Answer:

East

Explanation:

In circular motion, the velocity of the object will always be tangential to the radius of the circle. In this case, since the car is at the northernmost point of the circular track, then it must be moving right or towards the east, no matter what the acceleration might be at that very moment or what the radius of the track is. If it's moving clockwise, then it moves right (towards the east).

To lift a load of 100 kg a distance of 1 m an effort of 25 kg must be applied over an inclined plane of length 4 m. What must be
Troyanec [42]
Using conservation of energy law:-
∑ work in = ∑ work out
and work= force* displacement 
so when we wanted to move a 100kg a distance of 1m 
we multiplied 100*1 = work out
so work in should be equal to 100*g Joules, where g is the acceleration due to gravity.
so workout = 100*g = 25*g *x (divide both sides by 25*g)
x=4m 

by the same way:-
------------------------
work in = 100kg * 2m * g (m/s^2)= work out
so work out = 25*x*g = 200* g (divide both sides by 25*g)
x=8m

The position of a 50 g oscillating mass is given by x(t)=(2.0cm)cos(10t−π/4), where t is in s. If necessary, round your answers
Leona [35]
For the answer to the question above, this is the maximum displacement, the spring has only elastic potential energy.
spring is constant @ 5 N/m
maximum displacement = 2 cm = 0.02 m
elastic potential energy = 1/2 kx²
= 0.5 x 5 x 0.02²
So the answer would be
= 0.001 Joules
