Answer:

B) 12.1 m/s

Explanation:

Sum of the forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

N − mg = 0

N = mg

Sum of the forces in the radial direction:

∑F = ma

F = m v² / r

Nμ = m v² / r

Substituting and solving for v:

mgμ = m v² / r

gμ = v² / r

v = √(gμr)

Given that μ = 0.200 and r = 75.0 m:

v = √(9.81 m/s² × 0.200 × 75.0 m)

v = 12.1 m/s

How many protons are in the radioactive isotope 40/19K?
trasher [3.6K]
First we have to establish that the number of protons is equivalent to the atomic number of element. Here I am assuming that you are referring to Potassium (K) - 40. Potassium, stable or unstable has 19 protons.

love history [14]
There is not enough information given to answer with. The force of gravity at the planet's surface depends on the planet's radius as well as its mass. The planet could have exactly the same mass as Earth has. But if it's radius is only 71% of Earth's radius, then gravity on its surface will be twice as strong as gravity on Earth.
