Answer:

Increase by a factor of 4.

Explanation:

The acceleration of a car moving with speed v in a circle of radius R is given by:

a=\frac{v^2}{R}.

Now if we double the speed v in the equation above, it becomes 2v. Thus:

a=\frac{v^2}{R}\:\: {\rightarrow}\:\: a_n=\frac{(2v)^2}{R}=4\frac{v^2}{R}=4a.

Therefore the acceleration is increased by a factor of 4.

Find the density of seawater at a depth where the pressure is 680 atm if the density at the surface is 1030 kg/m3. Seawater has
Pie

Answer:

1060.41kg/m^3

Explanation:

Bulk modulus is defined as the relative change in the volume of a body produced by a unit of compressive acting uniformly over its surface:

B=\rho _o \frac{\bigtriangleup P }{\bigtriangleup \rho}

Hence the density of the seawater at a depth of 680atm is calculated as:-

\rho=\rho_o +\bigtriangleup \rho=\rho_o(1+\frac{\bigtriangleup P}{B})\\\\=1030 \times (1+ \frac{(680-1)\times10^5}{2.3\times 10^9})\\=1060.41kg/m^3

What type of bond is formed if atoms donate electrons to other atoms when the elements are combined?

An object ends up at a final position of x=-55.25 meters after a displacement of -189.34 meters after a displacement of -189.34
Travka [436]

The initial position of the object was found to be 134.09 m.

<u>Explanation:</u>

As displacement is the measure of difference between the final and initial points. In other words, we can say that displacement can be termed as the change in the position of the object irrespective of the path followed by the object to change the path. So

Displacement = Final position - Initial position.

As the final position is stated as -55.25 meters and the displacement is also stated as -189.34 meters. So the initial position will be

Initial position of the object = Final position-Displacement

Initial position = -55.25 m - (-189.34 m) = -55.25 m + 189.34 m = 134.09 m.

Thus, the initial position for the object having a displacement of -189.34 m is determined as 134.09 m.
