Answer:

E) True. The girl has a larger tangential acceleration than the boy.

Explanation:

In this exercise they do not ask us to say which statement is correct, for this we propose the solution to the problem.

Angular and linear quantities are related

          v = w r

          a = α r

the boy's radius is r₁ = 1.2m the girl's radius is r₂ = 1.8m

as the merry-go-round rotates at a constant angular velocity this is the same for both, but the tangential velocity is different

          v₁ = w 1,2 (boy)

          v₂ = w 1.8 (girl)

whereby

          v₂> v₁

reviewing the claims we have

          a₁ = α 1,2

          a₂ = α 1.8

          a₂> a₁

A) False. Tangential velocity is different from zero

B) False angular acceleration is the same for both

C) False. It is the opposite, according to the previous analysis

D) False. Angular acceleration is equal

E) True. You agree with the analysis above,

Describing Momentum Calculatthe momentum of cars A and answer the question Car A: Mass: 1,000 kilograms Velocity: 40 meters/seco
sertanlavr [38]
Momentum is a protector the mass and the velocity of a moving object.
Momentum= mass*speed
For Car A: Mass:1,000 kilograms Velocity: 40 meters/second;
Momentum=1,000 kg*40 m/s
=40000kg.m/s
For Car B: Mass: 4,000 kilograms Velocity 10 meters/second;
Momentum=4000kg*10m/s
=40000kg.m/s
Both cars require the same amount of force to stop. This is because they have the same momentum.

A car is stopped for a traffic signal. When the light turns green, the car accelerates, increasing its speed from zero to 5.27 m
jeyben [28]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

From Newton's law; the rate of change of momentum is proportional to the impressed force. Hence;

F.t = mv- mu

F= force

t= time

m= mass

V= final velocity

u = initial velocity

since u = 0, mv= 0

F= MV/t

F= 69.8 × 5.27/0.833

F= 442 N

Impulse = Ft= 442 × 0.833= 368 Ns

A compound is made up of two or more of what?
jolli1 [7]
A compound is made up of two or more of atoms that are bonded together with each other via a chemical bonding. It is possible to break the compounds into separate smaller components by the process of chemical reaction. One very simple example of compound is water as it is made of two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen. Whenever atoms are joined together to create a compound, the atoms definitely loose their individual atomic properties. Other very commonly found compound is carbon dioxide. It is made up of one atom of carbon and two atoms of oxygen.

Two concentric, coplanar, circular loops of wire of different diameter carry currents in the same direction. Describe the nature
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

Both will be attractive in nature.

Explanation:

In the given case, the direction of the magnetic field is same in both loops as the direction of the current is same in both loops. When two parallel straight wire carrying current in the same direction are brought close to each other, the force between them is attractive in nature. In the same way,  when two coplanar, circular and concentric loops of wire are carrying current in the same direction, the force between them is attractive in nature. It can be checked by using right hand thumb rule.
