Can a particle moving with instantaneous speed 3.00 m/s on a path with radius of curvature 2.00 m have an acceleration of magnit

ude 6.00 m/s2? (b) can it have an acceleration of magnitude 4.00 m/s2? in each case, if the answer is yes, explain how it can happen; if the answer is no, explain why not.

Circular acceleration has 2 components, the centripetal and tangential acceleration.

The formula for calculating the centripetal acceleration of a particle is:

a_{c} = v^2/r

Where v is the velocity or instantaneous speed and r is the radius.

a_{c}  = (3^2)/6 = 1.5 m/s^2

Assuming that the particle stays on the same circular path, another thing it can have is the tangential acceleration. While the centripetal acceleration is constant, tangential acceleration depends on the location of the particle in the circular path. So to answer A and B, yes we can have an acceleration of 6 and 4 respectively.

The end of a horizontal rope is attatched to a prong of an electricity driven tuning fork that vibrates at 100hz. The other end
Darina [25.2K]

here since string is attached with a mass of 2 kg

so here tension force in the rope is given as

T = mg

here we will have

T = 2(9.8) = 19.6 N

now we will have speed of wave given as

v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}

here we will have

v = \sqrt{\frac{19.6}{0.75\times 10^{-2}}}

v = 16.33 m/s

now we know that frequency is given as

F = 100 Hz

now wavelength is given as

\lambda = \frac{v}{F}

\lambda = \frac{16.33}{100} = 0.16 m

so wavelength will be 0.16 m
