How do you calculate centripetal acceleration?

Physics
1 answer:
Delvig [45]2 years ago
8 0

A particle has centripetal acceleration whenever it's a making a turn of radius R. If the particle is moving at a constant tangential speed v throughout the turn, then the magnitude of centripetal acceleration is

v²/R

If the particle is following a uniformly circular path, then it moves in a circle of radius R and travels a distance equal to its circumference, 2πR. Let T be the time it takes to complete one such loop. Then the entire circle is traversed with speed v = 2πR/T, so that the centripetal acceleration is also given by

v²/R = (2πR/T)²/R = 4π²R/T²

IrinaVladis [17]
Convergent boundaries move towards each other. They can be classified as continental-continental, or oceanic-continental.

Oceanic-Continental: Heavier oceanic plate slides under a continental plate in a process called subduction.

Continental-Continental: Tectonic plates push up against each other and often fold upwards, creating mountain ranges.

At high noon, the sun delivers 1150 w to each square meter of a blacktop road. if the hot asphalt loses energy only by radiation
Pie
Stephen`s Law:
P = (Sigma) · A · e · T^4
P in = P out
e = 1 for blacktop;
1150 W = (Sigma) · T^4
(Sigma) = 5.669 · 10 ^(-8) W/m²K^4
T^4 = 1150 : ( 5.669 · 10^(-8) )
T^4 = 202.875 · 10^8
T =  \sqrt[4]{202.857 * 10 ^{8} }
T = 3.774 · 10² = 377.4 K
Answer: Equilibrium temperature is 377.4 K.

A box falls off of a tailgate and slides along the street for a distance of 62.5 m. Friction slows the box at –5.0 m/s2. At what
Mila [183]

Answer:

25 m/s

Explanation:

This question can be solved using equation of motion

v^2 = u^2 + 2as

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

s is the distance covered while moving from initial to final velocity

a is the acceleration

_____________________________________________

Given

box moved for distance of 62.5 m

Friction slows the box at –5.0 m/s2----> this statement means that there is deceleration , speed of truck decreases by 5 m/s in every second until the box comes to rest. Friction causes this deceleration.

thus in this problem

a = -5.0 m/s2

V = 0   as body came to rest due to friction deceleration

u the initial velocity we have to find

the initial velocity of box will be the same as speed of truck, as the box was in the truck and hence box will pick the speed of truck.

so if we find speed of box, we will be able get sped of truck as well.

using equation of motion

v^2 = u^2 + 2as\\0^2 = u^2 + 2*-5* 62.5\\0 = u^2 - 625\\u^2 = 625\\\sqrt{u^2} = \sqrt{625} \\u = 25

Thus, initial speed with the truck was travelling was 25 m/s.
