Answer:

Fc = 7.14N

Explanation:

First of all, let's convert everything to the same unit system:

m = 0.0031kg     R = 13.1cm * 1m / 100cm = 0.131m      

ω = 50000 rev/min * 1rev /( 2π rad ) * 1min / 60s = 132.63 rad/s

Now we can calculate centripetal force as:

Fc = m * \frac{V^2}{R} = m * \frac{(\omega*R)^2}{R}=m*R*\omega ^2

Replacing the values we get the answer:

Fc = 7.14N

A runner runs 4875 ft in 6.85 minutes. what is the runners average speed in miles per hour?
yanalaym [24]

The average speed can be easily calculated by taking the ratio of distance and time. That is:

average speed = distance / time

 

so calculating:

average speed = 4875 ft / 6.85 minutes

<span>average speed = 711.68 ft / min</span>

A 0.050 kg bullet strikes a 5.0 kg wooden block with a velocity of 909 m/s and embeds itself in the block which fies off its sta
serg [7]

Answer:

The final velocity of the bullet is 9 m/s.

Explanation:

We have,

Mass of a bullet is, m = 0.05 kg

Mass of wooden block is, M = 5 kg

Initial speed of bullet, v = 909 m/s

The bullet embeds itself in the block which flies off its stand. Let V is the final velocity of the bullet. The this case, momentum of the system remains conserved. So,

mv=(m+M)V\\\\V=\dfrac{mv}{m+M}\\\\V=\dfrac{0.05\times 909}{0.050+5}\\\\V=9\ m/s

So, the final velocity of the bullet is 9 m/s.

Construction of a solar power plant is proposed for a desert area near a school. A student has hypothesized that the shade cast
hjlf

Answer:

4. The direct sunlight received by creosote bush in the desert area (in kWh/m2) during a 12 month period

Explanation:

The creosote bush depends on sunlight to produce the food they require through photosynthesis. The shade from the solar panels would reduce the amount of sunlight that the bush receives. This would increase the mortality of the bush.

In order to test the hypothesis the student must record the direct sunlight received by creosote bush in the desert area (in kWh/m2) during a 12 month period. If the plants receive sunlight less than the above amount the plants should start dying. If not then the hypothesis is false.

Hence, the answer is 4. The direct sunlight received by creosote bush in the desert area (in kWh/m2) during a 12 month period.
