What direction is centrifugal force to the force that holds the object in a round path of motion?

Physics

Kruka [31]3 years ago

C

Centrifugal force is the apparent outward force on a mass when it is rotated. ... Since Earth rotates around a fixed axis, the direction of centrifugal force is always outward away from the axis. Thus it is opposite to the direction of gravity at the equator; at Earth's poles it is zero.

* A 5 kg ball is dropped from a height of 20 m. How much kinetic energy will it have 10 m above the ground? a. 490 J b. 392 J C.
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

A. 490

Explanation:

soln

mass = m = 5kg

Height = h = 10m

Acceleration due to gravity = g = 9.8ms²

K.E = 1/2 × mass × (velocity)²

Recall from equations of motion

v² = u² + 2gh

Therefore,

K.E = 1/2 × mass × ( u² + 2gh)

K.E = 1/2 × 5 × ( 0² + 2×10×9.8)

K.E = 1/2 × 5 × 196

K.E = 1/2 × 980

K.E = 490 Joules

A car generates 2,552 N and weighs 2,250 pounds. what is the rate of acceleration
Lilit [14]
Ans: a = 2.50 m/s^2

Explanation:
First convert the mass in its standard unit i.e. kilogram(kg):
2250 lbs = 1020.583kg

Next use Newton's Second law:
F = ma

Where F = 2552N
m = 1020.583kg

=> a = (2552/1020.583)
a = 2.50 m/s^2

Two plane mirrors are separated by 120°, as the drawing illustrates. If a ray strikes mirror M1 at a θ1 = 64° angle of incidence
tino4ka555 [31]

Angle, θ2 at which the light leaves mirror 2 is 56°

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given-

θ1 = 64°

So, α will also be 64°

According to the figure:

α + β = 90°

So,

β = 90° - α

  = 90° - 64°

  = 26°

β + γ + 120° = 180°

γ = 180° - 120° - β

γ = 180° - 120° - 26°

γ = 34°

γ + δ = 90°

δ = 90° - γ

δ = 90° - 34°

δ = 56°

According to the law of reflection,

angle of incidence = angle of reflection

θ2 = δ = 56°

Therefore, angle θ2 at which the light leaves mirror 2 is 56°

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

Δh_air=714m

Explanation:

Given data

P_{1}=753mmHg\\P_{2}=690mmHg\\ p_{air}=1.2kg/m^{3}\\  g=9.8m/s^{2}

Solution

ΔP=P₁-P₂

=(ΔhHg)×pHg×g

=(Δh_air)× p_air ×g

Then

Δh_air=(pHg+ΔhHg)÷p_air

=\frac{13600*(753-690)*10^{-3} }{1.2}\\ =714m

Δh_air=714m
