Acceleration can be defined as the rate of change in the velocity of an object. Option C is correct.

<h3>What is Acceleration?</h3>

It is defined as the rate of change in velocity.

It can also be defined as the rate of change in position in a particular direction.

$a = \dfrac {v-u}t\ \ \ \ \rmor}\\\\a = \dfrac {\Delta v }t$

Where,

$a$ - acceleration

$\Delta v$ - change in velocity

$t$ - time

Therefore, acceleration can be defined as the rate of change in the velocity of an object.

A discus thrower turns with angular acceleration of 50 rad/s2, moving the discus in a circle of radius 0.80m. Find the radial an

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

The value of tangential acceleration $\alpha_{t} =$ 40 $\frac{m}{s^{2} }$

The value of radial acceleration $\alpha_{r} = 80 \frac{m}{s^{2} }$

Explanation:

Angular acceleration = 50 $\frac{rad}{s^{2} }$

Radius of the disk = 0.8 m

Angular velocity = 10 $\frac{rad}{s}$

We know that tangential acceleration is given by the formula $\alpha_{t} =$ $r \alpha$

Where r = radius of the disk

$\alpha$ = angular acceleration

⇒ $\alpha_{t} =$ 0.8 × 50

⇒ $\alpha_{t} =$ 40 $\frac{m}{s^{2} }$

This is the value of tangential acceleration.

Radial acceleration is given by

$\alpha_{r} = \frac{V^{2} }{r}$

Where V = velocity of the disk = r $\omega$

⇒ V = 0.8 × 10

⇒ V = 8 $\frac{m}{s}$

Radial acceleration

$\alpha_{r} = \frac{8^{2} }{0.8}$

$\alpha_{r} = 80 \frac{m}{s^{2} }$

This is the value of radial acceleration.

Speedy Sue, driving at 34.0 m/s, enters a one-lane tunnel. She then observes a slow-moving van 160 m ahead traveling at 5.20 m/s

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

there will be collision

Explanation:

$v_{s}$ = speed of sue = 34 m/s

$v_{v}$ = speed of van = 5.20 m/s

$v_{sv}$ = speed of sue relative to van = $v_{s} - v_{v}$ = 34 - 5.20 = 28.8 m/s

$d_{s}$ = stopping distance after brakes are applied

$D$ = distance between sue and van = 160 m

$v_{f}$ = final speed of sue = 0 m/s

$a$ = acceleration = - 1.80 m/s²

Using the kinematics equation

$v_{f}^{2} = v_{o}^{2} + 2 a d_{s}$

$0^{2} = 28.8^{2} + 2 (1.80) d_{s}$

$d_{s} = 230.4$ m

Since $d_{s} < D$

hence there will be collision

Rex decides to launch a priceless vase into the air at a 90-degree angle. The initial velocity vase is +7.0 m/s. Dylan claims th

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

D. Dylan is incorrect because a 90-degree launch angle results in the largest vertical range

Explanation:

Projectile is the motion of an object thrown into space. When an object is thrown into space, the only force which acts on it is the acceleration due to gravity.

An object thrown into space would reach maximum height (vertical range) if it is launched at an angle of 90 degrees. For maximum horizontal range, the object needs to be launched at an angle of 45 degrees.

Therefore Dylan is incorrect because a 90-degree launch angle results in the largest vertical range

eduard

Answer:

the magnetic field is leaving the sheet

Explanation:

The magnetic force is given by the expression

F = q v x B

where bold letters indicate vectors, the modulus of this expression is

F = q v B sin θ

the direction of the force is given by the right hand rule, for a positive charge

the thumb indicates the direction of the speed, in this case from right to left

the palm the direction of the force, in our case upwards

the fingers extended the direction of the magnetic field, this case after fixing the other two components it points out of the blade

In short the magnetic field is leaving the sheet
