Answer:

Part 1: As the centripetal force acts upon an object moving in a circle at constant speed, the force always acts inward as the velocity of the object is directed tangent to the circle. This would mean that the force is always directed perpendicular to the direction that the object is being displaced.

Part 2: So a = F / m or acceleration = Force / mass. You then just input your values, so 24 / 8. 24 / 8 = 3.

(a) How fast must a 3000-kg elephant move to have the same kinetic energy as a 65.0-kg sprinter running at 10.0 m/ s?

Answer:

1.4719 m per sec

Explanation:

Hello

Kinetic energy is the energy associated with the movement of objects. Although there are many forms of kinetic energy

the formula to use is

$E=\frac{mv^{2} }{2}$

where m is the mass of the object and v the velocity

lets see the kinetic energy of the sprinter running

$E=\frac{65 Kg*10(\frac{m}{s} ^)){2} }{2} \\\\E=\frac{65 *100 }{2} \\E=3250 Joules\\\\$

Now, the elephant must have the same kinetic energy

$E=\frac{m*v_{2} ^{2} }{2} \\\\E*2=m*v_{2} ^{2}\\ \frac{2E}{m} =v_{2} ^{2} \\\sqrt{\frac{2E}{m} } =v_{2} \\\\\\v_{2} =\sqrt{\frac{2*3250}{3000} }\\ \\v_{2} =1.4719 \frac{m}{s} \\\\$
