if one sprinter runs the 400.0 m in 58 seconds and another can run the same distance in 60.0 seconds, by how much distance will

the faster person win by if they race?

They will win by approximately .2m
Divide 400/58=6.9m while the other person is 400/60=6.6 thus he will win by about .2m

The hammer throw was one of the earliest Olympic events. In this event, a heavy ball attached to a chain is swung several times

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

Given that

T= 0.43 s

Radius of the ball path's , r=2.1 m

a)

We know that

f= 1/T

Here f= frequency

T= Time period

Now by putting the values

f= 1/T

T= 0.43 s

f= 1/0.43

f=2.32 Hz

b)

We know that

V= ω r

ω = 2 π f

ω=Angular speed

V= Linear speed

ω = 2 π f=ω = 2 x π x 2.32 =14.60 rad/s

V= ω r= 14.60 x 2.1 = 30.66 m/s

c)

Acceleration ,a

a =ω ² r

a= 14.6 ² x 2.1 = 447.63 m/s²

We know that g = 10 m/s²

So

a= a/g= 447.63/10 = 44.7 g m/s²

a= 44.7 g m/s²

An object that weighs 2.450 N is attached to an ideal massless spring and undergoes simple harmonic oscillations with a period o

Viktor [21]

Answer:

Spring constant, k = 24.1 N/m

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of the object, W = 2.45 N

Time period of oscillation of simple harmonic motion, T = 0.64 s

To find,

Spring constant of the spring.

Solution,

In case of simple harmonic motion, the time period of oscillation is given by :

$T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}$

m is the mass of object

$m=\dfrac{W}{g}$

$m=\dfrac{2.45}{9.8}$

m = 0.25 kg

$k=\dfrac{4\pi^2m}{T^2}$

$k=\dfrac{4\pi^2\times 0.25}{(0.64)^2}$

k = 24.09 N/m

or

k = 24.11 N/m

So, the spring constant of the spring is 24.1 N/m.

The minute hand of a wall clock measures 16 cm from its tip to the axis about which it rotates. The magnitude and angle of the d

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Minute hand length =16 cm

Time at a quarter after the hour to half past i.e. 1 hr 45 min

Angle covered by minute hand in 1 hr is 360 and in 45 minutes 270

$|r|=\frac{3\times 2\pi r}{4}=75.408 cm$

$Angle =270^{\circ}$

(c)For the next half hour

Effectively it has covered 2 revolution and a quarter

$|r|=\frac{2\pi r}{4}=25.136 cm$

angle turned $=90^{\circ}$

(f)Hour after that

After an hour it again comes back to its original position thus displacement is same =25.136

Angle turned will also be same i.e. $90 ^{\circ}$

A piece of copper of mass 100 g is being drilled through with a 1/2" electric drill. The drill operates at 40.0 W and takes 30.0

lesantik [10]

Answer:

correct option is c. 31.0°C

Explanation:

given data

copper of mass = 100 g

electric drill = 1/2"

power = 40.0 W

time = 30 s

C copper = 387 J/kgC

to find out

copper's increase in temperature

solution

we get here energy that is express a s

energy = 40 W × 30 s

energy = 1200 Watt seconds

and heat acquired by drill is here as

heat acquired = 100 × T × 387

here temperature rise in copper mass as

temperature rise in copper mass = $\frac{100}{1000}$ × T × 387

temperature rise in copper mass = 38.7 × T Watt second

we know that all the energy from the drill heats the copper

so we can say

38.7 × T = 1200

T = 31°C

so correct option is c. 31.0°C
