Centripetal acceleration is (speed-squared) / (radius)

CA = (6 m/s)² / (9 m)

CA = (36 m²/s²) / (9 m)

CA = (36/9) (m²/m·s²)

<em>Centripetal acceleration = 4 m/s²</em>

If a force of 30N is applied to an object of mass 8kg which is kept on a surface, it achieves an acceleration of 3m/s. What is t
Eduardwww [97]

By Newton's second law, the net force on the object acting parallel to the surface is

∑ F = F[applied] - F[friction] = (8k g) (3 m/s²)

If F[applied] = 30 N, then

30 N - F[friction] = 24 N   ⇒   F[friction] = 6 N

so the answer is B.

While you are in a bus that moves at 100 km/h you walk from the back to the front at 10 km/h. What is your speed relative to the
aleksklad [387]

Answer: 110km/h

100+10=110km/h

Explanation:

Motion is defined as a change of position. The frame of reference is usually assumed to be at rest. If one is sitting on a bus, the road appears to be moving backwards relative to the observer. If he/she now walks to the front of the bus, he has a speed relative to the earth which is now greater than that of the bus hence the answer.

Is it possible to have total internal reflection for light incident from air on water? Explain your answer.
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

Yes it is possible to have total internal reflection for light incident from air on water.

Explanation:

  • The objective of total Internal Reflection is giving the full reflection of a ray of light within a medium.Rainbow is the best example for this question.
  • It can be explained by the example of a rainbow in which light from the sun is travelling in the medium if air and goes through total internal reflection in the tiny water droplet resulting in splitting of the white light into its 7 components and thus forming a rainbow.

What is a chicken’s rate of acceleration that speeds up from 4 mph (mi/h) to a top speed of 9 mi/h in 0.5 hr?
tatuchka [14]
We can use the formula:
acceleration = change in velocity / time
a = (9 - 4) / 0.5
a = 10 mi/h²

Now, we will also check the units. In the numerator was mi/h and the denominator was h so the units become mi/h².
