A small child gives a plastic frog a big push at the bottom of a slippery 2.0 meter long, 1.0 meter high ramp, starting it with

a speed of 5.0 m/s. What is the frog's speed as it flies off the top of the ramp?

Refer to the diagram shown below.

Because the ramp is slippery, ignore dynamic friction.
Let m =  the mass of the frog.
g = 9.8 m/s²

The KE (kinetic energy) at the bottom of the ramp is
KE₁ = (1/2)*(m kg)*(5 m/s)² = 12.5 m J

Let v =  the velocity at the top of the ramp.
The KE at the top of the ramp is
KE₂ = (1/2)*m*v²= 0.5 mv² J
The PE (potential energy) at the top of the ramp relative to the bottom is
PE₂ = (m kg)*(9.8 m/s²)*(1 m) = 9.8m J

Conservation of energy requires that
KE₁ = KE₂ + PE₂
12.5m = 0.5mv² + 9.8m
0.5v² = 2.7
v = 2.324 m/s

Answer: 2.324 m/s

Determine the centripetal force upon a 40-kg child who makes 10 revolution around the cliffhanger in 29.3 seconds.the radius of
zysi [14]

Answer:

The centripetal force acting on the child is 39400.56 N.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the child is, m=40\ kg

Radius of the barrel is, R=2.90\ m

Number of revolutions are, n =10

Time taken for 10 revolutions is, t=29.3\ s

Therefore, the time period of the child is given as:

T=\frac{n}{t}=\frac{10}{29.3}=0.341\ s

Now, angular velocity is related to time period as:

\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}=\frac{2\pi}{0.341}=18.43\ rad/s

Now, centripetal force acting on the child is given as:

F_{c}=m\omega^2 R\\F_{c}=40\times (18.43)^2\times 2.90\\F_{c}=40\times 339.66\times 2.90\\F_{c}=39400.56\ N

Therefore, the centripetal force acting on the child is 39400.56 N.

During metamorphism, what is the major effect of chemically active fluids?
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Option b

Explanation:

Metamorphism is the process where the variation of the geological texture resulting from the different arrangement of the minerals or the variation of minerals in protoliths, i.e., pre- existing rocks take place such that there occurs no change in state of the protolith, i.e., it does not melt into magma.

The change takes place as a result of the presence of chemically active fluids, heat and pressure.

There is a reaction between the chemically active fluid and the rock through which it passes and promotes the movement of the dissolved ions of silicate and promotes the growth of the mineral grains.

In general it is best to conceptualize vectors as arrows in space, and then to make calculations with them using their component
Dimas [21]

(1) A - B

(2) B - C

(3) - A + B - C

(4) 3A - 2C

(5) - 2A + 3B - C

(6) 2A - 3 (B - C)

Answer:

(1)  (3,-5,-4)

(2) (-5, 4, 0)

(3) (-6, 4, 3)

(4) (-3, -2, -11)

(5) (-11, 14, 8)

(6) (17, -12, -6)

Explanation:

A⃗ =(1,0,−3)

B⃗ =(−2,5,1)

C⃗ =(3,1,1)

Vector additions and subtraction are done on a component by component basis, that is, only data from component î can be added to or subtracted from another Vector's component î. And so on for components j and k.

1) (A - B) = (1,0,−3) - (−2,5,1) = (1-(-2), 0-5, -3-1) = (3,-5,-4)

2)  (B - C) = (−2,5,1) - (3,1,1) = (-2-3, 5-1, 1-1) = (-5, 4, 0)

3) -A + B - C = -(1,0,−3) + (−2,5,1) - (3,1,1) = (-1-2-3, 0+5-1, 3+1-1) = (-6, 4, 3)

4) 3A - 2C = 3(1,0,−3) - 2(3,1,1) = (3,0,-9) - (6,2,2) = (3-6, 0-2, -9-2) = (-3, -2, -11)

5) -2A + 3B - C = -2(1,0,−3) + 3(−2,5,1) - (3,1,1) = (-2,0,6) + (-6,15,3) - (3,1,1) = (-2-6-3, 0+15-1, 6+3-1) = (-11, 14, 8)

6) 2A - 3 (B - C) = 2(1,0,−3) - 3[(−2,5,1) - (3,1,1)] = (2,0,-6) - 3(-5,4,0) = (2+15, 0-12, -6-0) = (17, -12, -6)

A Micro –Hydro turbine generator is accelerating uniformly from an angular velocity of 610 rpm to its operating angular velocity
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

Angular displacement of the turbine is 234.62 radian

Explanation:

initial angular speed of the turbine is

\omega_i = 2\pi f_1

\omega_1 = 2\pi(\frac{610}{60})

\omega_1 = 63.88 rad/s

similarly final angular speed is given as

\omega_f = 2\pi f_2

\omega_2 = 2\pi(\frac{837}{60})

\omega_2 = 87.65 rad/s

angular acceleration of the turbine is given as

\alpha = 5.9 rad/s^2

now we have to find the angular displacement is given as

\theta = \omega t + \frac{1}{2}\alpha t^2

\theta = (63.88)(3.2) + (\frac{1}{2})(5.9)(3.2^2)

\theta = 234.62 radian
