Centripetal Force (Fcp) = ?

His arm length = Radius (R) = 0.75 m

Discus velocity = Linear Velocity (V) = 5 m/s

Discus mass (m) = 2 kg

Centripetal Acceleration (Acp) = V^2/R or W^2 x R
In this case i will use the V^2/R formula, because it uses the discus velocity (V).

fcp = m \times acp \\ fcp = m \times {v}^{2} \div r \\ fcp = 2 \times {5}^{2} \div 0.75 \\ fcp = 2 \times 25 \div 0.75 \\ fcp = 50 \div 0.75
fcp = 66.666... = 66 \: newtons

Answer: Last option, 66 N.

Answer:

the answer is 66 N

Explanation:

Centripetal Force (Fcp) = ?

His arm length = Radius (R) = 0.75 m

Discus velocity = Linear Velocity (V) = 5 m/s

Discus mass (m) = 2 kg

Centripetal Acceleration (Acp) = V^2/R or W^2 x R

In this case i will use the V^2/R formula, because it uses the discus velocity (V).

A package is dropped from a helicopter that is descending steadily at a speed v0. After t seconds have elapsed, consider the fol
qaws [65]

Answer:

Part a)

v = \sqrt{v_o^2 + g^2t^2}

Part b)

d = \frac{1}{2}gt^2

Part c)

v_f = v_o - gt

Part d)

d = \frac{1}{2}gt^2

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that speed of package is same as that of helicopter in horizontal direction

So after time "t" the velocity in x direction will remain constant while in Y direction it will go free fall

So we have

v_y = -gt

v = \sqrt{v_x^2 + v_y^2}

v = \sqrt{v_o^2 + g^2t^2}

Part b)

Distance from helicopter is same as the distance of free fall

so we will have

d = \frac{1}{2}gt^2

Part c)

If helicopter is rising upwards with uniform speed

then final speed of the package after time t is given as

v_f = v_i + at

v_f = v_o - gt

Part d)

distance from helicopter

d = \frac{1}{2}gt^2

A very long, straight wire has charge per unit length 3.50×10^−10 C/m . At what distance from the wire is the electricfield magn
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

r= 2.17 m

Explanation:

Conceptual Analysis:

The electric field at a distance r from a charge line of infinite length and constant charge per unit length is calculated as follows:

E= 2k*(λ/r) Formula (1)

Where:

E: electric field .( N/C)

k: Coulomb electric constant. (N*m²/C²)

λ: linear charge density. (C/m)

r : distance from the charge line to the surface where E calculates (m)

Known data

E= 2.9  N/C

λ = 3.5*10⁻¹⁰ C/m

k= 8.99 *10⁹ N*m²/C²

Problem development

We replace data in the formula (1):

E= 2*k*(λ/r)

2.9= 2*8.99 *10⁹*(3.5*10⁻¹⁰/r)

r =( 2*8.99 *10⁹*3.5*10⁻¹⁰) / (2.9)

r= 2.17 m

the millersburg ferry (m=13000.0 kg loaded) puts its engines in full reverse and stops in 65 seconds. if the speed before brakin
kenny6666 [7]

The braking force is -400 N

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the impulse theorem, which states that the impulse applied on the ferry (the product of force and time) is equal to its change in momentum:

F \Delta t = m(v-u)

where in this problem, we have:

F is the force applied by the brakes

\Delta t = 65 s is the time interval

m = 13,000 kg is the mass of the ferry

u = 2.0 m/s is the initial velocity

v = 0 is the final velocity

And solving for F, we find the force applied by the brakes:

F=\frac{m(v-u)}{\Delta t}=\frac{(13000)(0-2.0)}{65}=-400 N

where the negative sign indicates that the direction is backward.
