Answer:

East

Explanation:

In circular motion, the velocity of the object will always be tangential to the radius of the circle. In this case, since the car is at the northernmost point of the circular track, then it must be moving right or towards the east, no matter what the acceleration might be at that very moment or what the radius of the track is. If it's moving clockwise, then it moves right (towards the east).

A 20kg mass approaches a spring at a speed of 30 m/s. The mass compresses the spring 12cm before coming to a stop. Calculate the
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

625000 N/ m

Explanation:

m= 20 kg

v= 30 m/s

x= 12 cm

k = ?

Here when the mass when hits at spring its speed is

Vi= 30 m/s

Finally it comes to rest after compressing for 12 cm

i-e Vf = 0 m/s

Distance= S= 12 cm = 0.12 m

using

2aS= Vf2 - Vi2

==> 2a ×0.12 = o- 30 × 30

==> a = 900 ÷ 0.24 = 3750 m/sec2

Now we know;

F = ma

F= -Kx

==> ma= -kx

==> 20 × 3750 = -K × 0.12

==> k = 625000 N/ m

A police siren of frequency fsiren is attached to a vibrating platform. The platform and siren oscillate up and down in simple h
babunello [35]

Answer:

he maximum frequency occurs when the denominator is minimum

 f’= f₀  \frac{343}{343 + v_s}

Explanation:

This is a doppler effect exercise, where the sound source is moving

           f = fo \frac{v}{v-v)s}      when the source moves towards the observer

           f ’=f_o  \frac{v}{v+v_{sy}}  Alexandrian source of the observer

the maximum frequency occurs when the denominator is minimum, for both it is the point of maximum approach of the two objects

          f’= f₀  \frac{343}{343 + v_s}

Which of the following forms of radiation can penetrate up to a 2-cm layer of skin tissue?
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

d). X-rays

Explanation:

X -rays are also called photons. They are a packet of electro magnetic radiation. X rays originate from the shell of the electron.  X rays are highly penetrating, and have a shorter wavelength than alpha particles and the beta particles. They are similar to the gamma rays which are also has a high penetrating power and easily pass through the human body.

 Thus X rays can penetrate a skin tissue upto 2 cm thickness.

You lower the temperature of a sample of liquid carbon disulfide from 90.3 ∘ C until its volume contracts by 0.507 % of its init
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

T_{f} = 85.89 ° C

Explanation:

The linear thermal expansion process is given by

      ΔL = L α ΔT

For the three-dimensional case, the expression takes the form

     ΔV = V β ΔT

Let's apply this equation to our case

     ΔV / V = ​​-0.507% = -0.507 10-2

     ΔT = (ΔV / V)  1 /β

     ΔT = -0.507 10⁻²  1 / 1.15 10⁻³

     ΔT = -4.409

     T_{f} –T₀ = 4,409

     T_{f} = T₀ - 4,409

     T_{f} = 90.3-4409

     T_{f} = 85.89 ° C

Q 10.17: Which of the following statements concerning simple harmonic motion is false? A : A restoring force acts on an object i
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

A : A restoring force acts on an object in simple harmonic motion that is directed in the same direction as the object's displacement.

Explanation:

Statement A is the false one:

A : A restoring force acts on an object in simple harmonic motion that is directed in the same direction as the object's displacement. --> FALSE. The restoring force in the simple harmonic motion is given by

F=-kx

where

k is the spring constant

x is the displacement of the system, measured with respect to the equilibrium position

As we can notice from the equation, there is a negative sign in front of (kx): this means that the force, F, and the displacement, x, have opposite directions. In fact, the restoring force of a simple harmonic oscillator always acts to restore the equilibrium position, therefore it acts in the opposite direction as that of the displacement.
