Answer:

Because the person is changing direction

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object is defined as the rate of change of velocity:

a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}

where

\Delta v is the change in velocity

\Delta t is the change in time

We must keep in mind that velocity is a vector, consisting of a speed and a direction. Therefore, a change in velocity means:

- either a change in the speed of the object, or

- a change in its direction

In this problem, the person is running around the track with a constant speed. However, his velocity is constantly changing (because the track is circular), this means that the change in velocity is not zero, and so there is a non-zero acceleration.

What is the speed of a wave in (m/s) with a 5 meter wavelength and a period of 20 seconds?
arlik [135]

Answer: 0.25 m/s

Explanation:  Speed = wavelengt · frequency  

v = λf   and frequency is 1/period  f = 1/T

Then v = λ/T = 5 m / 20 s = 0.25 m/s

Consider two soap bubbles having radii r1 and r2 (r1 &lt; r2) connected via a valve. What happens if we open the valve?
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

Explanation:

The radius of the smaller bubble, r1 will decrease and that of the bigger bubble, r2 will increase.

The pressure that is present in the smaller bubble usually is greater than the pressure that exists inside that of the bigger bubble. This then makes air to flow from r1 to r2 thereby making the radius of the smaller bubble r1, to decrease while keeping that of the bigger bubble r2 higher.
