Answer:

The speed is constant.

Speed is a scalar quantity (magnitude only).

Velocity is a vector quantity (magnitude and direction).

For an object in Uniform Circular Motion the change in velocity is always

directed towards the center of the circle, and this change of velocity

gives rise to the acceleration which is directed towards the center of

rotation. This is called the centripetal acceleration, and it is the centripetal

force (for instance the attraction of the moon towards the earth) which

produces the centripetal acceleration.

Answer:

The speed is constant.

Explanation:

In reality in circular motion the velocity is never constant because the object keeps changing direction in a continuous fashion. Remember velocity is measured by magnitude and direction. However we use the term constant velocity to mark constant speed for convenience.

Electrons and protons travel from the Sun to the Earth at a typical velocity of 3.83 ✕ 105 m/s in the positive x-direction. Thou

Leona [35]

Answer:

$F=2.84*10^{-26}N$ & -y direction

$F=2.84*10^{-26}N$ & +y direction

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Speed of electron $V_e=3.83 * 10^5 m/s$ +x direction

Earths magnetic field $B_e=3.04 * 10^-^8$ +z direction

Generally the equation for magnetic force $F_m$ is mathematically given by

$F=q(V_e*B_e)$

where

$q=1.6*10^{-19}c\\\=i*\=z=-\=j$

$F=1.6*10^{-19}(3.83 * 10^5 m/s*3.04 * 10^-^8)$

$F=-2.84*10^{-26}N \=j$

Magnitude & Direction

$F=2.84*10^{-26}N$ -y direction

Generally the equation for magnitude and direction of the magnetic force on an electron. is mathematically given by

$\=F'=-1.6*10^{-19}(3.83 * 10^5 m/s*3.04 * 10^-^8)$

$\=F'=-2.84*10^{-26}N \=j$

Magnitude & Direction

$F=2.84*10^{-26}N$ & +y direction

The area of the piston to the master cylinder in a hydraulic braking system of a car is 0.6 square inches. If a force of 5.6 lb

balu736 [363]

Answer:

16.8 lb is the force on the brake pad of one wheel.

Explanation:

Force applied on the piston = $F_1=5.6 lb$

Area of the piston = $A_1=0.6 inches^2$

Force applied on the brakes = $F_2$

Area of the brakes = $A_2=1.8 inches^2$

Applying Pascal's law: 'For an incompressible fluid pressure at one surface is equal to the pressure at other surface'.

$\frac{F_1}{A_2}=\frac{F_2}{A_2}$

$F_2=\frac{5.6 lb\times 1.8 inhes^2}{0.6 inches^2}=16.8 lb$

16.8 lb is the force on the brake pad of one wheel.

13. If both the directions of velocity and acceleration are negative, ...........

lawyer [7]

Answer:

B)velocity of object decreases

Explanation:

Consider the positive x axis as positive direction

Assume a body moving in negative x-axis direction

It's acceleration also alone negative x-axis direction

So according to our consideration

velocity and acceleration values are negative

That is both are towards negative x direction

But as both velocity and acceleration are in same direction, MAGNITUDE of velocity increases

But as magnitude increases in negative direction, velocity value decreases

But speed value increases(As speed is scalar and velocity is a vector)
