A particle moves horizontally in uniform circular motion, over a horizontal xy plane. At one instant, it moves through the point

seropon [69]

since centripetal acceleration is always towards the center of the circle

so at the given position where speed and acceleration is given the center coordinate will be towards the center of circle

also we know that

$a_c = \frac{v^2}{r}$

$11.6 = \frac{2.5^2}{R}$

$R = 0.54 m$

so the coordinates of the center will be

$(x, y) = (3.20 , (3.5 + 0.54))$

$(x, y) = (3.20, 4.04)$

so the coordinate is (3.20 m, 4.04 m)

Which of these factors will increase the speed of a sound wave in air?

Artemon [7]

<h3>Answer;</h3>

-Temperature

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Sound is a type of mechanical wave, which means it requires a material medium for transmission. It results from the vibration of particles.
The speed of sound in mediums varies depending on the property of the medium and a number of other factors which includes; temperature, pressure, and humidity.
Temperature increases the speed of sound wave as particles at higher temperatures tend to possess more energy and thus they will vibrate faster and thus the sound wave will travel faster.

A child whirls a 3.00 kg ball on a string .50 m from the axis of rotation in a horizontal circle. The ball makes 1 revolution in

melamori03 [73]

Answers:

a) $0.5 m/s^{2}$

b) $1.5 N$

Explanation:

a) The centripetal acceleration $a_{c}$ of an object moving in a uniform circular motion is given by the following equation:

$a_{c}=\omega^{2} r$

Where:

$\omega=1 \frac{rev}{s}$ is the angular velocity of the ball

$r=0.5 m$ is the radius of the circular motion, which is equal to the length of the string

Then:

$a_{c}=(1 \frac{rev}{s})^{2} 0.5 m$

$a_{c}=0.5 m/s^{2}$ This is the centripetal acceleration of the ball

b) On the other hand, in this circular motion there is a force (centripetal force $F$ ) that is directed towards the center and is equal to the tension ( $T$ ) in the string:

$F=T=m. a_{c}$

Where $m=3 kg$ is the mass of the ball

Hence:

$T=(3 kg)(0.5 m/s^{2})$

$T=1.5 N$ This is the tension in the string
