Merry-go-rounds are a common ride in park playgrounds. The ride is a horizontal disk that rotates about a vertical axis at their

center. A rider sits at the outer edge of the disk and holds onto a metal bar while someone pushes on the ride to make it rotate. Suppose that a typical time for one rotation is 4.0 s and the diameter of the ride is 10 ft.A. For this typical time, what is the speed of the rider in m/s?B. What is the rider's radial acceleration, in m/s?C. What is the rider's radial acceleration if the time for one rotation is halved?

Answer:

A = 2.36m/s

B = 3.71m/s²

C = 29.61m/s2

Explanation:

First, we convert the diameter of the ride from ft to m

10ft = 3m

Speed of the rider is the

v = circumference of the circle divided by time of rotation

v = [2π(D/2)]/T

v = [2π(3/2)]/4

v = 3π/4

v = 2.36m/s

Radial acceleration can also be found as a = v²/r

Where v = speed of the rider

r = radius of the ride

a = 2.36²/1.5

a = 3.71m/s²

If the time of revolution is halved, then radial acceleration is

A = 4π²R/T²

A = (4 * π² * 3)/2²

A = 118.44/4

A = 29.61m/s²

A block spring system oscillates on a frictionless surface with an amplitude of 10\text{ cm}10 cm and has an energy of 2.5 \text
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

The energy of the system is 15 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Energy E = 2.5 J

Amplitude = 10 cm

We need to calculate the spring constant

Using formula of mechanical energy of the system

E=\dfrac{1}{2}kA^2

Put the value into the formula

2.5=\dfrac{1}{2}k\times(10\times10^{-2})^2

k=\dfrac{2.5\times2}{(10\times10^{-2})^2}

k=500\ N/m

If the block is replaced by a block with twice the mass of the original block

Amplitude = 6 cm

We need to calculate the energy

Using formula of mechanical energy

E=\dfrac{1}{2}kA^2

Put the value into the formula

E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times500\times(6\times10^{-2})

E=15\ J

Hence, The energy of the system is 15 J.

A flywheel of diameter 1.2 m has a constant angular acceleration of 5.0 rad/s2. the tangential acceleration of a point on its ri
vodka [1.7K]
We know that tangential acceleration is related with radius and angular acceleration according the following equation:  
at = r * aa  
where at is tangential acceleration (in m/s2), r is radius (in m) aa is angular acceleration (in rad/s2)  
So the radius is r = d/2 = 1.2/2 = 0.6 m  
Then at = 0.6 * 5 = 3 m/s2  
Tangential acceleration of a point on the flywheel rim is 3 m/s2

Calculate the current through a 10.0-m long 22-gauge nichrome wire with a radius of 0.321 mm if it is connected across a 12.0-V
Kipish [7]

Answer:

Therefore,

Current through Nichrome wire is 0.3879 Ampere.

Explanation:

Given:

Length = l = 10 meter

Radius = r = 0.321\ mm =0.321\times 10^{-3}\ meter

Resistivity=\rho=1.00\times 10^{-6}\ ohm\ meter

V = 12 Volt

To Find:

Current, I =?

Solution:

Resistance for 0.0-m long 22-gauge nichrome wire with a radius of 0.321 mm if it is connected across a 12.0-V battery given as

R=\dfrac{\rho\times l}{A}

Where,

R = Resistance

l = length

A = Area of cross section = πr²

\rho=Resistivity=1.00\times 10^{-6}\ ohm\ meter

Substituting the values we get

R=\dfrac{1\times 10^{-6}\times 10}{3.14\times (0.321\times 10^{-3})^{2}}

R=\dfrac{1\times 10^{-5}}{3.23\times 10^{-7}}

R=\dfrac{1\times 10^{2}}{3.23}

R=30.95\ ohm

Now by Ohm's Law,

V= I\times R

Substituting the values we get

I=\dfrac{V}{R}=\dfrac{12}{30.95}=0.3876\ Ampere

Therefore,

Current through Nichrome wire is 0.3879 Ampere.

A highway curve with radius R = 274 m is to be banked so that a car traveling v = 25.0 m/s will not skid sideways even in the ab
belka [17]

Answer:

A)   θ = 13.1º  , B)  E

Explanation:

A) For this exercise, let's use Newton's second law, let's set a reference frame where the axis ax is in the radial direction and is horizontal, the axis y is vertical.

In this reference system the only force that we must decompose is the Normal one, let's use trigonometry

        sin θ = Nₓ / N

        cos θ = N_{y} / N

        Nₓ = N sin θ

       Ny = N cos θ

x-axis (radial)

        Nₓ = m a

where the acceleration is centripetal

         a = v² / R

we substitute

        -N sin θ = -m v² / R                   (1)

the negative sign indicates that the force and acceleration towards the center of the circle

y-axis (Vertical)

          Ny - W = 0

           N cos θ = mg

           N = mg / cos θ

we substitute in 1

          mg / cos θ  sin θ = m v² / R

          g tan θ = v² / R

          θ = tan⁻¹ (v² / gR)

we calculate

        θ = tan⁻¹ (25² / 9.8 274)

        θ = 13.1º

B) when comparing the equations the correct one is E

Consider a wave along the length of a stretched slinky toy, where the distance between coils increases and decreases. What type
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

"Longitudinal wave" is the appropriate answer.

Explanation:

  • Generating waves whenever the form of communication being displaced in a similar direction as well as in the reverse way of the wave's designated points, could be determined as Longitudinal waves.
  • A wave running the length of something like a Slinky stuffed animal, which expands as well as reduces the spacing across spindles, produces a fine image or graphic.
