Answer:

It is directed inward, toward the center of a circle.

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration is the acceleration resulting from a movement along a circular path.

This acceleration is always directed towards the center of the circle and is defined as follows:

a_{c}=\frac{v^2}{r}

where v is the tangential velocity of the object in the circular path, and r is the radius of the circle.

So the answer is:<u> It is directed inward, toward the center of a circle.</u>

A 40-kg rock is dropped from an elevation of 10 m. What is the velocity of the rock when it is 5-m from the ground?
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of rock m=40\ kg

Elevation of Rock h=10\ m

Distance traveled by rock with time

h=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where, u=initial velocity

t=time

a=acceleration

here initial velocity is zero

when rock is 5 m from ground then it has traveled a distance of 5 m from top because total height is 10 m

5=0\times t+\frac{1}{2}(9.8)(t^2)

t^2=\frac{10}{9.8}

t=1.004\approx 1\ s

velocity at this time

v=u+at

v=0+9.8\times 1.004

v=9.83\ m/s

Four football players are running down the field at the same speed. Player 1 weighs 180 lbs and is running toward the south goal
Serggg [28]
Player 2 because moment is mass times acceleration and since they are all going the same speed. Speed doesn't matter so the only thing that is left is mass/ weight and he has the most

Two objects are electrically charged. The net charge on one object is doubled. Therefore, the electric force _____.
creativ13 [48]
If net charge on one object is doubled, then electric force will also get double. It is because they are directly proportional to each other.

Hope this helps!

For this case we have that by definition, the kinetic energy is given by the following formula:

k= \frac {1} {2} * m * v ^ 2

Where:

m: It is the mass

v: It is the velocity

According to the data we have to:

m = 100 \ kg\\v = 9 \frac {m} {s}

Substituting the values we have:

k = \frac {1} {2} * (100) * (9) ^ 2\\k = \frac {1} {2} * (100) * 81\\k = 50 * 81\\k = 4050

finally, the kinetic energy is 4050 \ J

Option A
