Answer:

Centripetal acceleration of boy on a string is 47.02 m/s²

Explanation:

It is given that,

Radius of the circle, r = 1.8 m

Speed of the ball, v = 9.2 m/s

Centripetal acceleration is given by :

a_c=\dfrac{v^2}{r}

a_c=\dfrac{(9.2)^2}{1.8}

a_c=47.02\ m/s^2

Hence, the centripetal acceleration of a ball on a string that is whirled horizontally over a boy’s head is 47.02 m/s²

Well the centripetal acceleration would be 9.82 squared. That is the correct answer. I hope this helped you. Have a great day! :)

A person drives a car around a circular road with a constant speed of 20 m/s. The
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

16 m/s^2

Explanation:

acceleration tangential = (v^2)/r

a=400/25

a=16 m/s^2

Side note: next time, be more specific when asking about acceleration in circular motion. There's more than one type! Example:

angular acceleration=acceleration tangential/r

angular acc.=16/25

angular acc.=0.64 rad/s^2

A car is traveling at a speed of 20m/s and has a mass of 1200kg how much kinetic energy does it have
Oxana [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula for Kinetic Energy is

KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2. Filling in:

KE=\frac{1}{2}(1200)(20)^2 It looks like we only need 1 significant digit here but I'll give you 2 and you can round how you want.

KE = 2.4 × 10⁵ J

OLga [1]

Answer:

104 N

Explanation:

m = 1300 kg

a = 0.08m/s^2

F = 1300*0.08

F = 104 N

Newtons is the unit of force.

How does the molecular structure of a water molecule affect its polarity?
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

The polarity of water molecules means that molecules of water will stick to each other like when unlike charges attracts. This is called hydrogen bonding.

Polarity makes water a good solvent, gives it the ability to stick to itself (cohesion), stick to other substances (adhesion), and have surface tension (due to hydrogen bonding).

When the two hydrogen atoms bond with the oxygen, they attach to the top of the molecule. This molecular structure gives the water molecule polarity, or a lopsided electrical charge that attracts other atoms. The end of the molecule with the two hydrogen atoms is positively charged.
