The object takes 0.5 seconds to complete one rotation, so its rotational speed is 1/0.5 rot/s = 2 rot/s.

Convert this to linear speed; for each rotation, the object travels a distance equal to the circumference of its path, or 2<em>π</em> (1.2 m) = 2.4<em>π</em> m ≈ 7.5 m, so that

2 rot/s = (2 rot/s) • (2.4<em>π</em> m/rot) = 4.8<em>π</em> m/s ≈ 15 m/s

thus giving it a centripetal acceleration of

<em>a</em> = (4.8<em>π</em> m/s)² / (1.2 m) ≈ 190 m/s².

Then the tension in the rope is

<em>T</em> = (50 kg) <em>a</em> ≈ 9500 N.

You're driving your new sports car at 85 mph over the top of a hill that has a radius of curvature of 525 m.
Bumek [7]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of the sports car, v = 85 mph = 37.99 m/s

The radius of curvature, r = 525 m

Let W_N is the normal weight and W_A is the apparent weight of the person. Its apparent weight is given by :

W_A=mg-\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

So, \dfrac{W_A}{W_N}=\dfrac{mg-\dfrac{mv^2}{r}}{mg}

\dfrac{W_A}{W_N}=\dfrac{g-\dfrac{v^2}{r}}{g}

\dfrac{W_A}{W_N}=\dfrac{9.8-\dfrac{(37.99)^2}{525}}{9.8}

\dfrac{W_A}{W_N}=0.719

or

\dfrac{W_A}{W_N}=71.9\%

Hence, this is the required solution.

Acceleration is positive when you are speeding up.
Vikki [24]

Answer:

B Negative

Explanation:

Its negative because when your going 25 mph your moving faster and when your coming up to the stop sign you will start to slow down going 10 mph then 0 mph when you reach the stop sign so it will be negative.
