In the figure, a washer rotates on a string (string not shown) in the circular path shown in red. Which arrow best describes the velocity vector at that instant in time? (Points : 1) arrow A arrow B arrow C arrow D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (perl):

the velocity arrow is tangential to the circle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So which arrow is it?

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

Well judging from the circle pointing left, we can assuming the washer is travelling counterclockwise around the circle...so at the top...it would be going (in what arrowed direction) to continue travelling in that direction?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

there was a question at the end :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sorry my laptop is dying so i'am charging it now but I would think south east? or am i ?wrong

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

Not quite.... so look at it like this |dw:1415142398339:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OH THAT MAKES SENSE NOW!

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

|dw:1415142453888:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so it would be arrow b?

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

Indeed^ :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks I need more help with more questions i would love your help!

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

If I can :)

. A runner moving at a speed of 10.0 m/s rounds a bend with a 25.0 m radius. What is the centripetal acceleration that she experiences? (Points : 1) 0.40 m/s2 62.5 m/s2 2.50 m/s2 4.00 m/s2

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

Hint...the centripetal acceleration is expressed as \[\large A_c = \frac{v^2}{r}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So its Ac=10^2/25 ?

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

mmhmm...which can be simplified to...:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

aka 4.00

OpenStudy (anonymous):

???

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

Oops sorry yes 4 ^_^ lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks!

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

no problem :)

. A 70.0 kg runner moving at a speed of 10.0 m/s rounds a bend with a 25.0 m radius. What is the centripetal force that she experiences? (Points : 1) 175 N 280 N 28.0 N 4375 N

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sorry I need a lot of help! Cyber school the worst !

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

No its okay :) and entripetal force is very similar...we just have \[\large F_c = \frac{mv^2}{r}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Where are these equations my physics teacher never showed us them

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

Lol well Ive taken 3 physics courses since I started college and I learned this in first semester...kinematics

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and so it would be Fc=70.0^2/25 ?

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

Not quite....you forgot the v :) unless that decimal is not supposed to be there regardless...you square the velocity first...then multiply by the mass etc...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you show me how ? write the equation with the proper numbers in it? its . A 70.0 kg runner moving at a speed of 10.0 m/s rounds a bend with a 25.0 m radius. What is the centripetal force that she experiences? (Points : 1) 175 N 280 N 28.0 N 4375 N

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

So we have \[\large F_c = \frac{mv^2}{r}\] Plug in what numbers you have \[\large F_c = \frac{(70)(10)^2}{25}\] Remember the orderof operations....exponents first...so \[\large F_c = \frac{(70)(100)}{25}\] \[\large F_c = \frac{700}{25}\] \[\large F_c = ?\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

28!

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

Indeed^ :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

28 newtons!

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

Lol yes correct :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got a whole lot more is it fine you can still help me? honestly this is the best help ive have gotten with physics is so long! I appreciate it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:D

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

Lol I'm happy its making sense hun :) and sure I'm just studying for a calc test so I'm on here anyways lol :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What causes the centripetal acceleration of an electron in a hydrogen atom? (Points : 1) electrical attraction gravity friction tension SO>

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I believe it would be tension?

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

Hmm, I'm actually not too sure on this one...not sure why it would be tension however, I would go to electrical attraction before that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I read it wrong! ugh you are right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:D

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

^_^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which of the following terms might a jet pilot use to describe a force that presses him against his seat during a high-speed turn? (Points : 1) radial force centrifugal force tangential force perpendicular force

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

You know this one :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This is really confusing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Would it be c or d?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Im wrong ?

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

Sorry I actually read this wrong...the answer wording is terrible lol Well b is not actually real. So it cannot be that It cant be radial because that would follow the circle.. Tangential? Idk perhaps Perpendicular force? dont think so...it would mean you would go foward if the plane is going left or right I'd go with tangential maybe...sorry not too sure here

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well i got a 3 out of 6 thanks again!

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

Does it tell you which is incorrect?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it was the last one

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

Which ones did *we* get wrong?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The last one thats all & i just got the wrong 28 and i did one on my own but its okay i got an 80%

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

Oh okay...sorry i just wasnt too sure on that last one :(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

. A point on the tread of a tire with a radius of 0.50 m rotates one-quarter turn, which is /2 radians. What is the linear distance of the displacement? (Points : 1) 0.32 m 0.45 m 0.79 m 1.6 m

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And thats completely fine!
