Two creatures sit on a horizontal frictional rotating platform. The platform rotates at a constant speed. The creatures do not s

lip off as it rotates.
ASSUME:

Red has a mass of 5 kg

Red is 1.5 m from the center

Red has a speed of 9 m/s

Blue has a mass of 25 kg

Blue has a speed of 1.8 m/s

The force of friction on Red is EQUAL to the force of friction on Blue





DETERMINE:

How far from the center is Blue

Answer:

M v^2 / R = centripetal force

For Red: M v^2 / R = 5 * 9^2 / 1.5 = 270

For Blue M v^2 / R = 270 = 25 * 1.8^2 / Rb

So Rb = 25 * 1.8^2 / 270 = .3 m

If the rifle is stopped by the hunter's shoulder in a distance of 3.23 cm, what is the magnitude of the average force exerted on
never [62]

By conservation of momentum, the initial recoil speed of the rifle is: 
u = 904kg * 0.0106 kg / 3.53 kg = 2.7146 m/s 

The final recoil speed v is zero in a distance of d = 0.0346 m 

So the rifle's acceleration is a = (0 - u^2) / 2*d = -2.7146^2 / 2*.0323 m/s^2 
a = -114.07m/s^2

What is projectile motion​
Georgia [21]

pls follow me

Explanation:

A projectile is an object upon which the only force is gravity. The horizontal motion of the projectile is the result of the tendency of any object in motion to remain in motion at constant velocity. Due to the absence of horizontal forces, a projectile remains in motion with a constant horizontal velocity.
