A scooter is traveling at a constant speed v when it encounters a circular hill of radius r = 480 m. The driver and scooter toge

ther have mass m = 159 kg.
(a) What speed in m/s does the scooter have if the driver feels weightlessness (i.e., has an apparent weight of zero) at the top of the hill?
(b) If the driver is traveling at the speed above and encounters a hill with a radius 2r,

Answer:

68.585m/sec , 779.1 N

Explanation:

To feel weightless, centripetal acceleration must equal g (9.8m/sec^2). The accelerations then cancel.

From centripetal motion.

F =( mv^2)/2

But since we are dealing with weightlessness

r = 480m

g = 9.8m/s^2

M also cancels, so forget M.

V^2 = Fr

V = √ Fr

V =√ (9.8 x 480) = 4704

= 68.585m/sec.

b) Centripetal acceleration = (v^2/2r) = (68.585^2/960) = 4704/960

= 4.9m/sec^2.

Weight (force) = (mass x acceleration) = 159kg x (g - 4.9)

159kg × ( 9.8-4.9)

159kg × 4.9

= 779.1N

A. Obtain the following: microwave, ruler, something meltable (e.g. candy bar, marshmallows) B. A microwave works by setting up
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

E = 124.7 N / C

Explanation:

Let's analyze the exercise: the microwave creates an electromagnetic wave of frequency F = 2.45 GHz, this wave is introduced into the microwave cavity and is reflected on the metal walls, which is why one or more standing waves are formed.

The electric field of the standing wave is

            I = E²

            E =√I

where I is the intensity of the radiation.

What is it

             I = P / A

where P is the effective emission power, almost all the power of the microwave and A is the area of ​​the cavity, in the most used microwaves

P = 700 W and the area is A = 25 x 18 cm² = 0.045 m²

             I = 700 / 0.045

             I = 15555.56 W/m²

let's calculate the electric field

            E = √15555.56

            E = 124.7 N / C

A homing pigeon starts from rest and accelerates uniformly at +4.00 m/s squared for 10.0 seconds. What is its velocity after the
zavuch27 [327]
'  +4 m/s² ' means that the pigeon's speed is  4 m/s greater every second.

Starting from zero speed, after 10 seconds, its speed is 

                           (10 x 4m/s)  =  40 m/s.

We can't say anything about its velocity, because we have
no information regarding the direction of its flight.

A ball rolls for 8 seconds and travels 24 meters. How fast was it traveling?
belka [17]

Answer:

The speed of the ball was, v = 3 m/s

Explanation:

Given data,

The time period of the ball, t = 8 s

The distance the ball rolled, d = 24 m

The velocity of an object is defined as the object's displacement to the time taken. The formula for the velocity is,

                              v = d / t      m/s

Substituting the given values in the above equation,

                               v = 24 / 8

                                  = 3 m/s

Hence, the speed of the ball was, v = 3 m/s
