Given the equation:
a = kr"vm
where a is the acceleration of a particle moving with speed v in a
circle of radius r, and k is a constant.
By using dimensional analysis prove this equation to determine
values of n and m, then write the simplest form of an equation for
the acceleration.
Slowing Down: The speed of an object moving through a viscous fluid is given byU(1) = A. c-br(a) If the numerical value of A (in SI units) is 5.20 and the numerical value of b (in SIunits) is 1.19, then what is the initial acceleration of the particle, at time / = 0?(b) How far does the particle move in the first 3.00 s?You may ignore gravity. The particle has the same density as the fluid.
