explain why the motion of a body which is moving with constant speed in a circular path is said to be accelerated ?

In this case when a body moves in circular path acceleration is called Centripetal acceleration... Body in circular path moves with constant speed but its direction changes at every instant of time ...as acceleration is produced when either magnitude or direction of velocity changes...here magnitude remains same but direction changes so body is said to be accelerated....

As its velocity changes and hence is known as accelarated

g An astronaut must journey to a distant planet, which is 189 light-years from Earth. What speed will be necessary if the astron

Butoxors [25]

Answer:

The value is $v = 2.999 *10^{8} \ m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The time taken to travel to the planet from earth is $t = 189 \ light-years$

The time to be spent on the ship is $t_{s} = 12 \ years$

Generally speed can be obtained using the mathematical relation represented below

$t_s = 2 * t * \sqrt{1 - \frac{v^2}{c^2 } }$

The 2 in the equation show that the trip is a round trip i.e going and coming back

=> $12 = 2 * 189 * \sqrt{1 - \frac{v^2}{(3.0*10^{8})^2 } }$

=> $v = 2.999 *10^{8} \ m/s$

A softball player moving 3.89 m/s

Ahat [919]

Answer:

0.119 s

Explanation:

Given that

$U=3.89\ m/s\\a=-1.44\ m/s^2\\S=4.8\ m$

Lets take final speed of the softball after covering 4.8 m = V

We know that

$V^2=U^2+2aS\\V^2=3.89^2-2\times 1.44\times 4.8\\V=3.7\ m/s$

Also We know that

$V=U+at\\$

Putting the value of V ,U and a in the previous equation We get

$3.7=3.89-1.44\times t\\t=0.119\ s$

Therefore slide time will be 0.119 s

A positive charge of 1 µC is taken from points A & B such that VA-VB = 100 V. Then the

Lunna [17]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Let Charge of $1\ \mu C$ is taken from points A & B such that $V_A-V_B=1000\ V$ .

We need to find the energy of charge. Electric potential is defined as the work done per unit of electric charge. So,

$W=(V_B-V_A)q\\\\W=-1000\times 10^{-6}\\\\W=E=-10^{-3}\ J$

So, the energy of charge decreases by $10^{-3}\ J$ . Hence, the correct option is (a).
