Answer: Yes and no.

Explanation: Mass is the amount of matter in an object, whereas weight is the force exerted on an object by gravity. Objects on the surface of the earth have weight, although sometimes the weight is difficult to measure.

A amusement park moves riders in a circle at a rate of 6.0m/s if the radius is 9.0 meters what is the acceleration of the ride

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Centripetal acceleration is (speed-squared) / (radius)

CA = (6 m/s)² / (9 m)

CA = (36 m²/s²) / (9 m)

CA = (36/9) (m²/m·s²)

<em>Centripetal acceleration = 4 m/s²</em>

The rate traveled from Amarillo to Austin by a bus averages 60 miles per hour. The bus arrived in Austin after eight hours of tr

jeyben [28]

Answer:

the car would arrive after 10 hr to Austin.

Explanation:

bus average from amarllo to austin = 60 miles per hour

time takne by bus to reach austin = 8 hr

automobile average from amarllo to austin = 60 miles per hour

from the information given in the question:

60 mph --- 8 h

48 mph --- x h

By using The inverse variation:

60 : 48 = x : 8

60* 8 = 48* x

480 = 48*x

x = 480/48

x = 10 h

the car would arrive after 10 hr to Austin.

"A steel rotating-beam test specimen has an ultimate strength of 120 kpsi. Estimate the life of the specimen if it is tested at

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

life (N) of the specimen is 117000 cycles

Explanation:

given data

ultimate strength Su = 120 kpsi

stress amplitude σa = 70 kpsi

solution

we first calculate the endurance limit of specimen Se i.e

Se = 0.5× Su .............1

Se = 0.5 × 120

Se = 60 kpsi

and we know strength of friction f = 0.82

and we take endurance limit Se is = 60 kpsi

so here coefficient value (a) will be

a = $\frac{(f\times Su)^2}{Se}$ ......................1

put here value and we get

a = $\frac{(0.82\times 120)^2}{60}$

a = 161.4 kpsi

so coefficient value (b) will be

b = $-\frac{1}{3}log\frac{(f\times Su)}{Se}$

b = $-\frac{1}{3}log\frac{(0.82\times 120)}{60}$

b = −0.0716

so here number of cycle N will be

N = $(\frac{ \sigma a}{a})^{1/b}$

put here value and we get

N = $(\frac{ 70}{161.4})^{1/-0.0716}$

N = 117000

so life (N) of the specimen is 117000 cycles

Which best explains why people see carrots as orange

Andru [333]

Beta Carotene is the reason why a carrot is orange. Carotene is a color pigment that is found in large quantities in carrots and it has health benefits as well. The main health benefit of carotene is that our body converts it into vitamin A which is essential.
