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.

HELP ASAP! <br>why is rolling friction much smaller than sliding friction? Also give an example.​
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

Rolling friction is much smaller than sliding friction because Rolling friction is considerably less than sliding friction as there is no work done against the body that is rolling by the force of friction. For a body to start rolling a small amount of friction is required at the point where it rests on the other surface, else it would slide instead of roll.

Rolling Friction example: Anything with weels (cars,skateboards) or a ball rooling.

Sliding Friction example: Bicycle brakes,skinning your knee walking,writing.

8. A crate of bananas weighing 3000 N is shipped from South America to New York, where it
LiRa [457]

Answer:

Mechanical advantage = 15

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Output force = 3000N

Input force = 200N

To find the mechanical advantage;

Mechanical advantage = output force/input force

Substituting into the equation, we have

Mechanical advantage = 3000/200

Mechanical advantage = 15

Radioactive isotopes can be used to find the age of rocks, fossils, or other artifacts. Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5,730 years
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

1/8 = (1/2)^3

This implies the sample has decayed for 3 half lives

3 * 5730 yrs = 17,200 years
