Answer:

Centripetal acceleration,

a_{c} =2.63\ m/s^{2} }

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration:

Centripetal acceleration is the idea that any object moving in a circle, in something called circular motion, will have an acceleration vector pointed towards the center of that circle.

Centripetal means towards the center.

Examples of centripetal acceleration (acceleration pointing towards the center of rotation) include such situations as cars moving on the cicular part of the road.

An acceleration is a change in velocity.

Formula for Centripetal acceleration:

a_{c} =\frac{(velocity)^{2} }{radius}

Given here,

Velocity = 4.5 m/s

radius = 7.7 m

To Find :

a_{c} = ?

Solution:

We have,

a_{c} =\frac{(velocity)^{2} }{radius}

Substituting  given value in it we get

a_{c} =\frac{(4.5)^{2}}{7.7} \\\\a_{c} =\frac{20.25}{7.7}\\\\a_{c} =2.629\ m/s^{2} \\\\\therefore a_{c} =2.63\ m/s^{2

Centripetal acceleration,

a_{c} =2.63\ m/s^{2} }

Why is it that the two possible faults with inductors are short circuit and open circuit?
lukranit [14]
These are the most common type of faults not just inductors but also with other elements too like resistors,transformers, generators etc.
open circuit fault means the flow of current is disrupted some how in the circuit and the circuit stops operating. and for short circuit fault the current in the system will be pretty high and this short circuit current or fault current will always run back to the fault location, if the inductor got short circuited somehow then the fault current will only run through it because it will then provide a very low impedence path

Choose all of the true statements regarding the relationship between voltage, resistance, and current. Current is measured in am
AveGali [126]

-- <u><em>Current is measured in amps.</em></u>  (You can use any symbol you want to represent current, but the most common one is " I ", not "Δ".)

-- <u><em>The relationship between current, voltage, and resistance is mathematically defined by Ohm's Law. </em></u>

-- <u><em>Current is the flow of electrons through a circuit.</em></u>

-- (Ohm's Law is NOT mathematically represented by the equation V=I/R.)  <u><em>It should be V = I · R</em></u> .  

(When solving for Resistance in a circuit and both voltage and current are known values, the equation I =V*R is not true, and not the way to solve it.)  <u><em>If the resistance is what you're looking for, then the equation to use is  </em></u><u><em>R = V / I</em></u><u><em> .  </em></u>

<em>-- </em><u><em>If the voltage in a circuit is increased, the current will also increase.</em></u>

PLEASE ANSWER FAST!! A scientist put red blood cells in water that contained salt. Over time, the red blood cells burst. What is
Nitella [24]
It is most likely true that there was a lower concentration of salt in the water than in the cells because when blood cells are put in a hypotonic solution such as pure water, the little to no salt concentration in the water causes the cells to swell and burst. This would occur because the water would try to dilute the solution inside of the blood cell and which would, therefore, cause it to burst. Hope this helps!

A student has a thin copper beaker containing 100 g of a pure metal in the solid state. The metal is at 215°C, its exact melting
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

The metal will melt but their will be no change in temperature.

Explanation:

The metal is at its melting temperature which means it is still in solid phase but have to cross the enthalpy of its condensation at this same temperature to convert into liquid phase.

<u>On supplying heat, the metal's temperature will not change as the heat will be required as enthalpy of condensation to melt the solid to liquid at the melting temperature.</u>
