Answer:

a)   w = 31.4 rad / s,  b)  a = 118.4 m / s²

Explanation:

a) let's reduce to the SI system

   w = 5 rev / s (2pi rad / 1 rev)

   w = 31.4 rad / s

b) the expression for the centripetal acceleration is

      a = v² / r

linear and angular variables are related

      v = w r

    we substitute

     a = w² r

     a = 31.4² 0.120

     a = 118.4 m / s²

A busy chipmunk runs back and forth along a straight line of acorns that has been set out between his burrow and a nearby tree.
saveliy_v [14]

Answer: a = 1.32m/s2

Therefore, the average acceleration is 1.32m/s2

Explanation:

Acceleration is the rate of change in the velocity per time

a = change in velocity/time

a = ∆v/t

average acceleration a = (v2 -v1)/t. ....1

Given;

Final velocity v2 = 1.63m/s

Initial velocity v1 = -1.15ms

time taken t = 2.11s

Substituting into eqn 1

a = [1.63 - (-1.15)]/2.11

a = (1.63+1.15)/2.11

a = 2.78/2.11

a = 1.32m/s2

Therefore, the average acceleration is 1.32m/s2

You weigh 716 newtons on Earth. You
Otrada [13]

Answer:

537 N

Explanation:

The force due to gravity of a planet is:

F = GMm / r²

where G is the universal gravitational constant

M is the mass of the planet

m is the mass of the object

and r is the distance between the object and the center of the planet

On Earth, you weigh 716 N, so:

716 N = GMm / r²

On planet X:

F = G (3M) m / (2r)²

F = 3/4 GMm / r²

F = 3/4 (716 N)

F = 537 N

In an electron cloud, an electron farther east away from the nucleus has?
vladimir2022 [97]

An electron that is far away from the nucleus have higher energy than an electron near the nucleus. Nucleus are positively charged and those electrons near it get attracted; those electrons gain kinetic energy hence reducing their internal energy. The electrons far from nucleus have low kinetic energy hence more internal energy.

The singing of an opera singer caused a drinking glass to shatter. Explain this using what you know about resonance.
rusak2 [61]

Explanation:

Resonance: Resonance is the phenomenon which occurs when the applied frequency on the object is equal to its natural frequency.

In the given problem, the singing of an opera singer caused a drinking glass to shatter.

This occurs due to the phenomenon resonance. The applied frequency of the singing of an opera singer on the drinking glass matches with the natural frequency of the drinking glass. It causes a glass to shatter.
