Answer:

The girl's centripetal acceleration is 3.92 m/s².

Explanation:

Given that,

Tangential speed = 2.8 m/s

Diameter = 4.0 m

We need to calculate the centripetal acceleration

Using formula of centripetal acceleration

\alpha=\dfrac{v^2}{r}

Where, v = tangential speed

r = radius

Put the value into the formula

\alpha=\dfrac{2.8^2}{2.0}

\alpha=3.92\ m/s^2

Hence, The girl's centripetal acceleration is 3.92 m/s².

Formula: Ca=Vt^2/r

centripetal acceleration(Ca)= ?
tangential speed(Vt)= 2.8m/s
Radius(r)=2m

Substitute: Ca=2.8^2/2
                  Ca=3.92m/s^2

A soccer ball of mass 0.35 kg is rolling with velocity 0, 0, 1.8 m/s, when you kick it. Your kick delivers an impulse of magnitu
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

position 9.58 m

Explanation:

In impulse exercises and amount of movement, we always assume that the contact time is small,

     I = Δp

With this expression we can calculate the final speed

     I = m Vf - m Vo

    Vf = (I + mVo) / m

    Vf = (1.8 + 0.35 1.8) /0.35

    Vf = 6.94 m / s

To calculate the acceleration of the ball we use Newton's second law, after finishing the impulse

     ∑ F = m a

     fr = m a

     a = fr / m

     a = -0.26 / 0.35

     a = -0.74 m/s²

A negative sign indicates that this acceleration is slowing the ball

Now we have speed and time acceleration, so we can use the kinematic equations to find the position at 1.5 s

   

      X = Vo t + ½ to t²

 In this case Vo is the speed with which the ball comes out after the impulse 6.94

     X = 6.94 1.5 + ½ (-0.74) 1.522

     X = 9.58 m
