Answer: 71 J

Explanation: The formula for gravitational potential energy is Epg= mgh.

So you plug in 2.2 as m, 3.3 as h and 9.81 as g. Once you do that you should get an answer of 71.2206. But because there are only two significant digits in the question, your answer must also have two significant digits.

A 153 g mass is attached to the end of an unstressed vertical spring (of constant 24.7 N/m) and then dropped. The acceleration o
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

The answer to the question is

Its maximum speed is 1.54 m/s

Explanation:

Work done = Kinetic energy

0.5·m·v² = 0.5·k·x²

Where

m = mass

v = velocity

k =  spring constant

x = extension of the spring

We note that Force F is given by

F = m·a

Where

a = acceleration due to gravity

= 0.153×9.8 = 1.4994 N

Equating the work done by the force to the work done on the spring gives

Work done = Force × Distance = 1.4994×x = 0.5×k÷x² = 0.5×24.7×x²

x = 1.4994÷12.35 = 0.121 m

Substituting the value of x into the equation below gives

0.5·m·v² = 0.5·k·x²

0.5×0.153×v² = 12.35×0.121²

v² = 0.182÷0.0765 = 2.379

v = 1.54 m/s

A dentist’s drill starts from rest. After 3.20 s of constant angu-lar acceleration, it turns at a rate of 2.51 3 104 re v/m i n.
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

ΔTita = 4205.6 rad

Explanation:

w_{i} means initial angular velocity, which is 0 rev/min

w_{f} means final angular velocity, which is 2.513*10^{4}rev/min

t means time t= 3.20 s

one revolution is equivalent to 2πrad so the final angular velocity is:

w_{f} = (2π/60) *2.513*10^{4} rad/s

w_{f}= 2628.5 rad/s

so the angular acceleration, α will be:

α = 2628.5 rad/s / 3.20 s

a = 821.40 rad/s^{2}

so the rotational motion about a fixed axis is:

w^{2} _{f} =w^{2} _{i} + 2αΔTita    where ΔTita is the angle in radians

so now find the ΔTita the subject of the formula

ΔTita = \frac{w^{2} _{f}-w^{2} _{i}  }{2a}

ΔTita = ((2628.5)^{2} - (0 rev/min)^{2}) / 2* 821.40

ΔTita = 4205.6 rad

For a 99 kg person standing at the equator, what is the magnitude of the angular momentum about Earth's center due to Earth's ro
Fofino [41]

Answer:

L = 4.58 x 10⁴ kg.m²/s

Explanation:

The angular momentum is given by the formula:

L = mvr

but, v = rω

Therefore,

L = mr²ω

where,

L = Angular Momentum of the person = ?

m = mass of person = 99 kg

r = radius of earth = 6.37 x 10⁶ m

ω = Angular Speed of Earth's Rotation = θ/t

Since, earth completes 1 rotation in 1 day. Hence,

ω = (2π rad/1 day)(1 day/24 h)(1 h/3600 s)

ω =  7.27 x 10⁻⁵ rad/s

Therefore,

L = (99 kg)(6.37 x 10⁶ m)²(7.27 x 10⁻⁵ rad/s)

<u>L = 4.58 x 10⁴ kg.m²/s</u>
