An apple is whirled round in a horizontal circle on the end of a string which is tied to the stalk. It is whirled faster and fas
jek_recluse [69]

when the apple moves in a horizontal circle, the tension force in the string provides the necessary centripetal force to move in circle. the tension in the string is given as

T=mv²/r

where T = tension force in the string , m = mass of the apple

v = speed of apple , r = radius of circle.

clearly , tension force depends on the square of the speed. hence greater the speed, greater will be the tension force.

at some point , the speed becomes large enough that it makes the tension force in the string becomes greater than the tensile strength of the string. at that point , the string breaks

how would the velocity of the book change if the applied force were equal to the sliding friction force
Inessa [10]
Yes, Sliding friction opposes the movement of the book, slowing it down.sliding That's the 'kinetic' kind.. According to Newton's second law, F=ma. That is, the bear's acceleration should be proportional to the total force acting on the bear. As the bear's velocity is constant, its acceleration is zero. Therefore, the total Force acting on the bear is zero. Thus, the friction has to be equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the bear's weight. As W=mg, we get that its weight is  <span>9.8*400=3,920 Newton. Thus, the friction acting on the bear is 3,920 Newton</span>

Cual sera el caudal que lleva un rio cuando se desplaza a 200 litros cada 40 segundos
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Q = 5 L/s

Explanation:

To find the flow you use the following formula (para calcular el caudal usted utiliza la siguiente formula):

Q=\frac{V}{t}

V: Volume (volumen) = 200L

t: time (tiempo) = 40 s

you replace the values of the parameters to calculate Q (usted reemplaza los valores de los parámteros V y t para calcular el caudal):

Q=\frac{200L}{40s}=5\frac{L}{s}

Hence, the flow is 5 L/s (por lo tanto, el caudal es de 5L/s)
