You start by writing down your parameters;
u=60m/s
v=0
t=8s
So acceleration(a)=v-u/t
=0-60/8
=-60/8
=-7.5m/s
To the nearest hundredth will be
-7.5*100
=-750m/s

( Image is 6 C carbon with the numbers 12.011 under it ) According to the image, the atomic mass of carbon is 12.011. How is the
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

B. By adding the number of protons and the number of neutrons

Explanation:

The atomic mass is determined by adding the number of protons and neutrons in an atom. An atom is made up of three fundamental particles: Electrons, Protons and Neutrons.

The protons and neutrons occupy a central region in an atom known as the nucleus. The nucleus is positively charged and mass concentrated.

If we compare the relative masses of the subatomic particles, the masses of protons and neutrons would be 1 and that of an electron would be 1/1840. This shows that the mass of electrons are negligible.

In order to ascertain atomic mass, we therefore add the number of protons and neutrons together. This is how we arrive at 12.011 as the value of the atomic mass of C and for other elements.

The atomic mass is also known as the mass number.

Two identical satellites are in orbit about the earth. One orbit has a radius r and the other 2r. The centripetal force on the s
velikii [3]

Answer:

the centripetal force on the satellite in the larger orbit is _one fourth_ as that on the satellite in the smaller orbit.

Explanation:

Mass of satellite, m

orbit radius of first, r1 = r

orbit radius of second, r2  = 2r

Centripetal force is given by

F= \frac{mv^{2}}{r}

Where v be the orbital velocity, which is given by

v=\sqrt{gr}

So, the centripetal force is given by

F= \frac{mgr}}{r}}=mg

where, g bet the acceleration due to gravity

g=\frac{GM}{r^{2}}

So, the centripetal force

F= \frac{GMm}}{r^{2}}}

Gravitational force on the satellite having larger orbit

F= \frac{GMm}{4r^{2}} .... (1)

Gravitational force on the satellite having smaller orbit

F'= \frac{GMm}{r^{2}} .... (2)

Comparing (1) and (2),

F' = 4 F

So, the centripetal force on the satellite in the larger orbit is _one fourth_ as that on the satellite in the smaller orbit.

Starting from rest, a disk rotates about its central axis with constant angular acceleration. In 5.00 s, it rotates 13.9 rad. Du
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

(a) Angular acceleration is 1.112 rad/s².

(b) Average angular velocity is 2.78 rad/s .

Explanation:

The equation of motion in Rotational kinematics is:

θ = θ₀ + 0.5αt²

Here θ is angular displacement at time t, θ₀ is angular displacement at time t=0, t is time and α is constant angular acceleration.

(a) According to the problem, θ is 13.9 rad, θ₀ is zero as it is at rest and t is 5 s. Put these values in the above equation:

13.9 = 0 + 0.5α(5)²

α = 1.112 rad/s²

(b) The equation of average angular velocity is:

ω = Δθ/Δt

ω = \frac{13.9}{5}

ω = 2.78 rad/s
