In the lab downstairs physics majors use a rotating mirror to measure the speed of light within a few percent of the actual valu

e they switch the mirror from rotating clockwise at 115 rad/s to counter clockwise at 115 rad/s over the course of 85 seconds. Assume constant angular acceleration.

The number of complete cycles the rotating mirror goes through before the angular velocity gets to zero is approximately 1166.8 revs

<h3>What is angular velocity?</h3>

Angular velocity is the ratio of the angle turned to the time taken.

The kinematic equation for angular velocity are presented as follows;

ω = ω₀ + α·t

θ = θ₀ + ω₀·t + 0.5·α·t²

Where;

θ₀ = The initial angle turned = 0

ω₀ = The initial angular velocity of the mirrors = 115 rad/s clockwise

α = The angular acceleration = (115  - (-115))rad/s/(85 s) = -46/17 m/s²

t = The duration of the motion;

When the angular velocity, ω is zero, we get;

0 = 115 - 46/17·t

t = 85/2

Which indicates;

θ = 0 + 115× (85/2) + 0.5×(46/17) ×(85/2)² = 7331.25

θ = 7331.25 radians

θ = 7331.25/(2×π) ≈ 1166.8 rev

The mirrors would have turned through approximately 1166.8 revolutions when the angular gets to zero

4. What quantity of heat is required to raise the temperature of 100
kupik [55]

Answer:

Q = 836.4 Joules.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 100 grams

Initial temperature = 25°C

Final temperature = 45°C

We know that the specific heat capacity of water is equal to 4.182 J/g°C.

To find the quantity of heat;

Heat capacity is given by the formula;

Q = mcdt

Where;

Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.

m represents the mass of an object.

c represents the specific heat capacity of water.

dt represents the change in temperature.

dt = T2 - T1

dt = 45 - 25

dt = 20°C

Substituting the values into the equation, we have;

Q = 100*4.182*20

Q = 836.4 Joules.

balu736 [363]

Answer:

<em>Correct choice: b 4H</em>

Explanation:

<u>Conservation of the mechanical energy</u>

The mechanical energy is the sum of the gravitational potential energy GPE (U) and the kinetic energy KE (K):

E = U + K

The GPE is calculated as:

U = mgh

And the kinetic energy is:

\displaystyle K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

Where:

m = mass of the object

g = gravitational acceleration

h = height of the object

v = speed at which the object moves

When the snowball is dropped from a height H, it has zero speed and therefore zero kinetic energy, thus the mechanical energy is:

U_1 = mgH

When the snowball reaches the ground, the height is zero and the GPE is also zero, thus the mechanical energy is:

\displaystyle U_2=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

Since the energy is conserved, U1=U2

\displaystyle mgH=\frac{1}{2}mv^2    \qquad\qquad [1]

For the speed to be double, we need to drop the snowball from a height H', and:

\displaystyle mgH'=\frac{1}{2}m(2v)^2

Operating:

\displaystyle mgH'=4\frac{1}{2}m(v)^2 \qquad\qquad [2]

Dividing [2] by [1]

\displaystyle \frac{mgH'}{mgH}=\frac{4\frac{1}{2}m(v)^2}{\frac{1}{2}m(v)^2}

Simplifying:

\displaystyle \frac{H'}{H}=4

Thus:

H' = 4H

Correct choice: b 4H

jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

Same reading.

Explanation:

Assume that after the string breaks the ball falls through the liquid with constant speed. If the mass of the bucket and the liquid is 1.20 kg, and the mass of the ball is 0.150 kg,

A.) Before the string break, the total weight = weight of the can + weight of the water.

According to Archimedes' Principle which state that: “A body immersed in a liquid loses weight by an amount equal to the weight of the liquid displaced.” Archimedes principle also states that: “When a body is immersed in a liquid, an upward thrust, equal to the weight of the liquid displaced, acts on it

B.) After the string break.

The scale will have the same reading as before the string break.
