Answer:

a_{c} =  13.46\ m/s^2

Explanation:

The motion of the tethered ball around the pole can be modeled as uniform circular motion. The acceleration of the objects executing uniform circular motion is due to the change in direction of their velocity. This is called centripetal acceleration. It is given by the following formula:

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

where,

ac = centripetal acceleration = ?

v = speed of ball = 3.5 m/s

r = distance of ball from center of rotation = 0.91 m

Using these values in equation, we get:

a_{c} = \frac{(3.5\ m/s)^2}{0.91\ m}\\\\a_{c} =  13.46\ m/s^2

It takes 100,832 J of work to lift an elevator 18.3 meters. If this is done in 21.0 seconds, what is the average power of the el
Aneli [31]

Answer:

P=4801.5

Explanation:

Given :

work done = W = 100,832 J

time = 21.0 sec

Find:

P = ?

Formula:

P = W/t

Solution:

P = W/t

P = 100,832/21.0

  =  4801.52 J/s or Watts

The starter motor of a car engine draws an electric current of 20.0 A from the battery. The copper wire to the motor is 5.90 mm
insens350 [35]

Answer:

q = 13 C

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric current, I = 20 A

The starter motor runs for 0.65 s before the car engine starts up.

We need to find how much of electric charge passes through the starter motor. Let it is q.

Electric current = electric charge/time

I=\dfrac{q}{t}\\\\q=It\\\\q=20\ A\times 0.65\ s\\\\q=13\ C

So, 13 C of electric charge passes through the starter motor.

1.33 m^3 of fluid flows out of a pipe in 24.5 s. the fluid leaves the pipe at 3.55 m/s. what is the area of the pipe. (unit=m^2)
Margaret [11]

Answer:

0.015meter^{2}

Explanation:

Total volume of water coming out = 1.33meter^{3}

Also volume = Cross sectional area*Length covered

Length covered = Velocity *time

                           =24.5*3.55

                           =86.97 meter

Let the cross sectional area be A.

1.33 = 86.97*A

A =0.015meter^{2}

Two 3.0 μC charges lie on the x-axis, one at the origin and the other at What is the potential (relative to infinity) due to the
miskamm [114]

Complete Question:

Two 3.0µC charges lie on the x-axis, one at the origin and the other at 2.0m. A third point is located at 6.0m. What is the potential at this third point relative to infinity? (The value of k is 9.0*10^9 N.m^2/C^2)

Answer:

The potential due to these charges is 11250 V

Explanation:

Potential V is given as;

V =\frac{Kq}{r}

where;

K is coulomb's constant = 9x10⁹ N.m²/C²

r is the distance of the charge

q is the magnitude of the charge

The first charge located at the origin, is 6.0 m from the third charge; the potential at this point is:

V =\frac{9X10^9 X3X10^{-6}}{6} =4500 V

The second charge located at 2.0 m, is 4.0 m from the third charge; the potential at this point is:

V =\frac{9X10^9 X3X10^{-6}}{4} =6750 V

Total potential due to this charges  = 4500 V + 6750 V = 11250 V
