A father fashions a swing for his children out of a long rope that he fastens to the limb of a tall tree. As one of the children

swings from this rope that is 6.00 m long, his tangential speed at the bottom of the swing is 9.50 m/s. What is the centripetal acceleration, in m/s2, of the child at the bottom of the swing

Answer:

10.8n

Explanation:

For this case the centripetal force is given by:

Where,

m: mass of the object

v: tangential speed

r: rope radius

Substituting values in the equation we have:

Then, doing the corresponding calculations:

Answer:

The centripetal force exerted on the rope is:

Answer:

The centripetal acceleration of the child at the bottom of the swing is 15.04 m/s².

                     

Explanation:

The centripetal acceleration is given by:

a_{c} = \frac{v^{2}}{r}

Where:

v^{2}: is the tangential speed = 9.50 m/s

r: is the distance = 6.00 m

Hence, the centripetal acceleration is:

a_{c} = \frac{v^{2}}{r} = \frac{(9.50 m/s)^{2}}{6.00 m} = 15.04 m/s^{2}

Therefore, the centripetal acceleration of the child at the bottom of the swing is 15.04 m/s².

I hope it helps you!

Why does the cannon move backward when the cannon ball is shot?
seropon [69]

Answer:

This came to mind

Explanation:

when a cannon fires (in real life or in the movies) have noticed that the cannon recoils, sliding backwards after the explosion. Again, a non-zero net force on the cannon changes its momentum.

Which has the greater acceleration, a person going from 0 m/s to 10 m/s in 10 seconds or an ant going from 0 m/s to 0.25 m/s in
monitta

<u>P</u><u>e</u><u>r</u><u>s</u><u>o</u><u>n</u><u>-</u><u>1</u>

  • Initial velocity=u=0m/s
  • Final velocity=v=10m/s
  • Time=10s=t

\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=\dfrac{v-u}{t}

\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=\dfrac{10-0}{10}

\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=\dfrac{10}{10}

\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=1m/s^2

<u>P</u><u>e</u><u>r</u><u>s</u><u>o</u><u>n</u><u>-</u><u>2</u>

  • initial velocity=0m/s=u
  • Final velocity=v=0.25m/s
  • Time=t=2s

\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=\dfrac{0.25-0}{2}

\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=\dfrac{0.25}{2}

\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=0.125m/s^2

Person-1 is accelerating faster.

The figure shows two springs (k1 = 10 N/m and k2 = 20 N/m ) attached to a block that can slide on a frictionless surface. In the
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

Energy stored by left spring when compressed = 1/2 k x²

= .5 x 10 x .02² = .002 J .

Let compression in right spring = y

energy stored to right spring = 1/2 k y²

1/2 k y² = 0.002

.5 x 20 x y² = 0.002

y = .01414 m

= 1.4  cm
