Answer:

a' = 2a

Explanation:

The acceleration during this circular motion is the centripetal acceleration. Initially, the acceleration will be given as:

a = v²/r   --------------------- equation (1)

Where,

a = centripetal acceleration at outer edge

v = speed of merry go round = 5 m/s

r = distance from center of round to person (outer edge)

Now, when the person moves half way towards center. Then, the acceleration becomes:

a' = v²/r'

where,

r' = r/2

Therefore,

a' = v²/(r/2)

a' = 2v²/r

using equation (1):

<u>a' = 2a </u>

When you are driving on a rural road, if your right wheels run off the pavement, you should hold the steering wheel firmly and
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

C). Take your foot off the gas pedal. Then brake lightly until you are moving at low speed.                    

Explanation:

While driving on roads of rural areas, if our right wheel moves off the pavement, we should always hold the steering wheel firmly and then take our foot off the gas pedal, then apply brake lightly until we are moving at a low speed.

      When our wheels drift off the pavement area, we should not panic and yank. And instead of turning the wheel back in the left direction towards the road, it is always safer to take off our foot from the gas pedal and then apply brakes slowly. When our vehicle slows down check the incoming traffic behind us and then we should slowly move back on to the pavement.

These anisotropies in the temperature map correspond to areas of varying density fluctuations in the early universe. Eventually, gravity would draw the high-density fluctuations into even denser and more pronounced ones.

The vertical force f acts downward at A on the two membered frames. Determine the magnitude of the two components of F directed
galben [10]

Answer:

The magnitude will be "353.5 N". A further solution is given below.

Explanation:

The given values is:

F = 500 N

According to the question,

In ΔABC,

⇒ \angle BCA = (90-30)

⇒             =60^{\circ}

then,

⇒ \angle BAC=(180-45-60)

⇒             =75^{\circ}

Now,

The corresponding angle will be:

⇒ \angle FAC=60^{\circ}

⇒ \angle FAB=70+60

⇒             =135^{\circ}

Aspect of F across the AC arm will be:

= F\times cos(60)

On putting the values of F, we get

= 500\times (.5)

= 200 \ Newton

Component F along the AC (in magnitude) will be:

= F\times cos(135)

= 500\times (-.707)

= -353.5 \ N \
