An airplane flies in a horizontal circle of radius 500 m at a speed of 150 m/s. If the radius were changed to 1000 m, but the sp

laila [671]

Answer:

The centripetal acceleration changed by a factor of 0.5

Explanation:

Given;

first radius of the horizontal circle, r₁ = 500 m

speed of the airplane, v = 150 m/s

second radius of the airplane, r₂ = 1000 m

Centripetal acceleration is given as;

$a = \frac{v^2}{r}$

At constant speed, we will have;

$v^2 =ar\\\\v = \sqrt{ar}\\\\at \ constant\ v;\\\sqrt{a_1r_1} = \sqrt{a_2r_2}\\\\a_1r_1 = a_2r_2\\\\a_2 = \frac{a_1r_1}{r_2} \\\\a_2 = \frac{a_1*500}{1000}\\\\a_2 = \frac{a_1}{2} \\\\a_2 = \frac{1}{2} a_1$

a₂ = 0.5a₁

Therefore, the centripetal acceleration changed by a factor of 0.5

1. What is the potential energy of a 4-kilogram potted plant that is on a 1 meter-high plant

Yuri [45]

39.2 J

Explanation:

Step 1:

To find the potential energy the following formula is used.

Potential Energy = m × g × h

Where,

m = Mass

g = Acceleration due to gravity

h = Height

Step 2:

Here m = 4 kg, g = 9.8 m/s², h = 1 m

Potential Energy = ( 4 × 9.8 × 1)

= 39.2 J

Kelli weighs 425 N, and she is sitting on a playground swing that hangs 0.36 m above the ground. Her mom pulls the swing back an

kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

V = 3.54 m/s

Explanation:

Using the conservation of energy:

$E_i = E_f$

so:

$wh = \frac{1}{2}mV^2$

where w is te weigh of kelly, h the distance that kelly decends, m is the mass of kelly and V the velocity in the lowest position.

So, the mass of kelly is:

m = 425N/9.8 = 43.36 Kg

and h is:

h = 1m-0.36m =0.64m

then, replacing values, we get:

$(425N)(0.64m) = \frac{1}{2}(43.36kg)v^2$

Solving for v:

V = 3.54 m/s

According to Kepler's Second Law the radius vector drawn from the Sun to a planet Multiple Choice is the same for all planets. s

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

sweeps out equal areas in equal times.

Explanation:

As we know that there is no torque due to Sun on the planets revolving about the sun

so we will have

$\tau_{net} = 0$

now we have

$\frac{dL}{dt}= 0$

now we also know that

$Area = \frac{1}{2}r^2d\theta$

so rate of change in area is given as

$\frac{dA}{dt} = \frac{1}{2}r^2\frac{d\theta}{dt}$

so we will have

$\frac{dA}{dt} = \frac{1}{2}r^2\omega$

$\frac{dA}{dt} = \frac{L}{2m}$

since angular momentum and mass is constant here so

all planets sweeps out equal areas in equal times.
