In a circular motion scenario, the force that pulls the revolving object towards the centre is the force that produces the centripetal acceleration. So, in this case, the tension on the string is the force that pulls the puck towards the centre.

Therefore, it is the tension in the string that causes the centripetal acceleration of the puck

Hope I helped!! xx

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

  v = 54.2 m / s

Explanation:

Let's use energy conservation for this problem.

Starting point Higher

         Em₀ = U = m g h

Final point. Lower

        Em_{f} = K = ½ m v²

        Em₀ = Em_{f}

        m g h = ½ m v²

         v² = 2gh

         v = √ 2gh

Let's calculate

         v = √ (2 9.8 150)

         v = 54.2 m / s

Water waves in a small tank are .06 m long. They pass a given point at a rate of 14.8 waves every three seconds. What is the spe
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

Speed = 0.296m/2

Period = 0.203 s

Explanation:

If by 'long' you mean the wavelength of the waves, then the wavelength \lambda=0.06m.

The frequency f of the waves is 14.8 waves every 3 seconds or

f=14.8/3 =4.33Hz.

Now the relationship between wavelength \lambda, frequency f and speed v of the waves is:

v=\lambda f

We put in the values \lambda=0.06m and f=4.933Hz and get:

\boxed{v=0.06*4.922=0.296m/s}

Now the period T is just the inverse of the frequency, or

T=\frac{1}{f}

\boxed{T=\frac{1}{4.933}=0.203\:seconds }

An uncharged spherical conducting shell surrounds a charge –q at the center of the shell. Then charge +3q is placed on the outsi
Veronika [31]

Answer:

a) The the charges on the inner and outer surfaces of the shell are respectively +q, -q

Explanation:

Under static equilibrium inside a conductor, the total electric field, E = 0

This must be zero so that no charge will be moving since the conductor is in static equilibrium.

Also, since Electric field, E is zero, then flux through the surface will zero.

From Gauss' law, the total charge enclosed is zero.

Given –q as the  charge at the center of the shell, then the opposite charge on inner surfaces  will be +q, so that the total charge enclosed will be zero.

Since the charge is in static equilibrium, then opposite charge will be on the surface, that is –q.

Therefore, the the charges on the inner and outer surfaces of the shell are respectively +q, -q

melomori [17]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

A block of mass m begins at rest at the top of a ramp at elevation h with whatever PE is associated with that height. The block slides down the ramp over a distance d until it reaches the bottom of the ramp.

How much of its original total energy (in J) survives as KE when it reaches the ground? m = 9.9 kg h = 4.9 m d = 5 m μ = 0.3 θ = 36.87°

Answer:

the amount of its original total energy (in J) that survives as KE when it reaches the ground will is 358.975 J

Explanation:

Given that;

m = 9.9 kg

h = 4.9 m

d = 5 m

μ = 0.3

θ = 36.87°

Now from conservation of energy, the energy is;

Et = mgh

we substitute

Et = 9.9 × 9.8 × 4.9

= 475.398 J

Also the loss of energy i

E_loss = (umg cosθ) d

we substitute

E_loss  = 0.3 × 9.9 × 9.8 × cos36.87°  × 5

= 116.423 J

so the amount of its original total energy (in J) that survives as KE when it reaches the ground will be

E = Et - E_loss

E = 475.398 J - 116.423 J

E = 358.975 J

You wad up a piece of paper and throw it into the wastebasket. How far will
vitfil [10]

The range of the piece of paper is C) 1.4 m

Explanation:

The motion of the piece of paper is the motion of a projectile, which consists of two separate motions:

- A uniform motion along the horizontal direction, with constant velocity

- A uniformly accelerated motion along the vertical direction, with constant acceleration (the acceleration of gravity, g=9.8 m/s^2)

From the equation of motion, it is possible to find an expression for the range (the total horizontal distance covered) of a projectile, which is given by:

d=\frac{u^2 sin 2\theta}{g}

where

u is the initial velocity

\theta is the angle of projection

g is the acceleration of gravity

For the piece of paper in this problem,

u = 4.3 m/s

\theta=65^{\circ}

Substituting,

d=\frac{(4.3)^2 sin(2\cdot 65^{\circ})}{9.8}=1.45 m \sim 1.4 m
