Complete Question:

A purse at radius 2.00 m and a wallet at radius 3.00 m travel in uniform circular motion on the floor of a merry-go-round as the ride turns.

They are on the same radial line. At one instant, the acceleration of the purse is (2.00 m/s2 ) i + (4.00 m/s2 ) j .At that instant and in unit-vector notation, what is the acceleration of the wallet

Answer:

aw = 3 i + 6 j m/s2

Explanation:

  • Since both objects travel in uniform circular motion, the only acceleration that they suffer is the centripetal one, that keeps them rotating.
  • It can be showed that the centripetal acceleration is directly proportional to the square of the angular velocity, as follows:

       a_{c} = \omega^{2} * r (1)

  • Since both objects are located on the same radial line, and they travel in uniform circular motion, by definition of angular velocity, both have the same angular velocity ω.

       ∴ ωp = ωw (2)

           ⇒ a_{p} = \omega_{p} ^{2} * r_{p} (3)

               a_{w} = \omega_{w}^{2} * r_{w} (4)

  • Dividing (4) by (3), from (2), we have:

        \frac{a_{w} }{a_{p}} = \frac{r_{w} }{r_{p}}

  • Solving for aw, we get:

        a_{w} = a_{p} *\frac{r_{w} }{r_{p} } = (2.0 i + 4.0 j) m/s2 * 1.5 = 3 i +6j m/s2

DESCRIBE floods and droughts. What are their effects? EXPLAIN how they can be prevented
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

<u>EFFECTS: ( doughts)</u>

  1. There would be less water in the river for you and other people who live along the river to use.
  2. If we use too much water during times of normal rainfall, we might not have enough water when a drought happens.

<u>EFFECTS:( FLOODS)</u>

  1. The immediate impacts of flooding include loss of human life, damage to property, destruction of crops, loss of livestock, and deterioration of health conditions owing to waterborne diseases.
  2. power plants, roads and bridges are damaged and disrupted, some economic activities may come to a standstill, people are forced to leave their homes and normal life is disrupted.

How to prevent from flooding is :

  1. Construct buildings above flood levels.
  2. Tackle climate change

How to prevent from droughts :

  1. drought trends that may occur based on statistical and actual weather forecasts.
  2. In the U.S., the U.S. Drought Monitor provides a day-by-day visual of the drought conditions around the country.

* Hopefully this helps:) Mark me the brainliest:)!!!

A ball is thrown downward with an initial velocity of 12.1 m/s. How long will it take to reach a velocity of -24.5 m/s? (Negativ
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The sig figs are off in the answer (unless you use -9.81 for the acceleration due to gravity. My classes always use -9.8, which is 2 sig figs. But nevertheless, we can solve it!) Use the velocity formula:

v_f=v_0+at where vf is the final velocity, v0 is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration due to gravity, and t is the time in seconds. Filling in, using the fact that both the velocities are negative since the ball is going down:

-24.5 = -12.1 +(-9.8)t or

-24.5 = -12.1 - 9.8t and

-12.4 = -9.8t and divide to get that

t = 1.27 sec
