A student of weight 659 N rides a steadily rotating Ferris wheel (the student sits upright). At the highest point, the magnitude
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

a) The student feel light

b) Nbottom = 758 N

c) N'top= 236 N

d) N'bottom= 1055 N

Explanation:

a) W= 659N , Ntop= 560N

W > Ntop ---> Student feel less weight

b)   Top:

∑F= W - Ntop = m.v²/R

m.v²/R = 659N - 560 N = 99 N

Bottom:

∑F= Nbottom- W = m.v²/R

Nbottom= W + m.v²/R = 659N + 99 N = 758N

c) W= 659 N , Ntop= 560 N , v'=2.v

N'top= ?

∑F= W - N'top = m.v'²/R

N'top= W - 4.m.v²/R

N'top = 659 N - 4. 99 N = 263 N

d)   N'bottom = ?

∑Fbottom= N'bottom- W = m.v'²/R

N'bottom = W + 4.m.v²/R = 659 N + 4. 99 N = 1055 N

A bus accelerates to 60 m/s to the east in 10 s. What is the buses acceleration? 2. A car traveling at 10.0 m/s to the west acce
professor190 [17]

Answers:

1) a=6\frac{m}{s^{2}}

2) t=8s

Explanation:

1) Acceleration a is defined as the variation of Velocity V in time t :  

a=\frac{V}{t}  (1)

A body also has acceleration when it changes its direction.

In this case we have a bus with a velocity of 60m/s to the east, that accelerates in a time 10s. So, we have to find the bus's acceleration:

a=\frac{60m/s}{10s}  (2)

a=6m/s^{2}  (3)  This is the bus's accelerration

2) Now we have a car that accelerates 2m/s^{2}  to the west in order to reach a speed of 16m/s in the same direction, and we have to find the time t it takes to the car to reach that velocity.

Therefore we have to find  t from (1):

t=\frac{V}{a}  (4)

t=\frac{16m/s}{2m/s^{2}}  (5)

Finally:

t=8s  (6)

What is meant by fundamental unit? write any two difference between mass and weight.​
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

Fundamental unit is any unit that is not dependent on other units and other units can be derived from them

Explanation:

Units such as Kilogram, Mass and Time are said to be fundamental units because they are independent.

Differences between Mass and weight;

1. Mass is the measure of the amount of matter in a body while weight is a measure of how the force of gravity acts upon that mass.

2. Mass is a scalar quantity while weight is a vector quantity

Sierra did 500 J of work to move her couch. If she exerts 250 N of force on the couch, how far did she move it?
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

2 m

Explanation:

Work = force × distance

500 J = 250 N × d

d = 2 m
