An object of mass 0.50 kg is transported to the surface of Planet X where the object's weight is measured to be 20 N. The radius

of the planet is 4.0 ´ 106 m. What free fall accerleration will the 0.5 kg object experience when at the surface of Planet X. What is the mass of Planet X? (G = 6.67 ´ 10-11 N × m2/kg2)

Explanation:

The free fall acceleration is:

F = ma

20 N = (0.50 kg) a

a = 40 m/s²

The mass of Planet X is:

F = GMm / r²

20 N = (6.67×10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²) M (0.50 kg) / (4.0×10⁶ m)²

M = 9.6×10²⁴ kg

What type of acceleration does an object moving with constant speed in a circular path experience?Select one:A) constant acceler
olga_2 [115]

ANSWER:

D) centripetal acceleration.

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

When a body performs a uniform circular motion, the direction of the velocity vector changes at every instant. This variation is experienced by the linear vector, due to a force called centripetal, directed towards the center of the circumference that gives rise to the centripetal acceleration.

Therefore, the answer is centripetal acceleration.

Engineers are designing a curved section of a highway. If the radius of curvature of the curve is 194 m, at what angle should th
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

The banking angle is 23.84 degrees.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of the curve, r = 194 m

Speed of the car, v = 29 m/s

On the banked curve, the centripetal force is balanced by the force of friction such that,

mg\ tan\theta=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

tan\theta=\dfrac{v^2}{rg}

tan\theta=\dfrac{(29)^2}{194\times 9.8}

\theta=23.84^{\circ}

So, the banking angle is 23.84 degrees. Hence, this is the required solution.

densk [106]

Answer:10.4 times of initial velocity

Explanation:

Given

Diameter reduced by 69 %

it approaches with velocity v_0

suppose its velocity is v during blocked passage

suppose d is the initial diameter and d_2 diameter is

d_2=d(1-0.69)

d_2=0.31 d

A_2=\frac{\pi d_2^2}{4}

As flow is constant

Q_1=Q_2

d^2v_0=d_2^2v

v=10.40 v_0
