Answer: X
Explanation:
This situation can be illustrated as a car in circular motion (image attached).
In circular motion the acceleration vector is always directed toward the center of the circumference (that's why it's called centripetal acceleration).
So, in this case the arrow labeled X is the only that points toward the center, hence it represents the car's centripetal acceleration
Answer:
6N
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Pressure applied by the woman = 300N/m²
Area = 0.02m²
Unknown:
Force applied = ?
Solution:
Pressure is the force per unit area on a body
Pressure =
Force = Pressure x area
Force = 300 x 0.02 = 6N
Answer:
A) θ = 13.1º , B) E
Explanation:
A) For this exercise, let's use Newton's second law, let's set a reference frame where the axis ax is in the radial direction and is horizontal, the axis y is vertical.
In this reference system the only force that we must decompose is the Normal one, let's use trigonometry
sin θ = Nₓ / N
cos θ = / N
Nₓ = N sin θ
Ny = N cos θ
x-axis (radial)
Nₓ = m a
where the acceleration is centripetal
a = v² / R
we substitute
-N sin θ = -m v² / R (1)
the negative sign indicates that the force and acceleration towards the center of the circle
y-axis (Vertical)
Ny - W = 0
N cos θ = mg
N = mg / cos θ
we substitute in 1
mg / cos θ sin θ = m v² / R
g tan θ = v² / R
θ = tan⁻¹ (v² / gR)
we calculate
θ = tan⁻¹ (25² / 9.8 274)
θ = 13.1º
B) when comparing the equations the correct one is E
