Answer:

the action of measuring something.

Measurement is a comparison of an unknown quantity with a known fixed quantity of the same kind. The value obtained on measuring a quantity is called its magnitude. Magnitude of a quantity is expressed as numbers in its units.

How many revolutions per minute would a 23 m -diameter Ferris wheel need to make for the passengers to feel "weightless" at the
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

Approximately 6.2\; {\rm rpm}, assuming that the gravitational field strength is g = 9.81\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-2}}.

Explanation:

Let \omega denote the required angular velocity of this Ferris wheel. Let m denote the mass of a particular passenger on this Ferris wheel.

At the topmost point of the Ferris wheel, there would be at most two forces acting on this passenger:

  • Weight of the passenger (downwards), m\, g, and possibly
  • Normal force F_\text{normal} that the Ferris wheel exerts on this passenger (upwards.)

This passenger would feel "weightless" if the normal force on them is 0- that is, F_\text{normal} = 0.

The net force on this passenger is (m\, g - F_\text{normal}). Hence, when F_\text{normal} = 0, the net force on this passenger would be equal to m\, g.

Passengers on this Ferris wheel are in a centripetal motion of angular velocity \omega around a circle of radius r. Thus, the centripetal acceleration of these passengers would be a = \omega^{2}\, r. The net force on a passenger of mass m would be m\, a = m\, \omega^{2}\, r.

Notice that m\, \omega^{2} \, r = (\text{Net Force}) = m\, g. Solve this equation for \omega, the angular speed of this Ferris wheel. Since g = 9.81\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-2}} and r = 23\; {\rm m}:

\begin{aligned} \omega^{2} = \frac{g}{r}\end{aligned}.

\begin{aligned} \omega &= \sqrt{\frac{g}{r}} \\ &= \sqrt{\frac{9.81\; {\rm m \cdot s^{-2}}}{23\; {\rm m}}} \\ &\approx 0.653\; {\rm rad \cdot s^{-1}} \end{aligned}.

The question is asking for the angular velocity of this Ferris wheel in the unit {\rm rpm}, where 1\; {\rm rpm} = (2\, \pi\; {\rm rad}) / (60\; {\rm s}). Apply unit conversion:

\begin{aligned} \omega &\approx 0.653\; {\rm rad \cdot s^{-1}} \\ &= 0.653\; {\rm rad \cdot s^{-1}} \times \frac{1\; {\rm rpm}}{(2\, \pi\; {\rm rad}) / (60\; {\rm s})} \\ &= 0.653\; {\rm rad \cdot s^{-1} \times \frac{60\; {\rm s}}{2\, \pi\; {\rm rad}} \times 1\; {\rm rpm} \\ &\approx 6.2\; {\rm rpm} \end{aligned}.

The force on the truck is F=13650  N

<u>Explanation:</u>

Solving the problem

Given data,

M= 1500 kg

A= 9.1 m/s

We have the formula,

F= M×A

F= 1500 × 9.1

F=13650  N

The Force on the truck is F=13650  N

The magnitude of the acceleration of gravity, in the International System of Measurements, in an object that falls vertically is
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

option D

Explanation:

the correct answer is option D

acceleration of a body under free fall due to the effect of gravity is the called acceleration due to gravity.

Acceleration due to gravity is a constant value.

According to the International System of Measurements the acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s² when an object falls vertically.

acceleration due to gravity is denoted by 'g'.
