A 5.0-g marble is released from rest in the deep end of a swimming pool. An underwater video reveals that its terminal speed in

the water is 0.30 m/s. (a) What is the acceleration of the marble at the instant it is released? (b) What is the acceleration of the marble when it has reached its terminal speed? (c) How long does it take the marble to reach half its terminal speed?

Answer:

a) a = -g = 9.8 m/s² , b) a = 0 m/s² and c)   t1 = 0.0213 s

Explanation:

a) At the moment the marble is released its velocity is zero, so it has no resistance force, the only force acting is its weight, so the acceleration is the acceleration of gravity

       a = -g = 9.8 m / s²

b) When the marble goes its terminal velocity all forces have been equalized, therefore, the sum of them is zero and consequently if acceleration is also zero

      a = 0 m / s²

c) We have to assume a specific type of resistive force, for liquid in general the resistive force is proportional to the speed of the body.

The expression of this situation is

         v = mg / b (1 -e^{-bt/m} )

For a very long time the exponential is zero, so the terminal velocity is

        v_{T} = mg / b

        b = mg /  v_{T}

        b = 5 10-3 9.8 / 0.3

        b = 0.163

We already have all the data to calculate the time for v = ½ v_{T}

        ½ v_{T} = v_{T} (1 -e^{-bt/m})

        ½ = 1- e (- 0.163 t1 / 5 10-3)

        e (-32.6 t1) = 1-0.5              (by  ln())

       -32.6 t1 = ln 0.5

       t1 = -1 / 32.6 (-0.693)

       t1 = 0.0213 s

A disk is spinning about its center with a constant angular speed at first. Let the turntable spin faster and faster, with const
hoa [83]

Answer:

4 (please see the attached file)

Explanation:

While the angular speed (counterclockwise) remained constant, the angular acceleration was just zero.

So, the only force acting on the bug (parallel to the surface) was the centripetal force, producing a centripetal acceleration directed towards the center of the disk.

When the turntable started to spin faster and faster, this caused a change in the angular speed, represented by the appearance of an angular acceleration α.

This acceleration is related with the tangential acceleration, by this expression:

at = α*r

This acceleration, tangent to the disk (aiming in the same direction of the movement, which is counterclockwise, as showed in the pictures) adds vectorially with the centripetal force, giving a resultant like the one showed in the sketch Nº 4.

When light energy hits the retina, the retinal changes from a _____ to a _____ configuration.
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

Cis, Trans.

Explanation:

Rhodopsin also known as visual purple, pigment which contains sensory protein that helps to convert light into an electrical signal. Rhodopsin present in wide range of organisms from bacteria to vertebrates.

Rhodopsin is composed of opsin, and 11-cis-retinaldehyde which is derived from vitamin A. When the eye contact with light the 11-cis component converted to all trans-retinal, which results in the changes in configuration fundamental in the rhodopsin molecule.

An object has a position given by r = [2.0 m + (2.00 m/s)t] i + [3.0 m − (1.00 m/s^2)t^2] j, where quantities are in SI units. W
lidiya [134]

Answer: 1 m/s

Explanation:

We have an object whose position r is given by a vector, where the components X and Y are identified by the unit vectors i and j (where each unit vector is defined to have a magnitude of exactly one):

r=[2 m + (2 m/s) t] i + [3 m - (1 m/s^{2})t^{2}] j

On the other hand, velocity is defined as the variation of the position in time:

V=\frac{dr}{dt}

This means we have to derive r:

\frac{dr}{dt}=\frac{d}{dt}[2 m + (2 m/s) t] i + \frac{d}{dt}[3 m - (1 m/s^{2})t^{2}] j

\frac{dr}{dt}=(2 m/s) i - (\frac{1}{2} m/s^{2} t) j This is the velocity vector

And when t=2s the velocity vector is:

\frac{dr}{dt}=(2 m/s) i - (\frac{1}{2} m/s^{2} (2 s)) j

\frac{dr}{dt}=2 m/s i - 1m/s j This is the velocity vector at 2 seconds

However, the solution is not complete yet, we have to find the module of this velocity vector, which is the speed S:

S=\sqrt {-1 m/s j + 2 m/s i}

S=\sqrt {1 m/s}

Finally:

S=1 m/s This is the speed of the object at 2 seconds

Sketch a position-time graph for a bear starting
Dmitrij [34]

Explanation:

hopefully that makes sense. the position doesn't change over the 5 seconds, meaning it's stopped but time still continues. then when the slope is negative this shows the bear's position becoming negative (backing up, changing direction).

The angular width of localizers varies between ______ and ______ degrees in order to provide a signal width of approximately 700
natali 33 [55]

Answer: 10 and 35 degrees

Explanation: Localizers width below 10 degree and 35 degree signal arc is unreliable and considered unusable for navigation and as a result, aircrafts may loose alignment
