Answer:
80 J
Explanation:
PE = mgh
PE = (4 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(2 m)
PE = 78.4 J and with sig figs, it would be 80 J
Answer:
a. 4v
Explanation:
Alf moves with speed v
Alf travel during the same amount of time that is Δt = (1/4)s
v = (1/4)s / Δt = s / 4 Δt
s / Δt = 4 v
Beth travels a distance s during time Δt,
speed of Beth = s / Δt = 4 v .
<span>In an experiment, a researcher can make claims about causation if the independent variable changes because of changes made to the dependent variable. Causation works on cause and effect, so the changed independent variable is the cause and the changed dependent variable is the effect. In an experiment the independent variable is changed to determine the dependent variables value, so the two are directly related.</span>
Answer:
The girl has greater tangential acceleration
Explanation:
The angular acceleration (
) of the merry go round is equal to the rate of the change of the angular velocity,
:

Since all the points of the merry go round complete 1 circle in the same time, the angular velocity of each point of the merry go round is the same, and so all the points also have the same angular acceleration.
The tangential acceleration instead is given by

where
is the angular acceleration
r is the distance from the centre of the merry go round
Since the girl is near the outer edge and the boy is closer to the centre, the value of r for the girl is larger than for the boy, so the girl has greater tangential acceleration.
