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>

Ghella [55]

Answer:

Period of brightness variation and luminosity.

Explanation:

The Cepheid variables are used as distance indicators. This requires estimation of periods and (usually) intensity-mean magnitudes in order to establish a period—apparent luminosity relation. It is particularly important for the techniques employed to be as accurate and efficient as possible.

Object 1 of mass m moves with speed v in the positive direction. Object 2 of mass 3 m moves with speed 4 v in the negative x-dir
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

This means that the kinetic energy of second object is 48times that of the first object

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its motion e.g motion of an accelerating car. Mathematically,

Kinetic energy = 1/2mv² where;

m is the mass of the object

v is the velocity of the object

If Object 1 of mass m moves with speed v in the positive direction, its kinetic energy will be expressed as;

K1 = 1/2mv²

For Object 2 of mass 3m moving with speed 4v in the negative x-direction, its kinetic energy can be expressed as;

K2 = 1/2(3m)(4v)²

K2 = 1/2(3m)(16v²)

K2 = (3m)(8v²)

K2 = 24mv²

To compare the kinetic energy of both bodies, we will take the ratio of K2:K1 to have;

K2/K1 = 24mv²/(1/2)mv²

K2/K1 = 24/(1/2)

K2/K1 = 48

K2 = 48K1

This means that the kinetic energy of second object is 48times that of the first object and moving in the negative x direction since the body of mass 3m initially moves in the negative x direction.
