Answer:

F = 2985.125 N

Explanation:

Given that,

The radius of curvature of the roller coaster, r = 8 m

Speed of Micheal, v = 17 m/s

Mass of body, m = 65 kg We need to find the net force acting on Micheal. Net force act the bottom of the circle is given by :

$F=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}+mg\\\\F=m(\dfrac{v^2}{r}+g)\\\\=65(\dfrac{17^2}{8}+9.8)\\\\=2985.125\ N$

So, the net force is 2985.125 N.

A circular dartboard has a radius of 2 meters and a red circle in the center. Assume you hit the target at a random point. For w

Sati [7]

Answer:

1.549 m

Explanation:

Given:

The radius of the circular board, r = 2 m

The probability of hitting the red is given as 0.6

Now, this probability of hitting the red can be conclude as

0.6 = (Area of red)/ (Total area of the board)

Total area of the board = πr² = π × 2²

let the radius of the red area be R

thus, area of red circle, = πR²

on substituting the value of the area, we have

0.6 = (πR²)/ (π × 2²)

R² = 2.4

R = 1.549 m

Thus, the radius of the red circle is 1.549 m

A woman rides a carnival Ferris wheel at radius 20 m, completing 6.0 turns about its horizontal axis every minute. What are (a)

natta225 [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

radius of ferris wheel is 20 m

It completes 6 turns in 1 min

i.e. 1 turn in 10 sec

Therefore its angular velocity is $\omega =\frac{2\pi }{10} rad/s$

(a)Period of motion is 10 s

Magnitude of centripetal acceleration is $\omega ^2r$

$=\left ( \frac{\pi }{5}\right )^2\times 20=7.89 m/s^2$

(b)Highest point will be 40 m

What is the distance from axis about which a uniform, balsa-wood sphere will have the same moment of inertia as does a thin-wall

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

$D_{s}$ ≈ 2.1 R

Explanation:

The moment of inertia of the bodies can be calculated by the equation

I = ∫ r² dm

For bodies with symmetry this tabulated, the moment of inertia of the center of mass

Sphere $Is_{cm}$ = 2/5 M R²

Spherical shell $Ic_{cm}$ = 2/3 M R²

The parallel axes theorem allows us to calculate the moment of inertia with respect to different axes, without knowing the moment of inertia of the center of mass

I = $I_{cm}$ + M D²

Where M is the mass of the body and D is the distance from the center of mass to the axis of rotation

Let's start with the spherical shell, axis is along a diameter

D = 2R

Ic = $Ic_{cm}$ + M D²

Ic = 2/3 MR² + M (2R)²

Ic = M R² (2/3 + 4)

Ic = 14/3 M R²

The sphere

Is = $Is_{cm}$ + M [ $D_{s}$ ²

Is = Ic

2/5 MR² + M $D_{s}$ ² = 14/3 MR²

$D_{s}$ ² = R² (14/3 - 2/5)

$D_{s}$ = √ (R² (64/15)

$D_{s}$ = 2,066 R

At which point in the life cycle of a star does nuclear fusion begin?

Norma-Jean [14]

I would say B : main sequence is the answer . this is the answer i believe because the star will increase in size and than shine brightly and when it's done , it will get smaller turning into nebula , eventually exploding sometime around the last stage , but not the last stage of b , c, or d

i really hope that this helps you a lot.
