Answer:

We conclude that the centripetal force needed to keep a 7kg mass moving in a circle of 4 meters radius at 15m/s is 393.75 N.

Explanation:

Given

Mass m = 7 kg

Radius r = 4 m

Velocity v = 15m/s

To determine

We need to determine the centripetal force needed to keep a 7kg mass moving in a circle of 4 meters radius at 15m/s.

We know a centripetal force acts on a body to keep it moving along a curved path.

We can determine the centripetal force using the formula

$F_c=\frac{mv^2}{r}$

where

$m$ is the mass

$v$ is the velocity

$r$ is the radius

$F_c$ is the centripetal force

substitute m = 7, r = 4, and v = 15 in the formula

$F_c=\frac{mv^2}{r}$

$F_c=\frac{7\left(15\right)^2}{4}$

$F_c=\frac{1575}{4}$

$F_c=393.75$ N

Therefore, we conclude that the centripetal force needed to keep a 7kg mass moving in a circle of 4 meters radius at 15m/s is 393.75 N.

SOH-CAH-TOA is used to solve for the ________

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

c. initial (x and y)

Explanation:

When a projectile is launched at a velocity with a launch angle, to solve it, we must first resolve the initial velocity into the x and y components. To do this will mean we have to treat it like a triangle due to the launch angle and the direction of the projectile.

Therefore, we will have to make use of trigonometric ratios which is also known by the mnemonic "SOH CAH TOA"

Thus, this method resolves the initial x and y velocities.

If two particles have equal kinetic energies, are their momenta necessarily equal? explain.

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

No the given statement is not necessarily true.

Explanation:

We know that the kinetic energy of a particle of mass 'm' moving with velocity 'v' is given by

$K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}$

Similarly the momentum is given by $m\times v$

For 2 particles with masses $m_{1},m_{2}$ and moving with velocities $v_{1},v_{2}$ respectively the respective kinetic energies is given by

$K.E_{1}=\frac{1}{2}m_{1}v_{1}^{2}$

$K.E_{2}=\frac{1}{2}m_{2}v_{2}^{2}$

Similarly For 2 particles with masses $m_{1},m_{2}$ and moving with velocities $v_{1},v_{2}$ respectively the respective momenta are given by

$p_{1}=m_{1}\times v_{1}$

$p_{2}=m_{2}\times v_{2}$

Now since it is given that the two kinetic energies are equal thus we have

$\frac{1}{2}m_{1}v_{1}^{2}=\frac{1}{2}m_{2}v_{2}^{2}\\\\(m_{1}v_{1})\times v_{1}=(m_{2}v_{2})\times v_{2}\\\\p_{1}\times v_{1}=p_{2}\times v_{2}\\\\\therefore \frac{p_{1}}{p_{2}}=\frac{v_{2}}{v_{1}}............(i)$

Thus we infer that the moumenta are not equal since the ratio on right of 'i' is not 1 , and can be 1 only if the velocities of the 2 particles are equal which becomes a special case and not a general case.
