For sprinters running at 12 m/s around a curved track of radius 26 m, how much greater (as a percentage) is the average total fo

Answer:

114.86%

Explanation:

In both cases, there is a vertical force equal to the sprinter's weight:

Fy = mg

When running in a circle, there is an additional centripetal force:

Fx = mv²/r

The net force is found with Pythagorean theorem:

F² = Fx² + Fy²

F² = (mv²/r)² + (mg)²

F² = m² ((v²/r)² + g²)

F = m √((v²/r)² + g²)

Compared to just the vertical force:

F / Fy

m √((v²/r)² + g²) / mg

√((v²/r)² + g²) / g

Given v = 12 m/s, r = 26 m, and g = 9.8 m/s²:

√((12²/26)² + 9.8²) / 9.8

1.1486

The force is about 114.86% greater (round as needed).

Answer:

θ = θ₀ + ½ w₀ (t -t_1) + α (t -t_1)²

Explanation:

This is an angular kinematic exercise the equation for the angular position

the particle A

       θ = θ₀ + ω₀ t + ½ α t²

They say for the particle B

     w₀B = ½ w₀

     αB = 2 α

In addition, the particle begins at a time t_1 after particle A, in order to use the same timer, we must subtract this time from the initial

      t´ = t - t_1

l

et's write the equation of particle B

      θ = θ₀ + w₀B t´ + ½ αB t´2

replace

     θ = θ₀ + ½ w₀ (t -t_1) + ½ 2α (t -t_1)²

     θ = θ₀ + ½ w₀ (t -t_1) + α (t -t_1)²

hichkok12 [17]
This is a concept of momentum. In equation, momentum is the product of force and distance. When a ball is thrown, its force is constant all throughout unless disturbed by an external force. Therefore, force is the constant of proportionality that relates momentum with distance. When you block a ball from a given distance, you would feel the great force on your hand. In order to reduce the force, you have to follow the direction of the force in order to minimize the impact. By doing this, you gradually decrease the momentum of the ball.

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

F'=2F

Explanation:

The Coulomb's law states that the magnitude of the electrostatic force between two charges is directly proportional to the product of the magnitudes of charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them:

F=\frac{kq_1q_2}{d^2}

In this case, we have q_1'=2q_1:

F'=\frac{kq'_1q_2}{d^2}\\F'=\frac{k(2q_1)q_2}{d^2}\\F'=2\frac{kq_1q_2}{d^2}\\F'=2F
