What is the relation between force and acceleration​

Physics
1 answer:
Galina-37 [17]2 years ago
6 0

The acceleration of an object depends directly upon the net force acting upon the object, and inversely upon the mass of the object. As the force acting upon an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is increased. As the mass of an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is decreased.

On both the spring and fall equinoxes, the sun's rays are vertically overhead at the _______
Anni [7]

It is overhead at the equator, it is because the sun ray’s will be moving vertically as this will be directed at the equator. It is because if it moves vertically, it will hit or overhead the equator and this usually happens in spring and fall.

During the spin cycle of a washing machine, the clothes stick to the outer wall of the barrel as it spins at a rate as high as 1
Darya [45]

To answer the two questions, we need to know two important equations involving centripetal movement:

v = ωr (ω represents angular velocity <u>in radians</u>)

a = \frac{v^{2}}{r}

Let's apply the first equation to question a:

v = ωr

v = ((1800*2π) / 60) * 0.26

Wait. 2π? 0.26? 60? Let's break down why these numbers are written differently. In order to use the equation v = ωr, it is important that the units of ω is in radians. Since one revolution is equivalent to 2π radians, we can easily do the conversion from revolutions to radians by multiplying it by 2π. As for 0.26, note that the question asks for the units to be m/s. Since we need meters, we simply convert 26 cm, our radius, into meters. The revolutions is also given in revs/min, and we need to convert it into revs/sec so that we can get our final units correct. As a result, we divide the rate by 60 to convert minutes into seconds.

Back to the equation:

v = ((1800*2π)/60) * 0.26

v = (1800*2(3.14)/60) * 0.26

v = (11304/60) * 0.26

v = 188.4 * 0.26

v = 48.984

v = 49 (m/s)

Now that we know the linear velocity, we can find the centripetal acceleration:

a = \frac{v^{2}}{r}

a = \frac{49^{2}}{0.26}

a = 9234.6 (m/s^{2})

Wow! That's fast!

<u>We now have our answers for a and b:</u>

a. 49 (m/s)

b. 9.2 * 10^{3} (m/s^{2})

If you have any questions on how I got to these answers, just ask!

Below is the data from a gas law experiment comparing the pressure and the volume of a gas at a given temperature.
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

The combined gas equation relates three variables pressure, temperature and volume when the number of moles is constant.

The equation is PV / T = constant. Which is valid for a fixed number of moles of the gas.

You can derive the combined gas equation from the combination of Bolye's law, Charles' law and Gay-Lussac's law, which needs some algebra.

An astronaut inside a spacecraft, which protects her from harmful radiation, is orbiting a black hole at a distance of 120 km fr
mestny [16]

An astronaut inside a spacecraft, which protects her from harmful radiation, is orbiting a black hole at a distance of 120 km from its center. The black hole is 5.00 times the mass of the sun and has a Schwarzschild radius of 15.0 km. The astronaut is positioned inside the spaceship such that one of her 0.030 kg ears is 6.0 cm farther from the black hole than the center of mass of the spacecraft and the other ear is 6.0 cm closer.

What is the tension between her ears?

Would the astronaut find it difficult to keep from being torn apart by the gravitational forces?

Answer:

The tension between the ears = 2.07 KN

The astronaut will find it difficult to keep and will eventually be in trouble because the tension is now greater compared to the tension in the human tissues.

Explanation:

Given that:

Orbital radius of the spacecraft (R) = 120 Km = 120 × 10³ m

Mass of the black hole (m) = 5 \ * (M \ _{sun})

where : M_{sun} = 1.99*10^{33} \ kg

Then; we have:

 m = 5*(1.99*10^{30} \ kg ) \\ = 9.95*10^{30} kg

Schwarzchild radius of the black hole

r - 15.0 km

Mass of each ear m_{ear} = 0.030 \ kg

Farther distance between one ear and the black hole (d) = 6.0 cm

= 0.06 m

Closer distance between the other ear and the black home is (d) 6.0 cm

= 0.6 cm

NOW, If we assume that the tension force should be T; then definitely the two ears will posses the same angular velocity .

The net force on the ear closer to the black hole will be:

\frac{GMm_{ear} }{(R-d)}- T = m_{ear} (R -  d) \omega^2

\frac{GMm_{ear} }{(R-d)^2}- \frac{T}{(R-d)} = m_{ear} \omega^2 \ ----> \ (1)

The net force on the ear farther to the black hole is :

\frac{GMm_{ear} }{(R+d)}- T = m_{ear} (R +  d) \omega^2

\frac{GMm_{ear} }{(R+d)^2}- \frac{T}{(R+d)} = m_{ear} \omega^2 \ ----> \ (2)

Equating equation (1) and (2) & therefore making (T) the subject of the formula; we have:

T = \frac{3GMm_{ear}d}{R^3}

T = \frac{3(6.67*10^{-11}N.m^2/kg^2)(1.95*10^{30}kg)(0.03kg)(0.06m)}{(120*10^3m)^3}

T = 2073.9 N\\T = 2.07 KN

The tension between the ears = 2.07 KN

The astronaut will find it difficult to keep and will eventually be in trouble because the tension is now greater compared to the tension in the human tissues.
