Answer:

<h2>230476.19km</h2>

Explanation:

Step one:

given

Force F= 210N

mass m= 1600kg

velocity v=5500m/s

Step two

Required is the radius r

the expression for the force is

F_c = \frac{mv^2}{r}

substitute

210=1600*5500^2/r

cross multiply we have

210r=48400000000

divide both side by 210

r=230476190.476m

r=230476.19km

nalin [4]

Answer:

The initial velocity of the cart was 0.91m/s.

Explanation:

When the car comes to a stop it has delivered all of its kinetic energy to the spring; therefore,

\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2 = \dfrac{1}{2}  mv^2

solving for v we get:

v = x\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m} },\\

we put in k = 4.21*10^{5}N/m, m = 5.18*10^{4}kg, and x = 0.32m to get:

v = (0.32m)\sqrt{\dfrac{4.21*10^5}{5.18*10^4} },\\

\boxed{v = 0.91m/s.}

Which does not provide a significant voltage difference in a circuit?
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

<em>b - wires</em>

Explanation:

cells , dry cells , electrical outlets are all responsible for the varying electron pressure/ potential difference hence wires is our answer because wires are just conductors which can only influence resistance.

El espectro visible en el aire está comprendido entre la longitud de onda 450 nm del color azul, Determina la velocidad de propa
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

v = 2,99913 10⁸ m / s

Explanation:

The velocity of propagation of a wave is

         v = λ f

in the case of an electromagnetic wave in a vacuum the speed that speed of light

         v = c

When the wave reaches a material medium, it is transmitted through a resonant type process, whereby the molecules of the medium vibrate at the same frequency as the wave, as the speed of the wave decreases the only way that they remain the relationship is that the donut length changes in the material medium

         λ = λ₀ / n

where n is the index of refraction of the material medium.

Therefore the expression is

           v = \frac{\lambda_o}{n} f

Let's look for the frequency of blue light in a vacuum

           f =\frac{c }{\lambda_o}  

           f = \frac{3 \ 10^8}{450 \ 10^{-9}}

           f = 6.667 10¹⁴ Hz

the refractive index of air is tabulated

           n = 1,00029

let's calculate

           v = \frac{450 \ 10^{-9} }{1.00029}  \ 6.667 \ 10^{14}450 10-9 / 1,00029 6,667 1014

            v = 2,99913 10⁸ m / s

we can see that the decrease in speed is very small
