Answer:

c. Only the linear acceleration is zero.

Explanation:

The linear acceleration is defined as the rate of change of linear velocity. Since the bicycle is moving in the same direction, with the same speed, without speeding up or slowing down. Therefore, there will be no change in linear velocity and as a result, linear acceleration will be zero.

The angular acceleration is the rate of change of angular velocity. Since the angular velocity is changing its direction constantly. Therefore, it has a certain component of acceleration at all times called centripetal acceleration.

Therefore, the correct option is:

<u>c. Only the linear acceleration is zero.</u>

A bowling ball of mass 5 kg rolls down a slick ramp 20 meters long at a 30 degree angle to the horizontal. What is the work done
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

The work done by gravity during the roll is 490.6 J

Explanation:

The work (W) is:

W = F*d

<em>Where</em>:

F: is the force

d: is the displacement = 20 m

The force is equal to the weight (W) in the x component:

F = W_{x} = mgsin(\theta)

<em>Where:</em>

m: is the mass of the bowling ball = 5 kg

g: is the gravity = 9.81 m/s²    

θ: is the degree angle to the horizontal = 30°        

F = mgsin(\theta) = 5 kg*9.81 m/s^{2}*sin(30) = 24.53 N    

Now, we can find the work:

W = F*d = 24.53 N*20 m = 490.6 J      

Therefore, the work done by gravity during the roll is 490.6 J.

I hope it helps you!

If the magnitude of the electric field in air exceeds roughly 3 ✕ 106 n/c, the air breaks down and a spark forms. for a two-di
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer: 39.8 μC

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electric field generated by a capacitor is given by:

E = \frac{V}{d}

d is the distance between the plates.

For a capacitor, charge Q = CV where C is the capacitance and V is the voltage.

C =\frac{\epsilon_o A }{d}

where A is the area of the plate and ε₀ is the absolute permittivity.

substituting, we get

E = \frac{Q}{\epsilon_o A}

It is given that the magnitude of the electric field that can exist in the capacitor before air breaks down is, E = 3 × 10⁶ N/C.

radius of the plates of the capacitor, r = 69 cm = 0.69 m

Area of the plates, A = πr² = 1.5 m²

Thus, the maximum charge that can be placed on disks without a spark is:

Q = E×ε₀×A

⇒ Q = 3 × 10⁶ N/C × 8.85 × 10⁻¹² F/m × 1.5 m² = 39.8 × 10⁻⁶ C = 39.8 μC.
