Question
Chapter 5, Problem 1P
To determine
The magnitude of the centripetal acceleration of the car.
Expert Solution & Answer

Answer to Problem 1P
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The radius of the circular track,
The time taken by the car to cover the track once,
Formula used:
The centripetal acceleration is given by,
Where v is the speed of the object, and r is the radius of the curve covered by the object.
And, the time period of rotation on a circular track can be written in terms of linear speed as,
Calculation:
Combining above two formulas, we get,
Using given values in above equation,
Conclusion:
The magnitude of the centripetal acceleration of the car is

Hi! I need help with these calculations for part i and part k for a physics Diffraction Lab. We used a slit width 0.4 mm to measure our pattern.
Examine the data and % error values in Data Table 3 where the angular displacement of the simple pendulum decreased but the mass of the pendulum bob and the length of the pendulum remained constant. Describe whether or not your data shows that the period of the pendulum depends on the angular displacement of the pendulum bob, to within a reasonable percent error.
In addition to the anyalysis of the graph, show mathematically that the slope of that line is 2π/√g . Using the slope of your line calculate the value of g and compare it to 9.8.
