Answer:

a_{cA} = 6.075  m/s²

a_{cB} = 6.075  m/s²

F_{cA} = 6682.5 N

F_{cB} = 9720 N

Explanation:

Normal or centripetal acceleration measures change in speed direction over time. Its expression is given by:

a_{c} = \frac{v^{2} }{r}  Formula 1

Where:

a_{c} : Is the normal or centripetal acceleration of the body  ( m/s²)

v: It is the magnitude of the tangential velocity of the body at the given point

.(m/s)

r: It is the radius of curvature. (m)

Newton's second law:

∑F = m*a Formula ( 2)

∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in Newton (N)

m : mass in kilograms (kg)

Data

v_{A} = 27 \frac{m}{s}

v_{B} = 27 \frac{m}{s}

m_{A} = 1100 kg

m_{B} = 1600 kg

r= 120 m

Problem development

We replace data in formula (1) to calculate centripetal acceleration:

a_{cA} = \frac{(27)^{2} }{120}

a_{cA} = 6.075  m/s²

a_{cB} = \frac{(27)^{2} }{120}

a_{cB} = 6.075  m/s²

We replace data in formula (2) to calculate  centripetal  force Fc) :

F_{cA} = m_{A} *a_{cA} = 1100kg*6.075\frac{m}{s^{2} }

F_{cA} = 6682.5 N

F_{cB} = m_{B} *a_{cB} = 1600kg*6.075\frac{m}{s^{2} }

F_{cB} = 9720 N

Newton's first law is sometimes known as the law of inertia. It is the law that states that an object at rest will stay at rest and an object in motion will stay in motion unless a force acts upon it. For example, if I was working with a wrench in space an it slipped, it would keep on going in one direction with a constant speed unless it hits something. Hope this helps!

A 43.9-g piece of copper (CCu= 0.385 J/g°C) at 135.0°C is plunged into 254 g of water at 39.0°C. Assuming that no heat is lost t
Semmy [17]

Answer:

T = 40.501\,^{\textdegree}C

Explanation:

The interaction of the piece of copper and water means that the first one need to transfer heat in order to reach a thermal equilibrium with water. Then:

-Q_{out,Cu} = Q_{in,H_{2}O}

After a quick substitution, the expanded expression is:

-(43.9\,g)\cdot (0.385\,\frac{J}{g\cdot ^{\textdegree}C} )\cdot (T-135^{\textdegree}C) = (254\,g)\cdot (4.187\,\frac{J}{g\cdot ^{\textdegree}C} )\cdot (T-39\,^{\textdegree}C)

-16.902\,\frac{J}{^{\textdegree}C}\cdot (T-135^{\textdegree}C) = 1063.498\,\frac{J}{^{\textdegree}C} \cdot  (T-39^{\textdegree}C)

43758,192\,J = 1080.4\,\frac{J}{^{\textdegree}C}\cdot T

The final temperature of the system is:

T = 40.501\,^{\textdegree}C

The coefficient of kinetic friction between an object and the surface upon which it is sliding is 0.10. The mass of the object i
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

Explanation:

1) Force Friction = Normal Force * Coefficient of Friction

Force Friction = Mass * Gravity * Coefficient of Friction

2) F = ma

Force = mass * acceleration

Force Friction (from #1) = mass * acceleration

acceleration = Force Friction / Mass

What is the relationship between power and voltage?
kipiarov [429]

<u>Answer:</u>

The power and voltage are related through Power Rule .

<u> Explanation : </u>

Power Rule  states  that the current I  that flows the element in the circuit  with a loss in voltage V,  then the amount of  power dissipated by that element in the circuit is the   multiplicative product of  voltage and the current.

Mathematically, power law  is

\boldsymbol{P}=\boldsymbol{I} \times \boldsymbol{V}

The rate of work done or the rate of energy consumption or production is  termed as power.Unit of power is denoted as W(watts).

Potential energy between  any two points on a circuit is called as  Voltage and is measured in volts (V) .
