Explanation:
The object is moving along the parabola y = x² and is at the point (√2, 2). Because the object is changing directions, it has a centripetal acceleration towards the center of the circle of curvature.
First, we need to find the radius of curvature. This is given by the equation:
R = [1 + (y')²]^(³/₂) / |y"|
y' = 2x and y" = 2:
R = [1 + (2x)²]^(³/₂) / |2|
R = (1 + 4x²)^(³/₂) / 2
At x = √2:
R = (1 + 4(√2)²)^(³/₂) / 2
R = (9)^(³/₂) / 2
R = 27 / 2
R = 13.5
So the centripetal force is:
F = m v² / r
F = m (5)² / 13.5
F = 1.85 m
Do you see that blank, open space after the word "potential ..." ?
There's supposed to be a number there that actually tells us the value of the potential. Without that number ... and a lot more description of the whole scenario here ... there's no possible answer to the question.
Answer:
a = -4/5 m/s^2
Explanation:
Acceleration = change in velocity / time
change in velocity = final velocity - initial velocity
a = (20 m/s - 60 m/s) / 50 s
a = -40 m/s / 50 s
a = -4/5 m/s^2
