As always,. F = M A. Centripetal acceleration = V-squared / R. So F=M V-squared/R. =. 85 x 225 / 20. = 956.25 Newton's (about 215 pounds). That's the force required to keep that mass moving at that speed around that circle. If the force is less, or not there, then the 85 kg moves slower, or leaves that path.

A man inside an insulated metallic cage does not receive shock when the cage is highly charge .explain.
Luba_88 [7]

A man inside an insulated metallic cage does not receive shock when the cage is highly charged because the whole charge reside on outer surface of the cage.

If the cage was a non-conductive cage, then the current cannot pass through the cage so it cannot affect the person in the cage.

For example- If you are seated in a car (metal body) and the car is hit with lightning, it is very unlikely that the person in the car would be hit with the lightning.

In addition to gravity, what is the other predominant force that affects the motion of a pendulum?
konstantin123 [22]

When we're working problems that involve a pendulum, we almost always IGNORE anything else besides gravity.  

Anything else besides gravity that could influence the motion of a pendulum is something that we would eliminate if we could.

Those are air resistance, mass of the string, friction at the top suspension point, and the Coriolis force, due to the Earth's rotation, that tries to change the plane of the pendulum's swing.

This question is probably fishing for the answer "<em>friction</em>".

Answer:

They are caused by outward fluctuations of the sun's magnetic field.

They tend to occur during active periods of the solar cycle.

Explanation:

While sun spots will appear darker than the surrounding surface, flares will tend to appear brighter. CME's are associated with massive flares.
