Given that,

Mass of the object, m = 1 kg

It moves in a circle of radius 0.5 m with a speed of 5 m/s

To find,

The direction of the acceleration.

Solution,

Whenever an object moves in a circular path, the only force that acts on its is centripetal force which is given by the formula as follows :

F=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

The centripetal acceleration acts in the direction of force. It acts along the radius of the circular path. In this figure, the direction of the acceleration is shown at point d.

How does convection current helps cooling the system of engines
Ede4ka [16]
As the engine heats up, a natural circulation starts, as coolant rises through the engine block by convection. It passes through the top hose, and into the radiator. Inside the radiator, heat is removed from the coolant as it falls from the top to the bottom.

A Lemon falls off a blimp and hits the ground 14 seconds later. How fast was it moving before it hits the ground?
Luda [366]

Answer: Lemon blossoms falling off a potted lemon tree may also be caused by cool drafts, as well as under or over watering. A lemon tree dropping flowers may be a sign of drought or other changes in watering. When water is scarce, a lemon tree will drop flowers or fruit to conserve energy. Flooding, waterlogged soil or over-watering can also cause ...

An airplane is flying in a horizontal circle at a speed of 480 km/h. If its wings are tilted 40° to the horizontal, what is the
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

r = 2161.9 m

Explanation:

Aerodynamic lift(L) is perpendicular to the wing, which is tilted 40 degrees to the horizontal.

Since the plane is moving in a horizontal circle, the vertical component of the lift must cancel the weight W of the airplane, but the horizontal component is the centripetal force that keeps it in a circle.

L is perpendicular to wing at angle θ with respect to horizontal

Thus,

Vertical component of lift is:

L cosθ = W = mg

Thus, m = L cosθ / g - - - - (eq1)

Horizontal component of lift is:

L sinθ = centripetal force = mv² / r - - - - (eq2)

Combining equations 1 and 2,we have;

L sinθ = (L cosθ / g)(v² / r)

L cancels out on both sides to give;

tanθ = v²/ rg

r = v² / (g tanθ)

We are given;

velocity; v = 480 km/hr = 480 x 10/36 = 133.33 m/s

r = 133.33²/[(9.8) tan(40)] = 2161.9 m

The melting point of potassium thiocyanate determined by a student in the laboratory turned out to be 174.5 oC. The accepted val
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

0.75%

Explanation:

Measured value of melting point of potassium thiocyanate = 174.5 °C

Actual value of melting point of potassium thiocyanate = 173.2 °C

<em>Error in the reading = |Experimental value - Theoretical value|</em>

<em>= |174.5 - 173.2|</em>

<em>= |1.3|</em>

<em>Percentage error = (Error / Theoretical value) × 100</em>

<em>= (1.3 / 173.2)×100</em>

<em>= 0.75 %</em>

∴ Percentage error in the reading is 0.75%
