1. When the object is waiting to be released, it is storing a lot of potential energy. When it is released, the potential energy that was once stored is converted into kinetic energy.
Answer:
Explanation:
The artificial gravity generated by the rotating space station is the same centripetal acceleration due to the rotational motion of the station, which is given by:
Here, r is the radius and v is the tangential speed, which is given by:
Here is the angular velocity, we replace (2) in (1):
Recall that .
Solving for :
Answer:
a=-1.58 m/s^2
Explanation:
Vo=34m/s
Vf=15m/s
t=12s
a= dV/dt = (Vf-Vo) /t = (15-34)/12
= - 19/12 = - 1.58m/s2
