A 3 Kg ball at the end of a string is spun in a circle. If the length of the string is 2 m and the velocity of the ball is 6 m/s

, what is the centripetal acceleration of the ball? What is the centripetal force on the ball?

M is 3kg
r is 2m
v is 6m/s

Fc = mv^2 / r
Fc = (3x6^2)/2 =54

a = v^2/r
a = 6^2 /2 = 18

Describe how freezing could be used to remove sugar from a mixture of sugar and water?

VARVARA [1.3K]

When the mixture (the sugar and water) is frozen, it separates. The water molecules get closer together, separating and pushing the sugar crystals to the top.<span />

Two particles, one with charge -5.45 × 10^-6 C and one with charge 4.39 × 10^-6 C, are 0.0209 meters apart. What is the magnitud

Levart [38]

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge 1, $q_1=-5.45\times 10^{-6}\ C$

Charge 2, $q_2=4.39\times 10^{-6}\ C$

Distance between charges, r = 0.0209 m

1. The electric force is given by :

$F=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{r^2}$

$F=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{-5.45\times 10^{-6}\times 4.39\times 10^{-6}}{(0.0209)^2}$

F = -492.95 N

2. Distance between two identical charges, $r=0.0209\ m$

Electric force is given by :

$F=\dfrac{kq_3^2}{r^2}$

$q_3=\sqrt{\dfrac{Fr^2}{k}}$

$q_3=\sqrt{\dfrac{492.95\times (0.0209)^2}{9\times 10^9}}$

$q_3=4.89\times 10^{-6}\ C$

Hence, this is the required solution.

A pulley has a mechanical advantage of 1.

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

There is no mechanical advantage

Explanation:

The mechanical advantage is possible only when the force needed to lift a load is lesser than the weight of the load.

For example, is we have a mechanical advantage of 2, the force needed to lift will be 1/2 of the weight of the load, and if we have a mechanical advantage of 4, the force needed will be 1/4 of the weight of the load.

In the attached image there are clear examples of mechanical advantage with pulleys.

What is the tangential velocity of a record player which makes 11 revolutions in 20 seconds?

slava [35]

Answer:

The tangential velocity of a rotating object is:

v = r*w

where r is the radius, and w is the angular velocity.

w = 2*pi*f

where f is the frequency.

We know that the record plater does 11 revolutions in 20 seconds, then it does:

11 rev/20s = 0.55 rev/s = f

then we have:

w = 2*pi*0.55 s^-1 = 2*3.14*0.55 s^-1 = 3.454 s^-1

The radius of a record player is really variable, it is around 10 inches, so i will use r = 10in, which is the rotating part of the record player.

then the tangential velocity is:

v = 10in*3.454 s^-1 = 34.54 in/s

Can molecules with double or triple bonds twist

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

The only way a twist may be done is if the trans form of an alkene/alkyne is twisted into the cis form--only if/when the pi bond is brokwn.
