The speed is changing its direction all the time. There
is an acceleration which changes the direction of the speed – that is called
centripetal acceleration. Only uniform linear motions are considered to have no
acceleration.
This is the general formula for acceleration
a = dv/dt
When calculating dv, you should keep in mind the change
in the velocity vector’s direction. You can easily see in a graph that with dt
tending to 0 (so the length of the arc covered is also tending to 0), the difference
between vectors Vf and V0 has a direction which is perpendicular to velocity
(the shorter the arc, the closest the angle is to 90 degrees).
There is a formula (which can be deducted from the
previous formula) which allows you to calculate the acceleration:
a = v^2/r
Let’s talk about the units:
v is in m/s
r is in m
so v^2/r
is in (m/s)^2/m = (m^2/s^2)/m = m/s^2
which is the same unit as dv/dt:
dv/dt = (m/s)/s= m/s^2
The answer is: Motion!
Have a great day
Answer:
Newton (N)
Explanation:
A newton is the unit of measurement for force
Answer:
He's 3 miles west of school.
Explanation:
He went 5 miles up and 5 miles down which means that he really didn't go up or down. In between that, he went 3 miles west so if the 5 milers don't count, this puts him at 3 miles west of school.
Many ways, but some of the most famous are kicks (side, back, front, snap) or a smash.
Hope it helped! :)
