A boy, standing at point O, is whirling a ball on a string over his head. After several whirls, he lets go of the string and the

ball travels in a straight line. Describe the velocity of the ball in both situations: whirling overhead and being let go.

D)While whirling overhead, the velocity changes. Moving in a straight line, the velocity does not change.

While the ball is <span>whirling overhead it is moving in a circle. It has circular velocity. More often used term is angular velocity. This comes from the fact that ball travels some angle during some time.

When it is let go ball travels in a straight line. It has linear velocity. Word "linear" means "straight".</span>

Two forces of 50 N and 30N respectively, are acting on an object. Find the net force (in N) on the object if
xxTIMURxx [149]

A) the forces are acting in the same direction.. B) Together, forces are acting in opposite directions

Answer:

A) 80 N

B) 20 N

Explanation:

A) If the forces acting are in the same direction, then the net force will be a sum of both so many faces..

Thus;

ΣF = 50 + 30

ΣF = 80 N

B) If the forces are acting in the in opposite directions with the larger force pointing in the positive y-axis then, the net force is;

ΣF = 50 - 30

ΣF = 20 N

If you had 8 balls and 7 of them were a certain weight, and 1 of them was heavier, how could you find the heaviest ball. All the
dybincka [34]

Answer:

There are two method of comparing the balls 1) using a balance  2) by  only 2 weighings.

Explanation:

There are two method of comparing the balls 1) using a balance  2) by  only 2 weighings.

Make the following groups - --- (1,2,3),(4,5,6),(7,8)

Step 1. compare the Weigh (1,2,3) and (4,5,6)

there are 2 possible outcomes:

1---both the group are of same weight. and named as (Case A)

2--- one of the group is heavier than other and named as  (Case B)

Step 2. Let examine both case

In Case A --in this case, now compare the weight of 7th and 8th ball. By this you have recognize the heavier ball by 2 weighing method.

In Case B -- considered the heaviest group (assume group (1,2,3) is heavy), from this group take randomly two ball and compare the their weight. out of these two ball, one  is heavy else the third ball is.

The whale shark is the largest of all fish and can have the mass of three adult
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

m = 20,000 kg

Explanation:

Force, F=2.5\times 10^4\ N

Acceleration of the shark, a=1.25\ m/s^2

It is required to find the mass of the shark. Let m is the mass. Using second law of motion to find it as follows :

F = ma

Putting the value of F and a to find m

m=\dfrac{F}{a}\\\\m=\dfrac{2.5\times 10^4}{1.25}\\\\m=20,000\ kg

So, the shark's mass is 20,000 kg.

To avoid breakdown of the capacitors, the maximum potential difference to which any of them can be individually charged is 125 V
aleksley [76]

Answer:

The maximum energy stored in the combination is 0.0466Joules

Explanation:

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

Three capacitors C1-11.7 μF, C2 21.0 μF, and C3 = 28.8 μF are connected in series. To avoid breakdown of the capacitors, the maximum potential difference to which any of them can be individually charged is 125 V. Determine the maximum energy stored in the series combination.

Energy stored in a capacitor is expressed as E = 1/2CtV² where

Ct is the total effective capacitance

V is the supply voltage

Since the capacitors are connected in series.

1/Ct = 1/C1+1/C2+1/C3

Given C1 = 11.7 μF, C2 = 21.0 μF, and C3 = 28.8 μF

1/Ct = 1/11.7 + 1/21.0 + 1/28.8

1/Ct = 0.0855+0.0476+0.0347

1/Ct = 0.1678

Ct = 1/0.1678

Ct = 5.96μF

Ct = 5.96×10^-6F

Since V = 125V

E = 1/2(5.96×10^-6)(125)²

E = 0.0466Joules
