A child is twirling a 0.0113-kg ball on a string in a horizontal circle whose radius is 0.147 m. The ball travels once around th

e circle in 0.388 s. (a) Determine the centripetal force acting on the ball. (b) If the speed is doubled, by what factor does the centripetal force increase

Answer:

0.435 N

The centripetal force increases by a factor of 4

Explanation:

Let the centripetal force be F

F =mv^2/r

m= mass of the object

v = linear velocity of the object

r = radius of the circular path

but v = 2πr/T = 2 * 3.142 * 0.147 / 0.388

v = 2.38 m/s

F = 0.0113 * (2.38)^2/0.147

F= 0.435 N

if v= 2v

Then;

F = m(2v)^2/r

F = m4v^2/r

F= 4mv^2/r

The centripetal force increases by a factor of 4

Answer:

Please find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

When you calculate the SLOPE of a line segment, what does the SLOPE represent? (Choose all that apply) the Distance traveled the Displacement the Velocity the Acceleration None of the above

The slope of any time graph can not give you distance or displacement except for position - time graph.

When you plot either distance or displacement against time, that is, distance time graph or displacement time graph, you can get speed or velocity as the slope of the line segment.

You can only acceleration as a slope in a line of best fit if velocity is plotted against time. That is, in a velocity time graph.

How much energy is needed to raise a 50kg block up from the ground to a height of 5 meters?​
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

The answer to your question is    Pe = 2452.5 J

Explanation:

Data

mass = 50 kg

height = 5 m

gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Process

The energy of this process is Potential energy which is proportional to the mass of the body, the gravity and the height of the body.

           Pe = mgh

Substitution

           Pe = (50)(5)(9.81)

Simplification

           Pe = 2452.5 J

Help me with this???
Vikentia [17]

Yo sup??

Average velocity=total distance covered/total time taken

total distance covered=4 + 8=12 miles

total time taken=6 hours

Therefore

average velocity=12/6

=2 miles/hour

Hope this helps

When atoms are split, they release energy. this concept applies to
balu736 [363]
This applies to nuclear reactions, specifically nuclear fission.

This huge release of energy has been used in atomic bombs and in the nuclear reactors that generate electricity.
