Answer:
a. 15.4 seconds
b. 0.455 m/s
Explanation:
a. The carousel rotates at 0.13 rev/s.
This means that it takes the carousel 1 sec to make 0.13 of an entire revolution.
This means that time it will take to make a complete revolution is:
1 / 0.13 = 7.7 seconds
Therefore, the time it will take to make 2 revolutions is:
2 * 7.7 = 15.4 seconds
b. Let us calculate the linear velocity. Angular velocity is given as:
where v = linear velocity and r = radius
The radius of the circle is 3.5 m and the angular velocity is 0.13 rev/s, therefore:
0.13 = v / 3.5
v = 3.5 * 0.13 = 0.455 m/s
Linear velocity is 0.455 m/s
Answer:
It increases proportionally
Explanation:
The gravitational force between the Earth and an object on its surface is given by
where
G is the gravitational constant
M is the Earth's mass
m is the mass of the object
R is the Earth's radius
In this problem, the Earth's mass is increased, while the diameter (and therefore, the radius) doesn't change. From the equation, we see that the gravitational force is directly proportional to the Earth's mass: therefore, if the mass is increased, the force will increase as well by the same proportion (for example, if the mass is doubled, the force will double as well)
