A car is moving in uniform circular motion. If the cars speed were to double to keep the car moving with the same radius the acc

Stells [14]

Answer:

The centripetal acceleration would increase by a factor of 4

Correct choice: B.

Explanation:

Circular Motion

The circular motion is described when an object rotates about a fixed point called center. The distance from the object to the center is the radius. There are other magnitudes in the circular motion like the angular speed, tangent speed, and centripetal acceleration. The formulas are:

$v_t=w\ r$

$\displaystyle a_c=\frac{v_t^2}{r}$

If the speed is doubled and the radius is the same, then

$\displaystyle a_c=\frac{(2v_t)^2}{r}$

$\displaystyle a_c=4\frac{v_t^2}{r}$

The centripetal acceleration would increase by a factor of 4

Correct choice: B.

Assume that the electric field E is equal to zero at a given point. Does it mean that the electric potential V must also be equa

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

No, this doesn't mean the electric potential equals zero.

Explanation:

In electrostatics, the electric field $\vec{E}$ is related to the gradient of the electric potential V with :

$\vec{E} (\vec{r}) = - \vec{\nabla} V (\vec{r})$

This means that for constant electric potential the electric field must be zero:

$V(\vec{r}) = k$

$\vec{E} (\vec{r}) = - \vec{\nabla} V (\vec{r}) = - \vec{\nabla} k$

$\vec{E} (\vec{r}) = - (\frac{\partial}{\partial x} , \frac{\partial}{\partial y } , \frac{\partial}{\partial z}) k$

$\vec{E} (\vec{r}) = - (\frac{\partial k}{\partial x} , \frac{\partial k}{\partial y } , \frac{\partial k}{\partial z})$

$\vec{E} (\vec{r}) = - (0,0,0)$

This is not the only case in which we would find an zero electric field, as, any scalar field with gradient zero will give an zero electric field. For example:

$V(\vec{r})= (x+2)^2 (y+4)^3 (z+5)^4$

give an electric field of zero at point (0,0,0)

Which best explains how the diffraction pattern observed in young’s experiment supports the wave theory of light?.

KIM [24]

Answer: the airy pattern can only arise from wave propagation

Explanation:if particles went in straight lines through a slit, they would progate linearly and not interfere. The airy pattern arises from diffraction as waves interfere, producing peaks (constructive interference where peaks of waves from each slit coincide) and troughs (destructive interference where peaks and troughs of waves from each slit cancel out). If intensity rather than field is measured nodes occur where 0 values line up instead of troughs
