A car is moving in uniform circular motion. If the cars speed were to double to keep the car moving with the same radius the acc
Stells [14]

Answer:

<em>The centripetal acceleration would increase by a factor of 4</em>

<em>Correct choice: B.</em>

Explanation:

<u>Circular Motion</u>

The circular motion is described when an object rotates about a fixed point called center. The distance from the object to the center is the radius. There are other magnitudes in the circular motion like the angular speed, tangent speed, and centripetal acceleration. The formulas are:

v_t=w\ r

\displaystyle a_c=\frac{v_t^2}{r}

If the speed is doubled and the radius is the same, then

\displaystyle a_c=\frac{(2v_t)^2}{r}

\displaystyle a_c=4\frac{v_t^2}{r}

The centripetal acceleration would increase by a factor of 4

Correct choice: B.

When looking at a food label, to be considered a good source of a nutrient, the nutrient must be? A.More than 20% of your daily
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

A. More than 20% of your daily recommended amount.

Explanation:

Reading food labels can be tricky. The percent daily value listed on the right of all food labels lets you know what percent out of the recommended daily intake of each nutrient you are consuming in that specific food.

To check if the food you're consuming is a good source of that nutrient you need in higher amount, the nutrient must be labeled 20% or higher.

The rule used here is called the 5/20 rule. According to this rule, A nutrient that is 5% or below is considered less and a nutrient which is labeled 20% or higher is considered good enough in that food source.

Why do areas with low altitude have warmer air than areas with high altitude
barxatty [35]

Answer:

Air at higher altitude is under less pressure than air at lower altitude because there is less weight of air above it, so it expands (and cools), while air at lower altitude is under more pressure so it contracts (and heats up).

A child drops a ball from a window. The ball strikes the ground in 3.0 seconds. What is the velocity of the ball the instant bef
inessss [21]

Answer:

29.396988 m/s

Explanation:

Really, it depends on where the child is when he drops the ball - e.g., which planet he is on, and his distance from the center of that planet.

I'll assume that the child is on Earth at sea level at the equator, so that his distance from the geocenter is 6378000 meters.

The acceleration, g, is found from

g = GM/r²

G = 6.6743e-11 m³ kg⁻¹ sec⁻²

M = 5.9724e+24 kg

r = 6.378e+6 m

g = 9.799086 m sec⁻²

An approximate answer is found from an equation from constant acceleration kinematics:

v = gt

t = 3.0 sec

v = 29.397259 m/s

Now, the above method is an approximation that makes the technically incorrect assumption that the acceleration of gravity is a constant throughout the entire fall. You get away with it because the drop is very short. In another situation, it might not be. So it would be nice to develop a more accurate method that does not assume constant gravitational acceleration. For that, we begin with the Vis Viva equation:

v = √[GM(2/r − 1/a)]

Here,

a = the semimajor axis of a plunge orbit, which is equal to half of the apoapsis distance of 6378000+h, where

h = the altitude from which the ball is dropped

We can (using some math) develop the following equation:

t − t₀ = √[d/(2GM)] { √(rd−r²) + d arctan √(d/r−1) }

t − t₀ = 3 sec

r = 6378000 meters

d = r + h

Using an iterative method (e.g. Newton's or Danby's), we can determine that the altitude,

h = 44.0954 meters

So,

d = 6378044.09538 meters

a = d/2 = 3189022.04769 meters

Now we can calculate that

v = 29.396988 m/s

This is the more nearly correct answer because it takes into account the variability of the gravitational acceleration during the fall.
