Answer:

W = 637 N

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use Newton's second law

         F -W = m a

where F is the force, m the mass and the acceleration

in this case the force is the weight of the body and as the elevator goes at constant speed the acceleration is zero

         F = W

         a = 0

       

          F = W

          W = m g

          W = 65 9.8

          W = 637 N

Displacement only measure how far between the starting and ending point. In this case, Lisa walks around the block as a circle so the starting point is the same as the ending point. Thus, displacement is 0mile.
On the other hand, distance measures exactly how far she walks. In this case, the distance is 1 mile, same as the perimeter of the block.

A wave has a wavelength of 125 meters is moving at a speed of 20 m/s. What is it’s frequency?
Ann [662]

Answer: 0.16Hz

Explanation:

Given that:

wavelength (λ) = 125 meters

speed (V) = 20 m/s

frequency (F) = ?

Recall that frequency is the number of cycles the wave complete in one second. And its value depends on the wavelength and speed of the wave.

So, apply the formula V = F λ

Make F the subject formula

F = V / λ

F = 20 m/s / 125 meters

F = 0.16 Hz

Thus, the frequency of the wave is 0.16 Hertz.

In uniform circular motion, how does the acceleration change when the speed is increased by a factor of 3? When the radius is de
crimeas [40]

Answer:

The acceleration will become 9/2 times.

a' =9/2 a

Explanation:

We know that acceleration of a particle when it is moving in the circular path is given as

a=\omega^2\ r

r=radius

ω= angular speed

If the speed ω '= 3 ω

If the radius ,r'=\dfrac{r}{2}

The final acceleration =a'

a'=\omega^2'\ r'

a'=(3\omega)^2\times \dfrac{r}{2}

a'=9\omega^2\times \dfrac{r}{2}

a'=\omega^2\times \dfrac{9r}{2}

a'= \dfrac{9r}{2}\times \omega^2\times r

a'=\dfrac{9}{2}a

Therefore the acceleration will become 9/2 times.
