Circular Motion A 650-kg car moving at 8.5 m/s takes a turn around a circle with a radius of 48.0 m. Determine the acceleration

acting upon the car. Use a = v2/ r
Physics

Answer:

Explanation:

The mass of the car doesn't matter because On a flat curve the mass of the car does not affect the speed at which it can stay on the curve. You would need the mass if you were solving the the centripetal force acting on the car, but not the acceleration.

a=\frac{v^2}{r} and filling in

a=\frac{(8.5)^2}{48.0} and we need 2 significant digits in our answer. That means that

a = 1.5 m/sec²

Scientists can use spectral analysis of stars to determine which of the following?
RoseWind [281]
I do believe all of these but core elements can be determined by spectroscopy which includes the use of electromagnetic radiation. Both the surface and core temperature can be measured using light. Surface elements can be found because the absorption lines of different elements in the spectra of the star, but I haven't heard anything about using spectral analysis for core elements.

A sound with an intensity greater than_____ dB can cause damage to human ears.
sergiy2304 [10]

85 decibels or higher can cause damage to the human ear. Decibels is the value of the measurement of sound. Hearing loss can be caused by noise coming from a loud sound. Noise induced hearing loss maybe permanent loss or temporary loss. Examples of activities that can give you a noise induced hearing loss is target shooting, listening to music in your earphones that have a high volume, and using lawnmowers.
