Answer:

Velocity vectors are always perpendicular to the circle.

Acceleration vectors point toward the center of the circle.

Velocity vectors are the same length.

Explanation:

(THESE ARE NOT MY WORDS BTW)

1) Acceleration and velocity are vectorial quantities, which means they have magnitude and direction.

2) In a circular motion velocity direction changes all the time, which means that it is accelerated.

3) In a uniform circular motiion, the velocity changes in a constant value. This is the rate of change of velocity, which is the magnitude of the acceleration, is constant (uniform).

4) The velocity is perpendicular to the path, i.e. the circle. You can see it if you think that if the object stopped changing the direction, then the object would follow a straight path (as per inertia principle). That is why this velocity is called tangential velocity (to differentiate it of the angular velocity).

This is what the option C says "Velocity vectors are always perpendicular to the circle". Then this is true.

5) The constant change of direction in a circular path, means that the object is been pushed, accelerated, toward the center of a circle. This is, all the time the object in motion tries to follow the perpendicular path but a push (a force) directed to the center of the circle changes its direction. Such force accelerates the object toward the center of the circle. So, the acceleration vectors point toward the center of the circle, which is what the option D says. So, this is also true.

6) Since the motion is uniform, the magnitude or length of the velocity vectors are always the same, are constant. So, the option E. is also true.

An object has traveled 20 meters in 40 seconds what is its average speed
Mice21 [21]

Hello,


To solve we need to know the formula for speed

The formula is D/T=S     (Distance of time=speed)

Now all we have to do is plug in the numbers.

20/40= 1/2 or 0.5

SO the speed is 0.5 m/s


Have a great day!

Suppose that, from measurements in a microscope, you determine that a certain bacterium covers an area of 1.50 μm2. Convert this
Paladinen [302]
1 m = 1 000 000 ym

converted other way we can say that:

1 ym = 10^{-6} m

Now, since we have ym^2 which is ym*ym which means:
1 ym^2 = (10^{-6}) ^2  =  10^{-12} m

we have 1,5 ym^2 which means that answer is:
1.5* 10^{-12} m

"Compared to infrared radiation, does ultraviolet radiation have longer or shorter wavelengths? Does ultraviolet radiation have
balu736 [363]

Answer:Ultraviolet radiation has shorter wavelengths and higher energy than infrared radiation.

Explanation: Electromagnetic radiation radiations which have both electrical and magnetic properties,they can be transmitted through space or through a medium.

It includes Gamma radiation, infra-red, visible light, Ultraviolet radiation etc they occur with different wavelength, the lower the wavelength the higher the Energy dissipated per photon. According to their order of decreasing wavelength and increased energy they are classified as follows.

RADIO WAVE, MICRO WAVE, INFRA-RED, VISIBLE LIGHT, ULTRAVIOLET RAY, X-RAY, GAMMA RAYS.
