Complete Question:
a. A hawk flies in a horizontal arc of radius 11.3 m at a constant speed of 5.7 m/s. Find its centripetal acceleration.
Answer in units of m/s2
b. It continues to fly along the same horizontal arc but increases its speed at the rate of 1.34 m/s2. Find the magnitude of acceleration under
these new conditions.
Answer in units of m/s2
Answer:
a. 2.875m/s²
b. 3.172m/s²
Explanation:
a. The formula for centripetal acceleration = (speed²) ÷ radius
Centripetal acceleration = (5.7m/s)²÷ 11.3m
Centripetal acceleration = 2.875m/s²
b. Magnitude of acceleration can be calculated by finding the sum of the vectors for the both the centripetal acceleration and the increase in the speed rate.
Centripetal acceleration ( acceleration x) = 2.875m/s²
Increase in the speed rate ( acceleration n) = 1.34m/s²
Magnitude of acceleration = √a²ₓ + a²ₙ
=√( 2.875m/s²)²+ (1.34m/s²)²
= √ 10.06m/s²
= 3.172m/s²
Answer:
Rest and motion are the relative terms because they depend on the observer's frame of reference. So if two different observers are not at rest with respect to each other, then they too get different results when they observe the motion or rest of a body.
Explanation With Example:
Imagine you are sitting inside a moving bus. When you look outside you will observe that you are moving. ... With respect to the roof of bus, you are at rest. Hence it is concluded that rest and motion are relative terms.
Take the tiny bit of carbon dioxide and the tiny bit of water vapor out of the air,
and the rest of what you're breathing right now is a mixture of elements.
When it reaches it's peak, the energy is converted into potential as it slows down, then back to kinetic as it goes back to the lowest point.
