Answer:

50.176 [m].

Explanation:

1) the required height can be calculated using the formula:

h=V₀*t+1/2* g*t₂, where V₀ - initial velocity of the rock, t - elapsed time, g - 9.8 m/s²;

2) if V₀=0, t=3.2, g=9.8, then

h=0.5*9.8*3.2²=1024*49*10⁻³=50.176 [m].≈50[m].

8. An unpowered flywheel is slowed by a constant frictional torque. At time t = 0 it has an angular velocity of 200 rad/s. Ten s
allsm [11]

Answer:

a) \omega = 50\,\frac{rad}{s}, b) \omega = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}

Explanation:

The magnitude of torque is a form of moment, that is, a product of force and lever arm (distance), and force is the product of mass and acceleration for rotating systems with constant mass. That is:

\tau = F \cdot r

\tau = m\cdot a \cdot r

\tau = m \cdot \alpha \cdot r^{2}

Where \alpha is the angular acceleration, which is constant as torque is constant. Angular deceleration experimented by the unpowered flywheel is:

\alpha = \frac{170\,\frac{rad}{s} - 200\,\frac{rad}{s} }{10\,s}

\alpha = -3\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}

Now, angular velocities of the unpowered flywheel at 50 seconds and 100 seconds are, respectively:

a) t = 50 s.

\omega = 200\,\frac{rad}{s} - \left(3\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}} \right) \cdot (50\,s)

\omega = 50\,\frac{rad}{s}

b) t = 100 s.

Given that friction is of reactive nature. Frictional torque works on the unpowered flywheel until angular velocity is reduced to zero, whose instant is:

t = \frac{0\,\frac{rad}{s}-200\,\frac{rad}{s} }{\left(-3\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}} \right)}

t = 66.667\,s

Since t > 66.667\,s, then the angular velocity is equal to zero. Therefore:

\omega = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}

The end of a stopped pipe is to be cut off so that the pipe will be open. If the stopped pipe has a total length L, what fractio
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

4/10 of L.

Explanation:

A stopped pipe is a pipe with one closed end and one opened end. it is also called a closed pipe.

The fundamental mode of a stopped pipe is also called its fundamental frequency, and is f₁=v/4L.

Where f₁=fundamental frequency, v= velocity of sound, L= Length of pipe.

The fifth harmonic of the stopped pipe f₅ =5v/4L .................(1)

For an open pipe,

Fundamental  mode is also called fundamental frequency f₁₀=v/2l₀ .......... (2)

Where f₁₀ = fundamental frequency of a closed pipe, v= velocity of sound and l₀=length of the resulting open pipe.

from the question, the fundamental mode of the resulting open pipe = The fifth harmonic of the original stopped pipe.

∴ f₅=f₁₀

⇒5v/4L = v/2l₀

Equating v from both side of the equation,

⇒ 5/4L = 1/2l₀

Cross multiplying the equation,

5×2l₀ = 4L× 1

10l₀ = 4L

Dividing both side of the equation by the coefficient of l₀ i.e 10

10l₀/10 = 4L/10

∴ l₀ = 4/10(L)

∴ 4/10 of L must be cut off

De Vico Comet orbits the Sun every 74.0 years and has an orbital eccentricity of 0.96. Find the comet's average distance from th
Debora [2.8K]

Answer: The comet's average distance from the sun is 17.6AU

Explanation:

From Kepler's 3rd Law, P^2=a^3

Where P is period in years

and a is length of semi-major axis or the average distance of the comet to the sun.

Given the orbital period to be 74 years

74^2 =a^3

5476 = a^3

Cube root of 5476 =a

17.626 = a

Approximately a= 17.6 AU

A rectangular coil of dimensions 5.40cm x 8.50cm consists of25 turns of wire. The coil carries a current of 15.0 mA.
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

(a) Magnetic moment will be 17.212\times 10^{-4}A-m^2

(b) Torque will be 6.024\times 10^{-4}N-m

Explanation:

We have given dimension of the rectangular 5.4 cm × 8.5 cm

So area of the rectangular coil A=5.4\times 8.5=45.9cm^2=45.9\times 10^{-4}m^2

Current is given as i=15mA=15\times 10^{-3}A

Number of turns N = 25

(A) We know that magnetic moment is given by magnetic\ moment=NiA=25\times 45.9\times 10^{-4}\times 15\times 10^{-3}=17.212\times 10^{-4}A-m^2

(b) Magnetic field is given as B = 0.350 T

We know that torque is given by \tau =BINA=0.350\times 15\times 10^{-3}\times 25\times 45.9\times 10^{-4}=6.024\times 10^{-4}N-m
