Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration is the acceleration due to the movement of an object in a uniform circular motion. The acceleration is directed towards the center of the circle.

Centripetal acceleration is given by the formula:

a = v² / r; where v is the speed of the object and r is the radius of curvature (distance from object ot the center of circle).

Let us assume the car has a velocity of v m/s. For the curve with radius of curvature r:

a₁ = v² / r

For the curve with radius of curvature r = 2r:

a₂ = v² / 2r = (1/2)a₁

Therefore the centripetal acceleration is greater in the curve with radius pf curvature r and smaller in the curve with twice the radius of curvature of the other.

Answer: final Velocity v = 10.2m/s

Explanation:

Final speed v(t) is given as

v(t) = u + at .......1

Where; u = the initial speed

a = acceleration

t = time taken

The total distance travelled d is given as

d = ut + 1/2(at^2)

Given

d = 5.0m

u = 2.0m

a = g = 10m/s2 (acceleration due to gravity)

Substituting into the equation above we have

5 = 2t + 5t^2

5t^2 +2t -5 = 0

Applying the quadratic formula. We have;

t = 0.82s & t = -1.22s

t cannot be negative

t = 0.82s

From equation 1 above

v = 2.0m/s + 10(0.82)m/s

v = 10.2m/s

Answer:

Disruption to electricity power grid

Explanation:

We're looking a a solar flare. This will whip solar particles at high velocity into space and, If they are near earth, will interact with the earth's magnetic field. These magnetic changes will be measurable in the electric grid. Whether they are strong enough to cause "disruption" depends on a huge number of factors such as strength of and angles of the interacting magnetic fields and location of grid infrastructure,
