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)

Sneaky question.

The secondary voltage will be zero.

Secondary voltage is the result of CHANGES in the primary voltage. That means the primary is energized with AC. The transformer in this question is energized with DC, which doesn't change. So there is no secondary voltage, this transformer doesn't work, and what you get out of it is: Smoke !

Alla [95]

Answer:

3, 5, 1, 4, 2

Explanation:

When the body needs to move, certain muscles need to be stimulated in order to perform a certain movement. There is a process that is followed that starts with the brain sending a signal, and ends with the movement being performed by the body.

3. This is the first step, because a pathway needs to be established before any electric impulses can be sent. Hence, the upper motor neurons in the premotor cortex <u>need to choose a pathway</u> (known as a motor program).

5. This is the second step, because once a pathway has been established, a <u>signal needs to be sent</u> down that pathway. Hence, the basal nuclei enable the thalamus to stimulate the upper motor neurons to send an electrical impulse down the pathway.

1. This is the third step, because once the upper motor neurons have been stimulated, they send an electrical impulse to stimulate the lower motor neurons.

4. This is the forth step, because once the electrical impulse reaches the lower motor neurons, they pass the impulse to a certain group of skeletal muscles, causing them to contract.

2. This is the final step, because once the skeletal muscles have contracted, the <u>body has completed its movement</u>. However, once the body has moved, sensory information is relayed to the cerebellum to <u>ensure that the correct movement is made</u>, and if it needs to be adjusted, then the whole process will start again in order to correct the movement.
