A small 175-g ball on the end of a light string is revolving uniformly on a frictionless surface in a horizontal circle of diameter 1.0 m. The ball makes 2.0 revolutions every 1.0 s. What are the magnitude and direction of the acceleration of the ball? What's the tension in the string?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer :

Explanation :

It is given that:

mass of the ball, $m=175\ g=0.175\ Kg$

Radius of circle, $r=(diameter)/(2)=0.5\ m$

The ball makes 2.0 revolutions every 1.0 s. So, angular speed is $\omega=4\pi\ radian/sec$

Since, it is moving in circular path so centripetal acceleration will act here.

So, centripetal acceleration $\alpha$ = $m\omega^2r$

$\alpha=0.175\ Kg* (4\pi)^2* 0.5$

So, $\alpha=13.803\ m/s^2$

Hence, the acceleration is $13.803\ m/s^2$ and it is directed towards the center of rotation.

Tension is a force which is given by :

$F=ma$

$F=0.175\ Kg*13.803\ m/s^2$

$F=2.415\ N$

This is the required answer.

Answer 2

Answer: For circular motion.

Centripetal acceleration = mv²/r = mω²r

Where v = linear velocity, r = radius = diameter/2 = 1/2 = 0.5m

m = mass = 175g = 0.175kg.

Angular speed, ω = Angle covered / time

   = 2 revolutions / 1 second

   = 2 * 2π radians / 1 second

   = 4π radians / second

Centripetal Acceleration = mω²r = 0.175*(4π)² * 0.5 Use a calculator

   ≈13.817 m/s²

The magnitude of acceleration ≈13.817 m/s² and it is directed towards the center of rotation.

Tension in the string = m*a

   = 0.175*13.817

   = 2.418 N

The speed of light is about 3.00 × 105 km/s. It takes approximately 1.28 seconds for light reflected from the moon to reach Earth. What is the average distance from Earth to the moon?

Answers

Just to correct you - the speed of light is 3.0 x 10^5 km/sec and not 105 km/sec as given by you (maybe it was just a typing mistake from your end).

The average distance between earth and moon would be - 384,000 kms.

This is calculated by the formula -> Distance = Speed x Time.

What is the ultimate source of electromagnetic waves?A. Vibrating atoms
B. Vibrating molecules
C. Radio sets
D. Vibrating charged particles
E. TV antennas

Answers

The ultimate source of electromagnetic waves are the radio sets. The answer is letter C. One example of an electromagnetic radiation is the visible light. And visible light can be radio waves, infrared light and X - rays. The rays of the sun are a form of visible light. It has an electromagnetic radiation of UV (ultra violet) rays. That is why the radiation at day is greater than at day due to sun’s rays.

you apply the same amount of heat to five grams of substance a and five grams of substance b. the temperature of both substances increases by the same amount. what can you conclude?

Answers

From the given statement, it can be concluded that both substance a and substance b has the same heat capacity or thermal capacity. It can also be possible that both the substances are same and so their heat capacity or thermal capacity is also same. Thermal capacity of any substance is amount of energy that is required to raise the temperature of the substance through a specific range. Under normal circumstances this range varies from substance to substance based on the type.

(plato answer) The heat capacity of substance A is equal to the heat capacity of substance B.

How do similar (S-S or N-N) magnetic poles interact?

Answers

Magnets with the same polarity (N-N or S-S) repel one another along the same direction. This agrees to the common rule that like poles repel and unlike poles attract. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions.

Explanation:

Magnet has two poles: (1) North pole and (2) South pole.

Like poles repel each other. If the like poles are interacting each other then there will be force of repulsion in between these poles.

Unlike poles attract each other. If the unlike poles are interacting each other then there will be force of attraction in between these poles.

S-S and N-N magnetic poles repel each other.
