8 0

Answer:

The 80 mph car

Because the formula says 1/2 mass but for the velocity it is squared

A 790kg car moving at 7 m/s takes a turn around a circle with a radius of 20 m. Determined the net force (in Newton’s) acting up

prisoha [69]

1935.5 N is the "net force" acting on a car.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Given that,

Mass of the car is 790 kg.

Velocity of the car is 7 m/s. (v)

It turned around with 20 m. (r)

We know that, Net force = m × a

$\text { Here, acceleration of the car is radial acceleration } a_{\mathrm{rad}}=\frac{v^{2}}{r}$

$\mathrm{a}_{\mathrm{rad}}=\frac{7^{2}}{20}$

$\mathrm{a}_{\mathrm{rad}}=\frac{49}{20}$

$a_{\text {rad }}=2.45 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$

Now, Net force = m × a

Net force = 790 × 2.45

Net force = 1935.5 N

Jake calculates that the frequency of a wave is 500 hertz and that the wave is moving at 1,250 m/s. What is the wavelength of th

Neko [114]

Frequency (f) = 500 hz (SI)
Velocity (V) = 1250 m/s (SI)
Wavelength (Lambda) = ? meters

$v = \lambda \times f$
$1250 = \lambda \times 500 \\ \lambda = 1250 \div 500 \\ \lambda = 2.5 \: meters$

Why a body in uniform velocity is zero acceleration ?

seropon [69]

Uniform velocity means no Net force and therefore no acceleration. Acceleration only happens when the velocity changes.
