Wow !  This will take more than one step, and we'll need to be careful
not to trip over our shoe laces while we're stepping through the problem.

The centripetal acceleration of any object moving in a circle is

                          (speed-squared)  /  (radius of the circle)  .

Notice that we won't need to use the mass of the train.

We know the radius of the track.  We don't know the trains speed yet,
but we do have enough information to figure it out.  That's what we
need to do first.

Speed  =  (distance traveled) / (time to travel the distance).

Distance = 10 laps of the track.   Well how far is that ? ? ?

1 lap = circumference of the track = (2π) x (radius) =  2.4π  meters

10 laps =  24π  meters.

Time = 1 minute 20 seconds  =  80 seconds

The trains speed is  (distance) / (time)

                               =  (24π meters) / (80 seconds)

                               =        0.3 π  meters/second .

NOW ... finally, we're ready to find the centripetal acceleration.

                                 <span> (speed)²  /  (radius)

                           =    (0.3π m/s)²  /  (1.2 meters)

                           =    (0.09π m²/s²)  /  (1.2 meters)

                           =    (0.09π  /  1.2)   m/s²

                           =          0.236  m/s²  .        (rounded)

If there's another part of the problem that wants you to find
the centripetal FORCE ...

Well,       Force = (mass) · (acceleration) .

We know the mass, and we ( I ) just figured out the acceleration,
so you'll have no trouble calculating the centripetal force.       </span>

A transformer consisting of two coils wrapped around an iron core is connected to a generator and a resistor (Resistor is connec
V125BC [204]

Answer:

The peak emf of the generator is 40.94 V.

Explanation:

Given that,

Number of turns in primary coil= 11

Number of turns in secondary coil= 18

Peak voltage = 67 V

We nee to calculate the peak emf

Using relation of number of turns and emf

\dfrac{N_{1}}{N_{2}}=\dfrac{E_{1}}{E_{2}}

E_{1}=\dfrac{N_{1}}{N_{2}}\times E_{2}

Where, N₁ = Number of turns in primary coil

N₂ = Number of turns in secondary coil

E₂ = emf across secondary coil

Put the value into the formula

E_{1}=\dfrac{11}{18}\times67

E_{1}=40.94\ V

Hence, The peak emf of the generator is 40.94 V.

A ball is kicked at an angle of 35° with the ground.a) What should be the initial velocity of the ball so that it hits a target
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

a.18.5 m/s

b.1.98 s

Explanation:

We are given that

\theta=35^{\circ}

a.Let v_0 be the initial velocity of the ball.

Distance,x=30 m

Height,h=1.8 m

v_x=v_0cos\theta=v_0cos35

v_y=v_0sin\theta=v_0sin35

x=v_0cos\theta\times t=v_0cos35\times t

t=\frac{30}{v_0cos35}

h=v_yt-\frac{1}{2}gt^2

Substitute the values

1.8=v_0sin35\frac{30}{v_0cos35}-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)(\frac{30}{v_0cso35})^2

1.8=30tan35-\frac{6574.6}{v^2_0}

\frac{6574.6}{v^2_0}=21-1.8=19.2

v^2_0=\frac{6574.6}{19.2}

v_0=\sqrt{\frac{6574.6}{19.2}}=18.5 m/s

Initial velocity of the ball=18.5 m/s

b.Substitute the value then we get

t=\frac{30}{18.5cos35}

t=1.98 s

Hence, the time for the ball to reach the target=1.98 s
