Why is centrifugal force is a fake force?​

Physics
1 answer:
mash [69]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

We say fictitious because the actual source of the centrifugal acceleration is somewhat indirect and the experience one has results from the unbalanced forces acting on the reference frame, not a force. Note, it is an acceleration not a force. For instance, imagine yourself on a swing.

The center of a moon of mass m is a distance D from the center of a planet of mass M. At some distance x from the center of the
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

x = D (M/M-m) 2.41

Explanation:

a) Let's apply Newton's second law to find the summation of force, where each force is given by the law of universal gravitation

        F = g m₁m₂ / r²

        Σ F = 0

       F1- F2 = 0

       F1 = F2

We set the reference system in the body of greatest mass (M) the planet

       F1 = g m₁ M / x²

       F2 = G m1 m / (D-x)²

      G m₁ M / x² = G m₁ m / (D-x)²

      M (D-x)² = m x²

      MD² -2MD x + M x² = m x²

     x² (M-m) -2MD x + MD² = 0

We solve the second degree equation

     x = [2MD  ±√ (4M²D² - 4 (M-m) MD²)] / 2 (M-m)

     x = {2MD ± 2D √ (M² + (M-m) M)} / 2 (M-m)

     x = D {M  ±  Ra (2M²-mM)} / (M-m)

    x = D (M ± M √ (2-m/M)) / (M-m)

    x = D (M / (M-m)) (1 ±√ (2-m/M)

Let's analyze this result, the value of M-m >> 1, so if we take the negative root, the value of x would be negative, it is out of the point between the two bodies, so the correct result must be taken with the positive root

 

    x = D (M / (M-m)) (1 + √2)

     x = D (M/M-m) 2.41

b) X = 2/3 D

     x = D (M/M-m) 2.41

     2/3 D = D (M/(M-m)) 2.41

     2/3 (M-m) = M 2.41

     2/3 M - 2/3 m = 2.41 M

     1.743 M = 0.667 m

     M/m = 0.667/1.743

     M/m =  0.38

A steam power plant with a power output of 200 MW consumes coal at a rate of 700 tons/h. If the heating value of the coal is 40,
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

η = 2.57%

Explanation:

Given:

Output power of the steam power plant, P(out) = 200 MW

Consumption of coal, m = 700 tons/h = (700 × 10³)/3600 kg/s= 194.44 kg/s

Heating capacity of the coal, Cv = 40000 kJ/kg

now,

Input power,  P(in) = mCv

or

P(in) =  194.44 kg/s × 40000 = 7777.77 MW

thus,

efficiency, η = P(out)/P(in) = (200 MW) / (7777.77 MW) = 0.02571

or

η = 2.57%

An object weighs 25 N. how much power is used to lift it 7.3 m in 4.8 s?
V125BC [204]

Answer:

P=38.0W

Explanation:

First find work done using

Ew=Fd

Ew=25×7.3

=182.5J

Then find power using

P=E/t

P=182.5/4.8

P=38.0W
