Answer:

A) r = 20.0 m

B) T = 41.6 s

C) = 6.1 m/s²

Explanation:

A)

  • The centripetal acceleration is the one that explains that even though the cyclist is moving at a constant speed, his velocity is changing the direction all the time, keeping him around a circle.
  • This acceleration can be expressed as follows:

        a_{c} =\frac{v^{2}}{r} = \frac{(10.0m/s)^{2}}{r} = 5.00 m/s2  (1)

  • Solving for r:

       r = \frac{v^{2}}{a_{c} } = \frac{(10.0m/s)^{2}}{5.00m/s2} = 20.0 m  (2)

B)

  • We can apply the definition of linear velocity, remembering that the period is the time needed to complete an entire circle (T).
  • The arc around a circumference (the distance traveled) , is just 2*π*r, so applying the definition of linear velocity, we can write the following expression:

        v = \frac{\Delta s}{\Delta t} = \frac{2*\pi*r}{T} (3)

  • Solving  for T:

       T = \frac{\Delta s}{v} = \frac{2*\pi*r}{v} = \frac{2*\pi*265m}{40.0m/s} =41.6 s  (4)

C)

  • The centripetal acceleration of the car from B) can be found as follows:

        a_{c} =\frac{v^{2}}{r} = \frac{(40.0m/s)^{2}}{265m} = 6.1 m/s2   (5)

Sloan [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Time to cover first 100 km = 1 hour.

time remaining = 3.15 - 1 = 2.15 hour .

Time to cover next 42 km = 1 hour .

Time remaining = 2.15-1 = 1.15 hour.

Distance to be covered = 310 - 142

= 168 km

least speed needed = distance remaining / time remaining

= 168 / 1.15

= 146.08 km / h .

A device consisting of four heavy balls connected by low-mass rods is free to rotate about an axle. It is initially not spinning
zubka84 [21]

The angular speed of the device is 1.03 rad/s.

<h3>What is the conservation of angular momentum?</h3>

A spinning system's ability to conserve angular momentum ensures that its spin will not change until it is subjected to an external torque; to put it another way, the rotation's speed will not change as long as the net torque is zero.

Using the conservation of angular momentum

L_{i}=L_{f}

Here,  = the system's angular momentum before the collision

L_{i} = 0 + mv

= (0.005)(450)(0.752)

= 1.692 kgm²/s

The moment of inertia of the system is given by

I = 2(M₁R₁² + M₂R₂²)+ mR₁²

= 2[(1.2)(0.8)² +(0.5)(0.3)²]+0.005(0.8)²

= 1.6292 kgm²

Here,  = Iω

So,

1.692 = 1.6292(ω)

ω = 1.03 rad/s

An air-filled pipe is found to have successive harmonics at 945 Hz , 1215 Hz , and 1485 Hz . It is unknown whether harmonics bel
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

L = 0.635m

Explanation:

This problem involves the concept of stationary waves in pipes. For pipes closed at one end,

The frequency f = nv/4L for n = 1,3,5....n

For pipes open at both ends

f = nv/2L for n = 1,2,3,4...n

Assuming the pipe is closed at one end and that velocity of sound is 343m/s in air. If we are right we will obtain a whole number for n.

The film solution can be found in the attachment below.

If we increase the force applied to an object, and all other factors remain the same, the amount of work will
soldier1979 [14.2K]
The question doesn't give us enough information to answer.
The answer depends on the mass of the object, how long the force
acts on the object, the OTHER forces on the object, and whether the
object is free to move.

-- If you increase the force with which you push on a brick wall,
the amount of work done remains unchanged, namely Zero.

-- If you push on a pingpong ball with a force of 1 ounce for 1 second,
the ball accelerates substantially, it moves a substantial distance, and
so the work done is substantial.

-- But if you push on a battleship, even with a much bigger force ...
let's say 1 pound ... and keep pushing for a month ... the ship accelerates
microscopically, moves a microscopic distance, and the work done by
your force is microscopic.
