How about a carousel (merry go round).
For any one horse or rider, Speed is constant but direction keeps changing, so velocity does too.

diamong [38]

Answer:

 2n t = m λ₀ ,    R = 0.240 mm

Explanation:

The interference by regency in thin films uses two rays mainly the one reflected on the surface and the one reflected on the inside of the film.

The ray that is reflected in the upper part of the film has a phase change of 180º since the ray stops from a medium with a low refractive index to one with a higher regrading index,

-This phase change is the introduction of a λ/2 change

-The ray passing through the film has a change in wavelength due to the refractive index of the medium

          λ₀ = λ / n

Therefore Taking into account this fact the destructive interference expression introduces an integer phase change, then the extra distance 2t is

        2 t = (m’+ ½ + ½) λ₀ / n

        2t = (m’+1) λ₀ / n

         m = m’+ 1

        2n t = m λ₀

        With   m = 0, 1, 2, ...

Where t is the thickness of the film, n the refractive index of the medium, λ the wavelength

The thickness of a hair is the thickness of the film t

           2R = t

             R = t / 2

             R = 0480/2

              R = 0.240 mm

A uniform disk has a mass of 3.7 kg and a radius of 0.40 m. The disk is mounted on frictionless bearings and is used as a turnta
yuradex [85]

Answer:

1.25 kgm²/sec

Explanation:

Disk inertia, Jd =

Jd = 1/2 * 3.7 * 0.40² = 0.2960 kgm²

Disk angular speed =

ωd = 0.1047 * 30 = 3.1416 rad/sec

Hollow cylinder inertia =

Jc = 3.7 * 0.40² = 0.592 kgm²

Initial Kinetic Energy of the disk

Ekd = 1/2 * Jd * ωd²

Ekd = 0.148 * 9.87

Ekd = 1.4607 joule

Ekd = (Jc + 1/2*Jd) * ω²

Final angular speed =

ω² = Ekd/(Jc+1/2*Jd)

ω² = 1.4607/(0.592+0.148)

ω² = 1.4607/0.74

ω² = 1.974

ω = √1.974

ω = 1.405 rad/sec

Final angular momentum =

L = (Jd+Jc) * ω

L = 0.888 * 1.405

L = 1.25 kgm²/sec

Urban cities like Atlanta have to contend with a serious problem like pollution. Drivers in California are testing out a car tha
riadik2000 [5.3K]

1. With this statement, the author is referring to the fact that the vehicles are one of the largest polluters of the air. In order to reduce the pollution, the vehicles that are used will need to be changed, and with it the pollution will decrease significantly. The reduction of the pollution will come because the vehicles on hydrogen will not cause any pollution, so the enormous amounts of carbon dioxide released from the combustion of the engines will be thing of the past.

2. There are several challenges with this type of vehicles in order for them to replace the fossil fuel driven ones. The big price is one of the factors, as the majority of the people can not afford these cars. Another problem is that these vehicles are not as fast as the fossil fuel driven ones, and lot of people enjoy fast driving, despite it not being safe. There are millions of vehicles out there on the roads, and changing all of them with hydrogen vehicles will take a lot of time, as lot of those vehicles are new ones, so the people will not be willing to just throw them away and leave them rot in their garages. In order for the change of the driving park to be accomplished, the prices should go down, the people to be more serious about the environment and its protection, and patience as several decades will probably be needed for a change like this to be competed.

3. The fuel celled cars are a viable answer to decrease the pollution, as they are not causing any pollution, but instead will stop the process of large emissions of carbon dioxide from the fossil fueled cars. While this method is a good one, it should not be the only, as on its own it can not have the desirable effect, but instead all the major polluters should be included in the process. The industry and the production of energy are one of the major polluters as well, so they will need to follow the example, as if they not, the problem will stay, considering that the industry is constantly growing and the demand for energy is constantly growing too.

A skateboarder with mass ms = 54 kg is standing at the top of a ramp which is hy = 3.3 m above the ground. The skateboarder then
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

A) W_{ff} =-744.12J

B) F_f=-W_{ff}*sin\theta /hy = 112.75N

C) F_{f2}=207.58N

Explanation:

This question is incomplete. The full question was:

<em>A skateboarder with mass ms = 54 kg is standing at the top of a ramp which is hy = 3.3 m above the ground. The skateboarder then jumps on his skateboard and descends down the ramp. His speed at the bottom of the ramp is vf = 6.2 m/s.  </em>

<em>Part (a) Write an expression for the work, Wf, done by the friction force between the ramp and the skateboarder in terms of the variables given in the problem statement.  </em>

<em>Part (b) The ramp makes an angle θ with the ground, where θ = 30°. Write an expression for the magnitude of the friction force, fr, between the ramp and the skateboarder.  </em>

<em>Part (c) When the skateboarder reaches the bottom of the ramp, he continues moving with the speed vf onto a flat surface covered with grass. The friction between the grass and the skateboarder brings him to a complete stop after 5.00 m. Calculate the magnitude of the friction force, Fgrass in newtons, between the skateboarder and the grass.</em>

For part A), we make a balance of energy to calculate the work done by the friction force:

W_{ff}=\Delta E

W_{ff}=1/2*m*vf^2-m*g*hy

W_{ff}=-744.12J

For part B), we use our previous value for the work:

W_{ff}=-F_f*(hy/sin\theta)   Solving for friction force:

F_f=-W_{ff}*sin\theta /hy

F_f=112.75N

For part C), we first calculate the acceleration by kinematics and then calculate the module of friction force by dynamics:

Vf^2=Vo^2+2*a*d

Solving for a:

a=-3.844m/s^2

Now, by dynamics:

|F_f|=|m*a|

|F_f|=207.58N

what is the acceleration of a bowling ball that starts at rest and moves 300m down the gutter in 22.4 sec
exis [7]
<span>Acceleration is the change in velocity divided by time taken. It has both magnitude and direction. In this problem, the change in velocity would first have to be calculated. Velocity is distance divided by time. Therefore, the velocity here would be 300 m divided by 22.4 seconds. This gives a velocity of 13.3928 m/s. Since acceleration is velocity divided by time, it would be 13.3928 divided by 22.4, giving a final solution of 0.598 m/s^2.</span>
