Circumference of hand would be = 2πr = 2π(0.50) = π

Time in completing one complete rotation = 60 sec.

So, speed would be = π/60 m/s   OR    0.052 m/s.

A small rock is launched straight upward from the surface of a planet with no atmosphere. The initial speed of the rock is twice
Scorpion4ik [409]

If gravitational effects from other objects are negligible, the speed of the rock at a very great distance from the planet will approach a value of \sqrt{3} v_{e}

<u>Explanation:</u>

To express velocity which is too far from the planet and escape velocity by using the energy conservation, we get

Rock’s initial velocity , v_{i}=2 v_{e}. Here the radius is R, so find the escape velocity as follows,

            \frac{1}{2} m v_{e}^{2}-\frac{G M m}{R}=0

            \frac{1}{2} m v_{e}^{2}=\frac{G M m}{R}

            v_{e}^{2}=\frac{2 G M}{R}

            v_{e}=\sqrt{\frac{2 G M}{R}}

Where, M = Planet’s mass and G = constant.

From given conditions,

Surface potential energy can be expressed as,  U_{i}=-\frac{G M m}{R}

R tend to infinity when far away from the planet, so v_{f}=0

Then, kinetic energy at initial would be,

                  k_{i}=\frac{1}{2} m v_{i}^{2}=\frac{1}{2} m\left(2 v_{e}\right)^{2}

Similarly, kinetic energy at final would be,

                k_{f}=\frac{1}{2} m v_{f}^{2}

Here, v_{f}=\text { final velocity }

Now, adding potential and kinetic energies of initial and final and equating as below, find the final velocity as

                 U_{i}+k_{i}=k_{f}+v_{f}

                 \frac{1}{2} m\left(2 v_{e}\right)^{2}-\frac{G M m}{R}=\frac{1}{2} m v_{f}^{2}+0

                  \frac{1}{2} m\left(2 v_{e}\right)^{2}-\frac{G M m}{R}=\frac{1}{2} m v_{f}^{2}

'm' and \frac{1}{2} as common on both sides, so gets cancelled, we get as

                   4\left(v_{e}\right)^{2}-\frac{2 G M}{R}=v_{f}^{2}

We know, v_{e}=\sqrt{\frac{2 G M}{R}}, it can be wriiten as \left(v_{e}\right)^{2}=\frac{2 G M}{R}, we get

                4\left(v_{e}\right)^{2}-\left(v_{e}\right)^{2}=v_{f}^{2}

                v_{f}^{2}=3\left(v_{e}\right)^{2}

Taking squares out, we get,

                v_{f}=\sqrt{3} v_{e}

A 4.0-mF capacitor initially charged to 50 V and a 6.0-mF capacitor charged to 30 V are connected to each other with the positiv
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

<em>The final charge on the 6.0 mF capacitor would be 12 mC</em>

Explanation:

The initial charge on 4 mF capacitor  = 4 mf  x 50 V = 200 mC

The initial Charge on 6 mF capacitor  = 6 mf x 30 V =180 mC

Since the negative ends are joined together  the total charge on both capacity would be;

q = q_{1} -q_{2}

q = 200 - 180

q = 20 mC

In order to find the final charge on the 6.0 mF capacitor we have to find the combined voltage

q = (4 x V) + (6 x V)

20 = 10 V

V = 2 V

For the final charge on 6.0 mF;

q = CV

q = 6.0 mF x 2 V

q =  12 mC

Therefore the final charge on the 6.0 mF capacitor would be 12 mC

A tuning fork produces a sound with a frequency of 256 hz and a wavelength in air of 1.33 m. find the speed of sound in the vici
aalyn [17]
<span>We can think this through intuitively. A frequency of 256 Hz means that the wave has 256 cycles each second. If the wavelength is 1.33 meters, then there are 256 of them each second. Therefore, we just need to multiply the wavelength by the frequency to find the speed of sound. (Note that the units Hz = 1 / s) v = (frequency) x (wavelength) v = (256 Hz) x (1.33 m) v = 340.5 m/s The speed of sound in the vicinity of the fork is 340.5 m/s</span>

Some plants disperse their seeds when the fruit splits and contracts, propelling the seeds through the air. The trajectory of th
Anton [14]

Answer:

Option B, 93 cm

Explanation:

An diagram of the seed's motion is attached to this solution.

This is very close to a projectile motion question. And the quantity to be calculated, how far along the grant a seed released would travel is called the Range.

And this would be obtained from the equations of motion,

First of, the height of the plant is related to some quantities of the motion with this relation.

H = u(y) t + 0.5g(t^2)

U(y) = initial vertical component of velocity = 0 m/s, H = height at which motion began, = 20cm = 0.2 m

That means t = √(2H/g)

The horizontal distance covered, R,

R = u(x) t + 0.5g(t^2) = u(x) t (the second part of the equation goes to zero as the vertical component of the acceleration of this motion is 0)

(substituting the t = √(2H/g) derived from above

R = u(x) √(2H/g)

Where u(x) = the initial horizontal component of the bomb's velocity = maximum initial speed, that is, 4.6 m/s, H = vertical height at which the seed was released = 20 cm = 0.2 m, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s2

R = 4.6 √(2×0.2/9.8) = 0.929 m = 0.93 m = 93 cm. Option B.

QED!
