Answer:

200 N

Explanation:

For a body moving in uniform circular motion, the force acting on it will be <em>centripetal force</em> and its direction is <em>radially inward</em> , pointing to the center.

The radially inward acceleration, or the centripetal acceleration is given by :

                                          a = v² / r

           where v is the speed at which the body is moving and r is the radius of the circle

Given-

m = 55kg

v = 14.1 m/s

r= 55m

We know that F = ma

⇒   F = m (  v²/ r )

⇒ F = 55 x 14.1 x 14.1 / 55

⇒ F =14.1 x 14.1 = 200 N

∴ <em>The force acting is 200 N</em>.

What is the strength of the electric field in a region where the electric potential is constant?
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Where the electric potential is constant, the strength of the electric field is zero.

Explanation:

As a test charge moves in a given direction, the rate of change of the electric potential of the charge gives the potential gradient whose negative value is the same as the value of the electric field. In other words, the negative of the slope or gradient of electric potential (V) in a direction, say x, gives the electric field (Eₓ) in that direction. i.e

Eₓ = - dV / dx        ----------(i)

From equation (i) above, if electric potential (V) is constant, then the differential (which is the electric field) gives zero.

<em>Therefore, a constant electric potential means that electric field is zero.</em>

What are the two types of electrical circuits
uysha [10]

Series Circuit
A series circuit there is only one path for the electrons to flow (see image of series circuit). The main disadvantage of a series circuit is that if there is a break in the circuit the entire circuit is open and no current will flow. An example of a series would the the lights on many inexpensive Christmas trees. If one light goes out all of them will.



Parallel Circuit
In a parallel circuit the different parts of the electric circuit are on several different branches. There are several different paths that electrons can flow. If there is a break in one branch of the circuit electrons can still flow in other branches (see image of parallel circuit). Your home is wired in a parallel circuit so if one light bulb goes out the other will stay on.

20 kg object travels 28 meter and stops. coefficient friction= 0.085 how much work was done by friction?
Tresset [83]
Assuming it is on a horizontal surface:
friction = μR
R = 20g (g is gravity 9.81)
so Friction = 0.085 x 20g
Work done is force x distance 
so Work done = 0.085 x 20g x 28
 = 466.956 J

In a particular experiment to study the photoelectric effect, the frequency of the incident light and the temperature of the met
qwelly [4]

Answer:

B. The number of electrons emitted from the metal per second increases.

Explanation:

Light consists of photons . Energy of each photon depends upon frequency of light . The increase in intensity increases the number of photons . It does not increase energy of photons .

So if a high intensity light falls on a photosensitive plate , each photon ejects one electron . So number of electrons increases if we increase intensity of photon. It does not increase kinetic energy of ejected electrons . Work function depends upon the nature of plate.
