While at the county fair, you decide to ride the Ferris wheel. Having eaten too many candy apples and elephant ears, you find th

e motion somewhat unpleasant. To take your mind off your stomach, you wonder about the motion of the ride. You estimate the radius of the big wheel to be 12 m, and you use your watch to find that each loop around takes 26 s.What is the magnitude of your acceleration

Answer:

  a = 0.701 m / s²

Explanation:

As the game is spinning the acceleration is centripetal

           a = v² /r

The park system after a small period of acceleration goes at a constant speed, for which we can use the relations of the uniform motion

           v = d / t

the distance of a circle is

           d = 2π r

we substitute

          a = (2π r / t) ² / r

          a = 4 pi² r / t²

           

let's calculate

          a = 4 pi² 12 / 26²

          a = 0.701 m / s²

Rubbing both pieces cause each piece to have a negative charge.

When two parts have the same they repel each other, so holding one piece up tot he end of the other piece would push it away.

Because one piece is held in the middle by a string, it would rotate the piece in a circle.

If they held the piece to the other end of the one held by a string it would start to rotate in the opposite direction.

<h3>Hello There!!</h3>

<h3><u>Given</u>,</h3>

Force(F) = 150N

Mass(m) = 90kg

<h3><u>To </u><u>Find,</u></h3>

Acceleration(a) = ?

<h3><u>We know,</u></h3>

F= m×a

150 = 90 \times  \text{a} \\  \\  \text{a} =  \frac{150}{90}  \\  \fbox{cancelling by 3} \\  \\   \text{ a}  = \cancel \frac{150}{90} \\  \\ \text{ a}  =  \frac{5}{3}  = 1.67 \text{m/s} {}^{2}

\therefore  \text{Option A= 1.67 m/s² is the correct answer}

<h3>Hope this helps</h3>

An electron is released from rest in a weak electric field given by E =-2.30 x 10-10 N/Cj. After the electron has traveled a ver
Goshia [24]

Explanation:

It is given that,

An electron is released from rest in a weak electric field of, E=2.3\times 10^{-10}\ N/C

Vertical distance covered, s=1\ \mu m=10^{-6}\ m

We need to find the speed of the electron. Let its speed is v. Using third equation of motion as :

v^2-u^2=2as

v^2=2as.............(1)

Electric force is F_e and force of gravity is F_g. As both forces are acting in downward direction. So, total force is:

F=mg+qE

F=9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 9.8+1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 2.3\times 10^{-10}

F=4.57\times 10^{-29}\ N

Acceleration of the electron, a=\dfrac{F}{m}

a=\dfrac{4.57\times 10^{-29}\ N}{9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg}

a=50.21\ m/s^2

Put the value of a in equation (1) as :

v=\sqrt{2as}

v=\sqrt{2\times 50.21\times 10^{-6}}

v = 0.010 m/s

So, the speed of the electron is 0.010 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
