dalvyx [7]

Answer:

Part(a): The angular acceleration is $5.63~rad~s^{-2}$ .

Part(b): The angular displacement is $2629~rad$ .

Explanation:

Part(a):

If $\omega_{1},~\omega_{2}~and~\alpha$ be the initial angular speed, final angular speed and angular acceleration of the centrifuge respectively, then from rotational kinematic equation, we can write

$\alpha = \dfrac{\omega_{2} - \omega_{1}}{t}......................................................(I)$

where ' $t$ ' is the time taken by the centrifuge to increase its angular speed.

Given, $\omega_{i} = 250~rad~s^{-1}$ , $\omega_{f} = 750~rad~s^{-1}$ and $t = 9.5~s$ . From equation ( $I$ ), the angular acceleration is given by

$\alpha = \dfrac{750 - 250}{9.5}~rad~s^{-2} = 5.63~rad~s^{-2}$

Part(b):

Also the angular displacement ( $\Delta \theta$ ) can be written as

$&&\Delta \theta = \omega_{1}~t + \dfrac{1}{2}\alpha~t^{2}\\&or,& \Delta \theta = (250 \times 9.5 + \dfrac{1}{2} \times 5.63 \times 9.5^{2})~rad = 2629~rad$

Imagine that you replace the block in the video with a happy or sad ball identical to the one used as a pendulum, so that the sa

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer: a) The Answer to the question is option a) None of it.

Explanation:

The reason is because according to the law of conservation of energy Energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to the other. Therefore none of the kinetic energy was dissipated, rather it was transformed to another form of energy.

A plastic rod is rubbed against a wool shirt, thereby acquiring a charge of −4.9 µc. how many electrons are transferred from the

creativ13 [48]

To find the number of electrons transferred, we should divide the total charge acquired by the rod $Q=-4.9 \mu C=-4.9 \cdot 10^{-6}C$ by the charge of a single electron ( $e=-1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C$ ), and we find:
$N= \frac{Q}{e}= \frac{-4.9 \cdot 10^{-6}C}{-1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C} =3.1 \cdot 10^{13}$

An electron and a proton, starting from rest, are accelerated through an electric potential difference of the same magnitude. in

Yakvenalex [24]

The charges are the same in absolute value, so the change of potential energy is the same. That means that the change in kinetic energy is also the same. Then:

1 = Ke/Kp = m_e *v_e^2 / m_p * v_p^2, or

v_e/v_p = sqrt( m_p/m_e),

So the speed of the electron will be sqrt( m_p/m_e) times greater than the speed of the proton

A robotic rover on Mars finds a spherical rock with a diameter of 10 centimeters [cm]. The rover picks up the rock and lifts it

Makovka662 [10]

Answer: 5166.347

Explanation:

The specific gravity of a solid $SG$ (also called relative density) is the ratio of the density of that solid $\rho_{rock}$ to the density of water $\rho_{water}=1 kg/m^{3}$ (normally at $4\°C$ ):

$SG=\frac{\rho_{rock}}{\rho_{water}}$ (1)

On the other hand, the density of the rock is calculated by:

$\rho_{rock}=\frac{m_{rock}}{V_{rock}}$ (2)

Where:

$m_{rock}$ is the mass of the rock

$V_{rock}=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}$ is the volume of the rock, since is spherical

Well, we already know the value of $\rho_{water}$ , but we need to find $\rho_{rock}$ in order to find the rock's specific gravity; and in order to do this, we firsly have to find $m_{rock}$ and then calculate $V_{rock}$ :

In the case of the mass of the rock, we can calclate it by the following equation:

$W_{rock}=m_{rock}g_{mars}$ (3)

Where:

$W_{rock}$ is the weight if the rock in mars

$g_{mars}=3.7 m/s^{2}$ is the acceleration due gravity in Mars

Isolating $m_{rock}$ :

$m_{rock}=\frac{W_{rock}}{g_{mars}}$ (4)

$m_{rock}=\frac{W_{rock}}{3.7 m/s^{2}}$ (5)

To find $W_{rock}$ we can use the following equation of the potential gravitational energy $U$ :

$U=W_{rock}H$ (6)

Where:

$U=2 J=2 Nm$ is the potential energy

$H=20 cm \frac{1m}{100 cm}=0.2 m$ is the height at which the rock has the mentioned potential energy

Isolating $W_{rock}$ :

$W_{rock}=\frac{U}{H}$ (7)

$W_{rock}=\frac{2 Nm}{0.2 m}$ (8)

$W_{rock}=10 N$ (9)

Substituting (9) in (5):

$m_{rock}=\frac{10 N}{3.7 m/s^{2}}$ (10)

$m_{rock}=2.702 kg$ (11)

Substituting (11) in (2):

$\rho_{rock}=\frac{2.702 kg}{V_{rock}}$ (12) At this point we only need to find the volume of the rock, knowing its diameter is $d=10 cm$ , hence its radius is $r=\frac{d}{2}=5 cm$

$V_{rock}=\frac{4}{3} \pi (5 cm)^{3}$ (13)

$V_{rock}=523.59 cm^{3} \frac{1 m^{3}}{(100 cm)^{3}}=0.000523 m^{3}$ (14)

Substituting (14) in (12):

$\rho_{rock}=\frac{2.702 kg}{0.000523 m^{3}}$ (15)

$\rho_{rock}=5166.34 kg/m^{3}$ (16)

Substituting (16) in (1):

$SG=\frac{5166.34 kg/m^{3}}{1 kg/m^{3}}$ (17)

Finally we obtain the specific gravity of the rock:

$SG=5166.347$
