The Professor's centripetal acceleration is 0.044 m/s²

Centripetal acceleration is the acceleration of an object moving in circular motion. It is usually directed towards the center of the rotation.

It is given by:

a = v²/r

where v is the velocity and r is the radius.

Given that the radius (r) = 4 m, velocity (v) = 0.419 m/s, hence:

a = v²/r = 0.419²/4 =  0.044 m/s²

The Professor's centripetal acceleration is 0.044 m/s²

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

0.5A

Explanation:

V=IR where V is 1.5V, R is 3 ohms

Hence 1. 5= I x 3

1.5/3 =I

I =0.5 A

Current is 0. 5 amperes

The gravitational force experienced by Earth due to the Moon is ________ the gravitational force experienced by the Moon due to
Vsevolod [243]

The gravitational force experienced by Earth due to the Moon is <u>equal to </u>the gravitational force experienced by the Moon due to Earth.

<u>Explanation</u>:

The force that attracts any two objects/bodies with mass towards each other is defined as gravitational force. Generally the gravitational force is attractive, as it always pulls the masses together and never pushes them apart.

The gravitational force can be calculated effectively using the following formula: F=GMmr^2  

where “G” is the gravitational constant.

Though gravity has the ability to pull the masses together, it is the weakest force in the nature.

The mass of the Earth and moon varies, but still the gravitational force felt by the Earth and Moon are alike.

an object has a velocity of 0.12 rad/s. how many revolutions will the object make after traveling for 30 seconds?
Basile [38]

Answer:

We can write   S = v * t    where S is the distance traveled in time t

S = .12 rad/sec * 30 sec = 3.6 rad     distance traveled

Also 2 * pi * N = S   since there are 2 * pi rad / revolution

So 2 * pi * N = 3.6

N = 3.6 / (2 * pi) = .573 revolutions
