Two ice-skaters are skating in circles on a frozen pond. Maria is making large circles with a radius of 12 m and skating 4.5 m/s

. Her friend, Samantha, is making smaller circles with a radius of 6 m but is not skating as quickly, going only 3.8 m/s.
How could each skater increase her centripetal acceleration without changing the size of her path? Explain your reasoning.

Figure 23.9 shows a sliding mass on a spring. Assume there is no friction.
Tom [10]
<span>Without friction, there will be undamped simple harmonic motion. The force of the spring is proportional to the distance from the equilibrium point. The period of oscillation will be independent of the amplitude.

I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!</span>

Three students are discussing a situation where a bicyclist travels at a steady 18.0 m/s for 10 minutes, then at 6.0 m/s for 20
timama [110]

Answer:10.667 m/s

Explanation:

Given

For First half students travel for 18 m/s for 10 min

For second half students travel for 6 m/s for 20 min

For last half students travel for 12 m/s for 15 min

average Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}

V_{avg}=\frac{18\times 600+6\times 1200+12\times 900}{600+1200+900}

V_{avg}=\frac{28800}{2700}=10.667

Average velocity is different than average speed because calculating average velocity involves what?
Dominik [7]
Two things that aren't involved in speed: -- the straight-line distance between the start- and end- points. -- the direction from start-point to end-point.
