Answer:
E) The centripetal force is always perpendicular to the velocity.
Explanation:
Due to gravity and inertia, the satellite follows a uniform circular motion. In this movement, the velocity is always tangent to the orbit and the centripetal force is directed towards the center. Therefore, there is no net acceleration in the same direction of velocity, which implies that it remains constant.
Part A:
Acceleration can be calculated by dividing the difference of the initial and final velocities by the given time. That is,
a = (Vf - Vi) / t
where a is acceleration,
Vf is final velocity,
Vi is initial velocity, and
t is time
Substituting,
a = (9 m/s - 0 m/s) / 3 s = 3 m/s²
<em>ANSWER: 3 m/s²</em>
Part B:
From Newton's second law of motion, the net force is equal to the product of the mass and acceleration,
F = m x a
where F is force,
m is mass, and
a is acceleration
Substituting,
F = (80 kg) x (3 m/s²) = 240 kg m/s² = 240 N
<em>ANSWER: 240 N </em>
Part C:
The distance that the sprinter travel is calculated through the equation,
d = V₀t + 0.5at²
Substituting,
d = (0 m/s)(3 s) + 0.5(3 m/s²)(3 s)²
d = 13.5 m
<em>ANSWER: d = 13.5 m</em>
Answer:
<u>The pendulum bob swing past the mean position because:</u>
When a pendulum's bob is accelerating at its extreme position its velocity is zero. Due to the restoring toque the bob starts to accelerates towards its mean postion. The maximum acceleration of the pendulum's bob is
and the the acceleration decreases as
towards the mean position.
The acceleration at the mean position becomes zero but the velocity remains maximum. Hence the bob continues to move and does not stops.Thus it can summarised as the force decreases ,acceleration decreases and velocity increases at slow rate.
Answer:
the rate of flow = 29.28 ×10⁻³ m³/s or 0.029 m³/s
Explanation:
Given:
Diameter of the pipe = 100mm = 0.1m
Contraction ratio = 0.5
thus, diameter at the throat of venturimeter = 0.5×0.1m = 0.05m
The formula for discharge through a venturimeter is given as:

Where,
is the coefficient of discharge = 0.97 (given)
A₁ = Area of the pipe
A₁ = 
A₂ = Area at the throat
A₂ = 
g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²
Now,
The gauge pressure at throat = Absolute pressure - The atmospheric pressure
⇒The gauge pressure at throat = 2 - 10.3 = -8.3 m (Atmosphric pressure = 10.3 m of water)
Thus, the pressure difference at the throat and the pipe = 3- (-8.3) = 11.3m
Substituting the values in the discharge formula we get
or

or
Q = 29.28 ×10⁻³ m³/s
Hence, the rate of flow = 29.28 ×10⁻³ m³/s or 0.029 m³/s
