Explain why a car driving around a curve at a constant speed is accelerating.

GREYUIT [131]3 years ago

But the fact is that an accelerating object is an object that is changing it’s velocity.. for this reason , it can be safely concluded that an object moving in a circle at constant speed is indeed accelerating. It is accelerating because the direction of the velocity vector is changing .

What is a centripetal acceleration of a point on a bicycle wheel of a radius of 0.70 m when a bike is moving 8.0 m/s
Furkat [3]

Answer:

The acceleration of a point on the wheel is 11.43 m/s² acting radially inward.

Explanation:

The centripetal acceleration acts on a body when it is performing a circular motion.

Here, a point on the bicycle is performing circular motion as the rotation of the wheel produces a circular motion.

The centripetal acceleration of a point moving with a velocity v and at a distance of r from the axis of rotation is given as:

a=\frac{v^2}{r}

Here, v=8\ m/s,r=0.70\ m

∴ a=\frac{8}{0.70}=11.43\ m/s^2

Therefore, the acceleration of a point on the wheel is 11.43 m/s² acting radially inward.

A 40 cm wire with a radius of 3 cm is oriented along the y axis and carries a current of 2 A. What is the magnitude of the magne
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

a) B = 1.99 x 10⁻⁴ Tesla

b) B = 0.88 x 10⁻⁴ Tesla

Explanation:

According to Biot - Savart Law, the magnetic field due to a currnt carrying straight wire is given as:

B = μ₀ I L/4πr²

where,

μ₀ = permebility of free space = 1.25 x 10⁻⁶ H m⁻¹

I = current = 2 A

L = Length of wire = 40 cm = 0.4 m

a)

r = radius of magnetic field = 2 cm = 0.02 m

Therefore,

B = (1.25 x 10⁻⁶ H m⁻¹)(2 A)(0.4 m)/4π(0.02 m)²

<u>B = 1.99 x 10⁻⁴ Tesla</u>

<u></u>

b)

r = radius of magnetic field = 3 cm = 0.03 m

Therefore,

B = (1.25 x 10⁻⁶ H m⁻¹)(2 A)(0.4 m)/4π(0.03 m)²

<u>B = 0.88 x 10⁻⁴ Tesla</u>

A weightlifter raises a 50kg weight to a height of 2m in 2 minutes. What was the power spent by the weightlifter?
belka [17]

Answer:

117.72kW

Explanation:

Given data

Mass m= 50kg

height x = 2m

time taken = 2 minutes= 129 seconds

let us find the work done

WD= force * distance

WD= mgx

WD= 50*9.81*2

WD= 981 Joules

Let us find the power

Power= work * time

Power= 981*120

Power= 117720

Power= 117.72 kW

Hence the power spent is 117.72kW
