At an amusement park, the wheelie carries passengers in a circular path of radius r = 11.2 m. If the angular speed of the wheeli

e is 0.550 revolutions/s, (a) What is the tangential velocity of the passengers due to the circular motion? (b) What is the acceleration of the passengers?

Answer:

(a) Tangential velocity will be 38.648 m/sec

(b) Acceleration will be 133.617m/sec^2

Explanation:

We have given radius r = 11.2 m

Angular speed \omega =0.550rev/sec=0.550\times 2\pi =3.454rad/sec

(a) We have to find the tangential velocity

We know that tangential velocity is given by  

v_t=\omega r=3.454\times 11.2=38.684m/sec

(b) We know that acceleration is given by

a=\frac{v^2}{r}=\frac{38.684^2}{11.2}=133.617m/sec^2

1. What is the major function of the pons? 
         -Other than serving as a conduction pathway, the pons also contains a nucleus that is essential for breathing.
2.  Why is the medulla the most vital part of the brain?       
         -Medulla is very important because it function for the involuntary movement and processes that happen in the body without giving a thought about it. It performs crucial tasks like regulating the blood pressure.

If the period of the pendulum is tripled, what is the length of the string increased by?
Nitella [24]
The period of the pendulum doesn't determine the length of the string. 
It's the other way around.

The period of the pendulum is proportional to the square root of its length.
So if you want to triple the period, you have to make the string nine times
as long as it is now.

What effect does the vertical acceleration have on the horizontal velocity of the projectile?
KengaRu [80]
Answer:
None, if air resistance is ignored.

Explanation:
At any instant, the projectile has vertical and horizontal components of velocity.
Vertical acceleration due to gravity affects the vertical velocity by accelerating the object toward the center of the earth, and by decreasing the upward vertical velocity.. 
The horizontal component of velocity makes the object travel horizontally as long as the projectile is airborne.
Thsi discussion assumes that air resistance is ignored.

What is happening in the diagram?
pishuonlain [190]
In the diagram, the ship send sound(?) waves to the water, to determine if there is anything there. If there is something like a sunken ship shown in the diagram, the waves return in a shorter time hence you can understand if theres something or now. This is the principle of radars and sonars.
