Hi can you plese help me, i dont know how to solve this assignment A car starts from rest along a circular path of radius 30 m. Its tangential acceleration is0.5 m*s^{-2}. determine a acceleration in t=15s after start. At t=15s, What angle does the car's acceleration vector make with the car's vectorof speed? Thank You
help please. i found the magnitude and the magnitude is 12m/s^2 but i’m not sure what the direction is please let me know what the direction of the carts centripetal acceleration is
To test the effects of high acceleration onthe human body, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) constructed a large centrifuge at the Manned SpacecraftCenter in Houston. In this device, astronauts were placed in a capsulethat moved in a circular path with a radius of 15 m. If the astronautsin this centrifuge experienced a centripetal acceleration 9.0 timesthat of gravity, what was the linear speed of the capsule?
A rotating fan completes 1100 revolutions every minute. Consider the tip of a blade, at a radius of 0.18 m. Through what distance does the tip move in one revolution? What is the tip's speed? What is the magnitude of its acceleration? What is the period of the motion?
An astronaut is being tested in a centrifuge. The centrifuge has a radius of 2 m and, in starting, rotates according to θ = 6t^2, where t is in seconds and θ is in radians. When t = 5 s, what are the magnitudes of the astronaut’s (a) tangential acceleration, and (b) radial acceleration?
