Name of the variables:</u>

   f:frequency\\\\ \omega:angular\text{ }speed\\\\ a_c:centripetal\text{ }acceleration\\\\ F_c:centripetal\text{ }force\\ \\ m:mass\\ \\ d:diameter\\ \\ r:radius\\ \\ g:gravitational\text{ }acceleration

<u>2. Formulae:</u>

         f=\dfrac{number\text{ }of\text{ }revolutions}{time}

          \omega=2\pi f

          a_c=\omega^2 r

           F_c=m\times a_c

<u>3. Solution (calculations)</u>

       f=\dfrac{1}{1.65s}=0.\overline{60}s^{-1}

       \omega=2\pi\times0.\overline{60}\approx 3.808rad/s

      a_c=(3.808rad/s)^2\times (3.74/2m)=27.12m/s^2

      F_c=45.2kg\times27.12m/s^2=1,225.67N\approx 1,230N

A scientist observes rock masses that have moved past each other in opposite horizontal directions. Which feature
Reil [10]

Answer:

C. strike-slip fault

Explanation:

The scientist must have observed a strike- slip fault.

A fault is an evidence of brittle deformation of the crust in the presence of applied stress on earth materials. Here, the earth material is the rock subjected to tension.

Where a fault occurs, there must have been movement between two blocks of rocks. The direction of movement helps us to delineate the fault type.

  • When two blocks moves past each other horizontally, it is a strike-slip fault like rubbing your palms together.
  • When a block moves in the direction of the dip, it forms a dip-slip fault which results in a fault-block mountain characterized by graben and horst systems.

Option A, Plateau is a table landform usually a mountain with flat peak.

Option B is a bowl shaped stratigraphic pattern in which the youngest sequence is at the core of the strata or a fold.

So, the most fitting option is C, a strike-slip fault.

You are driving home from school steadily at for 180 km. It then begins to rain and you slow to You arrive home after driving 4.
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Explanation:

Question is incomplete

Assuming the question you have asked is

You are driving home from school steadily at 95 km/h for 180 km. It then begins to rain and you slow to 65 km/h. You arrive home after driving 4.5 h.

given,

speed of 95 km/h for 180 km

due to rain

speed is reduced to 65 km/h

distance traveled in 4.5 hour

time taken to travel 180 km

d = s x t

t = \dfrac{180}{95}

     t = 1.9 hr

distance traveled in time, t' = 4.5-1.9 = 2.6 hr

Speed of vehicle = 65 Km/h

d' = s x t'

d' = 65 x 2.6

d'= 169 Km

total distance your hometown from school

D = d + d'

D = 180 + 169

D = 349 Km

A spherical shell contains three charged objects. The first and second objects have a charge of − 14.0 nC and 31.0 nC , respecti
allsm [11]

Answer:

The charge on the third object is − 21.7nC

Explanation:

From Gauss's Law

Φ = Q/ε₀

where;

Φ is the total electric flux through the shell = − 533 N⋅m²/C

Q is the total charge Q in the shell = ?

ε₀ is the permittivity of free space = 8.85 x 10⁻¹²

From this equation; Φ = Q/ε₀

Q = Φ * ε₀ = − 533 * 8.85 x 10⁻¹²

Q =  −4.7 X 10⁻⁹ C = -4.7nC

Q = q₁ + q₂ + q₃

− 4.7nC = − 14.0 nC + 31.0 nC + q₃

− 4.7nC − 17nC = q₃

− 21.7nC = q₃

Therefore, the charge on the third object is − 21.7nC
