Dominic is the star discus thrower on South's varsity track and field team. In last year's regional competition, Dominic whirled

the 1.6 kg discus in a circle with a radius of 1.1m, ultimately reaching a speed of 52 m/s before launch. Determine the net force acting upon the discus in the moments before launch.

Answer:

The net force is 3933.1 N

Explanation:

Centripetal force (F) = mv^2/r

m is the mass of the discus = 1.6 kg

v is the speed of the discus = 52 m/s

r is the radius of the circle = 1.1 m

F = 1.6×52^2/1.1 = 3933.1 N

Crazy boy [7]
It would be a really bad idea to eat the snow because you obviously are trying to stay warm right? Well, the best thing to do is melt the snow. However, the process of melting the snow would have a few complications as well. But yes, the latter idea (drinking the snow) is a better idea (not the best).

You use a slingshot to launch a potato horizontally from the edge of a cliff with speed v0. The acceleration due to gravity is g
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

\displaystyle t=\frac{2v_o}{g}

Explanation:

<u>Horizontal Launch</u>

When an object is launched horizontally at a speed vo, it describes a curved called parabola as the speed in the x-direction does not change and the speed in the y-direction increases with time because the gravity makes it return to the ground.

The vertical distance the object (potato) travels downwards is:

\displaystyle y=\frac{gt^2}{2}

The horizontal distance is

x=v_ot

We need to find the time when both distances are equal, thus

\displaystyle \frac{gt^2}{2}=v_ot

Simplifying by t

\displaystyle \frac{gt}{2}=v_o

Solving for t

\displaystyle \boxed{t=\frac{2v_o}{g}}

A wooden piece is made in different shapes take length (l) = radius (r) = 2m Calculate its volume as a:
In-s [12.5K]

This question deals with the volume of different shapes.

a) volume of the sphere is "33.51 m³".

b) volume of the cylinder is "25.13 m³".

a)

The volume of a sphere is given by the following formula:

Volume = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3\\\\Volume = \frac{4}{3}\pi (2\ m)^3

<u>Volume = 33.51 m³</u>

<u />

b)

The volume of a cylinder is given by the following formula:

Volume = \pi r^2l\\\\Volume =\pi (2\ m)^2(2\ m)

<u>Volume = 25.13 m³</u>

<u />

Two objects, X and Y, move toward one another and eventually collide. Object X has a mass of 2M and is moving at a speed of 2v0
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

c. The force exerted by X on Y is F to the right, and the force exerted by Yon X is F to the left.

Explanation:

If we take both objects as one single system, during the collision, assuming no external forces acting, the only forces present are the one that object X exerts on object Y, and the force that object Y does on object X.

These two forces, according to Newton's 3rd Law, form an action-reaction pair, and consequently, are equal in magnitude, acting in opposite directions.

As the object X is moving to the right, the force that produces, (F), is in the same direction (on Y), while for object Y, moving to the left, the force that produces (F also in magnitude) is in the same direction (on X), so the right answer is c.

The effect of the forces is different, due to masses are different, according Newton's 2nd Law.
