Answer:

Mass of the vehicle and small bug.

Explanation:

  • By Newton's third law, force on bug and vehicle will be same when they collide with each other irrespective of their masses.
  • But according to Newton's second law, force is mass times acceleration. Since the force on each mass is same, the smaller mass will accelerate more and the heavier mass will accelerate less for the same force.
  • Therefore the acceleration of bug will be very greater than vehicle as the mass of the bug is very small as compared to vehicle.

Determine the angular speed, in rad/s of:
ryzh [129]

Answer:

Explanation:

A. The earth about its axis:

The earth makes one revolution in 24 hours. to know the number of revolutions per second it makes, we need to convert hours to seconds and the revolution to rad.

\frac{1 rev}{24hours}\times \frac{1 hr}{3600s}\times \frac{2\pi}{1}= 7.27 \times10^-5 rad/s

B. The minute hand of the clock makes one revolution in 60 minutes

To convert this to rad per second, we have

\frac{1 rev}{60mins}\times \frac{1 min}{60s}\times \frac{2\pi}{1}= 1.745 \times10^-3rad/s

C. The hour hand of  a clock completes one revolution in 12 hours

\frac{1 rev}{12hours}\times \frac{1 hr}{3600s}\times \frac{2\pi}{1}= 1.454 \times10^-4 rad/s

D. an egg beater turning at 300 rpm.

\frac{300 rev}{1minute}\times \frac{1 min}{60s}\times \frac{2\pi}{1}= 7.27 \times10^-5 rad/s=0.0218rad/s
