Answer:

a) Centripetal force is 482.79 N towards center.

b) Centripetal force is 17.37 N towards center.

c) First centripetal force is 482.79 N which is greater than weight of 215.82 N

   First centripetal force is 17.37 N which is less than weight of 215.82 N

Explanation:

Centripetal force is given by the expression, F = mrω², m is the mass, r is the radius and ω is the angular velocity,

a) Mass, m = 22 kg

   Radius, r = 1.25 m

   Angular speed , ω = 40 rev /min = 4.19 rad/s

  Substituting

                     F = mrω²

                    F = 22 x 1.25 x 4.19² = 482.79 N

   Centripetal force is 482.79 N towards center.

b) Mass, m = 22 kg

   Radius, r = 8 m

   Angular speed , ω = 3 rev /min = 0.314 rad/s

  Substituting

                     F = mrω²

                    F = 22 x 8 x 0.314² = 17.37 N

   Centripetal force is 17.37 N towards center.

c) Weight = mg = 22 x 9.81 = 215.82 N

   First centripetal force is 482.79 N which is greater than weight of 215.82 N

   First centripetal force is 17.37 N which is less than weight of 215.82 N

A force of 30.0 N is applied to a 3.00 kg object for 3.00 seconds. Calculate the velocity experienced by the object.
olganol [36]

Answer:

Explanation:

F = ma and

a=\frac{v}{t}

We have F, we have m, but in order to solve for v, we need a.

30.0 = 3.00a so

a = 10.0 m/s/s. Plug that in for a in the second equation and solve for v:

10.0=\frac{v}{3.00} so

v = 10.0(3.00) so

v = 30.0 m/s
