If the maximum acceleration that is tolerable for passengers in a subway train is 1.21 m/s2 and subway stations are located 810

Answer:

v = 44.27 m / s

Explanation:

This is an exercise in kinematics since they ask the maximum speed of the train

           v² = v₀² + 2 a x

a train departs with zero initial velocity

           v² = 2 a x

           v = √ 2ax

calculate

           v = √ (2 1.21 810)

            v = 44.27 m / s

in this solution we have assumed that the train uses the entire distance with acceleration

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

a. The station is rotating at 1.496 \frac{rev}{min}

b. the rotation needed is 2.8502 \frac{rev}{min}

Explanation:

We know that the centripetal acceleration is

a_{c}= \omega ^2 r

where \omega is the rotational speed and r is the radius. As the centripetal acceleration is feel like an centrifugal acceleration in the rotating frame of reference (be careful, as the rotating frame of reference is <u>NOT INERTIAL,</u> the centrifugal force is a fictitious force, the real force is the centripetal).

<h3>a. </h3>

The rotational speed  is :

2.7 \frac{m}{s^2} = \omega ^2 * 110  \ m

\omega ^2 = \frac{2.7 \frac{m}{s^2}} {110 \ m}

\omega  = \sqrt{ 0.02454 \frac{rad^2}{s^2} }

\omega  = 0.1567 \frac{rad}{s}

Knowing that there are 2\pi \ rad in a revolution and 60 seconds in a minute.

\omega  = 0.1567 \frac{rad}{s}  \frac{1 \ rev}{2\pi \ rad} \frac{60 \ s}{1 \ min}

\omega  = 1.496 \frac{rev}{min}

<h3>b. </h3>

The rotational speed needed is :

9.8 \frac{m}{s^2} = \omega ^2 * 110  \ m

\omega ^2 = \frac{9.8 \frac{m}{s^2}} {110 \ m}

\omega  = \sqrt{ 0.08909 \frac{rad^2}{s^2} }

\omega  = 0.2985 \frac{rad}{s}

Knowing that there are 2\pi \ rad in a revolution and 60 seconds in a minute.

\omega  = 0.2985 \frac{rev}{min}  \frac{1 \ rev}{2\pi \ rad} \frac{60 \ s}{1 \ min}

\omega  = 2.8502 \frac{rev}{min}

Which of the following is a false statement about dispersion forces? View Available Hint(s) Which of the following is a false st
icang [17]

Explanation :

Dispersion forces are also known as London dispersion forces. It is the weakest force. Also, it is the part of the Van der Waals forces.

(1) This force is exhibited by all atoms and molecules.

(2) These forces are the result of the fluctuations in the electron distribution within molecules or atoms. Due to these fluctuations, the electric field is created. The magnitude of this force is explained in terms of Hamaker constant 'A'.

(3) Dispersion forces result from the formation of instantaneous dipoles in a molecule or atom. When electrons are more concentrated in a place, instantaneous dipoles formed.

(4) Dispersion force magnitude depends on the amount of surface area available for interactions. If the area increases, the size of the atom also increase. As a result, stronger dispersion forces.

So, the false statement is "Dispersion forces always have a greater magnitude in molecules with a greater molar mass".
