Answer:

3.08m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Radius = 20m

Tangential velocity  = 7.85m/s

Unknown:

Centripetal acceleration  = ?

Solution:

Centripetal acceleration is the acceleration of a body along a circular path.

 it is mathematically given as;

       a  = \frac{v^{2} }{r}  

v is the tangential velocity

r is the radius

      a  = \frac{7.85^{2} }{20}   = 3.08m/s²

_______________ describes how much energy is required to raise an object's temperature. convection radiation conduction specific
Gelneren [198K]
Hello,

The answer should be option D "specific heat".

Reason:

Specific heat is what tells the person how my heat and or pressure is required to raised the objects temperature. Its not option A convection because I'm convection is mainly used as like the ozone layer and the suns rays. Its not option B radiation because radiation doesn't tell the person what temperature it needs in order for it to rise its more like its already rises and hot. Its also not option C because conduction is the process of a object heating another object therefore the answer is option D.

If you need anymore help feel free to ask me!

Hope this helps!

Does change in direction affect the acceleration of a car?
stellarik [79]

Answer:

A change in velocity is either a change in an object's speed or its direction. When a moving object changes direction, its velocity changes and it is accelerating.
