Where on a roller coaster is centripetal forces at work.

1 answer:

5 0

Regardless of where the cars are in the loop, centripetal force is always directed toward the center of rotation. So even if a car you're riding in is at the top of a loop, upside-down, you will feel pressed into your seat.

A 2kg ball is thrown with an acceleration of 15m/s2. A 2kg ball is thrown with an acceleration of 10m/s2. Which ball

DerKrebs [107]

A :-) for this question , we should apply
F = ma
( i ) Given - m = 2 kg
a = 15 m/s^2
Solution :
F = ma
F = 2 x 15
F = 30 N

( ii ) Given - m = 2 kg
a = 10 m/s^2
Solution :
F = ma
F = 2 x 10
F = 20 N

.:. The net force of object ( i ) has greater force compared to object ( ii ) by
( 30 - 20 ) 10 N

An electric field from a charge has a magnitude of 1.5 × 104 N/C at a certain location that points inward. If another charge wit

zysi [14]

Answer:

-0.045 N, they will attract each other

Explanation:

The strength of the electrostatic force exerted on a charge is given by

$F=qE$

where

q is the magnitude of the charge

E is the electric field magnitude

In this problem,

$q=3.0\cdot 10^{-6}C$

$E=-1.5\cdot 10^4 N/C$ (negative because inward)

So the strength of the electrostatic force is

$F=(-3.0\cdot 10^{-6}C)(1.5\cdot 10^4 N/C)=-0.045 N$

Moreover, the charge will be attracted towards the source of the electric field. In fact, the text says that the electric field points inward: this means that the source charge is negative, so the other charge (which is positive) is attracted towards it.

a scale model of the solar system where 50 cm represents 1.0x10 to the fifth km is actual distance what would be the dimension o

Fofino [41]

The distance between Mars and the Sun in the scale model would be 1140 m

Explanation:

In this scale model, we have:

$x_1 = 50 cm$ represents an actual distance of

$d_1 = 1.0\cdot 10^5 km$

The actual distance between Mars and the Sun is 228 million km, therefore

$d_2=228\cdot 10^6 km$

On the scale model, this would corresponds to a distance of $x_2$ .

Therefore, we can write the following proportion:

$\frac{x_1}{d_1}=\frac{x_2}{d_2}$

And solving for $x_2$ , we find:

$x_2=\frac{x_1 d_2}{d_1}=\frac{(50)(228\cdot 10^6)}{1\cdot 10^5}=1.14\cdot 10^5 cm = 1140 m$

As a capacitor is being charged in an RC circuit. the current flowing through a resistor isa) increasingb) decreasingc) constant

Montano1993 [528]

<h2>Answer: decreasing</h2>

An RC circuit is an electrical circuit composed of resistors and capacitors, where the charging time $T$ of the circuit is proportional to the magnitude of the electrical resistance $R$ and the capacity $C$ of the capacitor.

As shown below:

$T=R.C$

In this context, the electrical resistance is the opposition to the flow of electrons when moving through a conductor.

Therefore:

<h2>When a capacitor is being charged in an RC circuit, the current flowing through a resistor <u>decreases</u>.</h2>

And the correct option is b.
