Answer:

(a) 10 m/s

(b) 22.4 m/s

Explanation:

(a) Draw a free body diagram of the car when it is at the top of the loop. There are two forces: weight force mg pulling down, and normal force N pushing down.

Sum of forces in the centripetal direction (towards the center):

∑F = ma

mg + N = mv²/r

At minimum speed, the normal force is 0.

mg = mv²/r

g = v²/r

v = √(gr)

v = √(10 m/s² × 10.0 m)

v = 10 m/s

(b) Energy is conserved.

Initial kinetic energy + initial potential energy = final kinetic energy

½ mv₀² + mgh = ½ mv²

v₀² + 2gh = v²

(10 m/s)² + 2 (10 m/s²) (20.0 m) = v²

v = 22.4 m/s

Answer:

finding Cepheid variable and measuring their periods.

Explanation:

This method is called finding Cepheid variable and measuring their periods.

Cepheid variable is actually a type of star that has a radial pulsation having a varying brightness and diameter. This change in brightness is very well defined having a period and amplitude.

A potent clear link between the luminosity and pulsation period of a Cepheid variable developed Cepheids as an important determinants of cosmic criteria for scaling galactic and extra galactic distances. Henrietta Swan Leavitt revealed this robust feature of conventional Cepheid in 1908 after observing thousands of variable stars in the Magellanic Clouds. This in fact turn, by making comparisons its established luminosity to its measured brightness, allows one to evaluate the distance to the star.

Voltage needed to raise current to 3.75a using 20,20,200 resistor set

Varvara68 [4.7K]

<u>Answer:</u> The voltage needed is 35.7 V

<u>Explanation:</u>

Assuming that the resistors are arranged in parallel combination.

For the resistors arranged in parallel combination:

$\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}+\frac{1}{R_3}$

We are given:

$R_1=20\Omega\\R_2=20\Omega\\R_3=200\Omega$

Using above equation, we get:

$\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{20}+\frac{1}{20}+\frac{1}{200}\\\\\frac{1}{R}=\frac{10+10+1}{200}\\\\R=\frac{200}{21}=9.52\Omega$

Calculating the voltage by using Ohm's law:

$V=IR$ .....(1)

where,

V = voltage applied

I = Current = 3.75 A

R = Resistance = $9.52\Omega$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$V=3.75\times 9.52\\\\V=35.7V$

Hence, the voltage needed is 35.7 V

I don’t think we can answer this question with the information given. ANY ball thrown with ANY initial velocity v will be observed at a height h twice and with a time interval Δt.

What is one result of meiosis?

kogti [31]

Answer:

meiosis is a kind of cell division which occurs in special cells like gametes in which the daughter cells have half the numbers of chromosomes than the parent cells .

hence we can say that by this cell division 2 haploid cells are formed.
