A train has a constant speed of 10 m/s around a track with a diameter of 45 m what is the centripal acceleration?

Physics
1 answer:
Bumek [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

a_{c}= 4.44\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

When an object goes on a circular movement, it has a centripetal acceleration that always points toward the center of the circle, it is the responsible of the change of direction in the movement of the object. and that centripetal acceleration is related with the speed in the next way:

a_{c}=\frac{v^{2}}{r}, with v the speed, r the radius of the track that is half of the diameter (22.5 m)

a_{c}=\frac{10^{2}}{22.5}

a_{c}= 4.44\frac{m}{s}

Two metal plates 15mm apart have a potential difference of 750v between them. The force on a small charged sphere placed between
Romashka [77]

Answer:

50,000 V/m

Explanation:

The electric field between two charged metal plates is uniform.

The relationship between potential difference and electric field strength for a uniform field is given by the equation

\Delta V=Ed

where

\Delta V is the potential difference

E is the magnitude of the electric field

d is the  distance between the plates

In this problem, we have:

\Delta V=750 V is the potential difference between the plates

d = 15 mm = 0.015 m is the distance between the plates

Therefore, rearranging the equation we find the strength of the electric field:

E=\frac{\Delta V}{d}=\frac{750}{0.015}=50,000 V/m

What does -9.8 m/s mean? And what does it mean if something has a negative velocity?
a_sh-v [17]

I can't guess what -9.8 m/s means until you tell me where it came from,
or what 'm/s' means.

If perhaps it has something to do with the acceleration of gravity on Earth,
then the correct figure is ' -9.8 m/s² '.  That means that any object that
has no other force acting on it except gravity has its speed changing by
9.8 meters per second every second.  Since it's gravity doing the job,
then the object's speed is either increasing down, or decreasing up. 

If an object has negative velocity, then it's moving in the direction opposite
to the direction that you decided to call positive when you started doing the
problem.

For example, if you decide that up is positive and down is negative, and
then somebody drops a stone from the top of a tall building, then the
gravitational force on the stone is negative (pointing down), its velocity
is negative (it's falling towards down), and its acceleration is negative (its
speed towards down is getting faster and faster).  Everything is negative,
only because you decided that up is positive and down is negative.  It's
nothing to be worried about.

A 10-kg object is pushed across a rough surface. It begins at rest and accelerates to a speed of 4 m/s in a distance of 5m. Whic
brilliants [131]

Answer:

Explanation:

Unbalanced Force according to newton's second law is the one which causes  the object to move or break its state of rest on application of force.

Here the object accelerate to a speed of 4 m/s and moves a distance of 5 m on application of force .

Thus we can say that the applied force is unbalanced in nature.
