Answer:

About 2.19 seconds

Explanation:

$d=v_ot+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2$

Since the ball is dropped from rest, there is no initial velocity, and you can write the following equation:

$23.5=\dfrac{1}{2}(9.8)t^2 \\\\t^2\approx 4.79 \\\\t\approx 2.19s$

Hope this helps!

It will attain a speed of 20m/s before touching the ground, but the time taken to reach the ground is 2 seconds. Because the velocity is not uniform but acceleration/gravity is. Therefore, the answer to your question is: 2 seconds.

A string is wrapped around a uniform disk of mass M = 1.2 kg and radius R = 0.07 m. (Recall that the moment of inertia of a unif

pentagon [3]

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of disk = 1.2 kg

Radius = 0.07 m

Radius of rod = 0.11 m

Mass of small disk = 0.5 kg

Force = 29 N

Time t = 0.022 s

$\theta=0.023\ m$

Distance d= 0.039 m

(I). We need to calculate the speed of the apparatus

Using work energy theorem

$W=\Delta K.E$

$Fd=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2Fd}{M+4m}}$

Where, m = total mass

v = velocity

F = force

d = distance

Put the value into the formula

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times29\times0.039}{1.2+4\times0.5}}$

$v=0.840\ m/s$

(b). We need to calculate the angular speed of the apparatus

Using formula of torque

$\tau=I\alpha$

$F\times=(\dfrac{1}{2}MR^2+4mb^2)\alpha$

$29\times0.07=(\dfrac{1}{2}\times1.2\times0.07^2+4\times0.5\times0.11^2)\alpha$

$\alpha=\dfrac{29\times0.07}{0.02714}$

$\alpha=74.79\ rad/s^2$

We need to calculate the angular speed of the apparatus

Using equation of angular motion

$\omega=\omega_{0}+\alpha t$

Put the value into the formula

$\omega=0+74.79\times0.022$

$\omega=1.645\ rad/s$

(c). We need to calculate the angular speed of the apparatus

Using equation of angular motion

$\omega_{0}^2=\omega^2+2\alpha t$

Put the value into the formula

$\omega_{0}^2=1.645^2+2\times74.79\times0.022$

$\omega=2.44\ rad/s$

Hence, This is required equation.

the wheel of a car has a radius of .350 m. the engine of the car applies applies a torque of 295 N m to this wheel, which does n

maria [59]

The magnitude of static friction force is f_s = 842.8 N

Explanation:

Write down the values given in the question

The wheel of a car has radius r = 0.350 m

The car applies the torque is τ = 295 N m

It is said that the wheels does not slip against the road surface,

Here we apply a force of static friction,

It can be calculated as

Frictional force f_s = τ / r

= 295 Nm / 0.350 m

f_s = 842.8 N

A certain resistance thermometer read 14.5 ohms in pure melting ice and 18.5 ohms in steam at standard atmospheric pressure what

Vadim26 [7]

The resistance of the thermometer at room temperature is 15.04 ohms.

<h3 />

<h3>What is a resistance thermometer?</h3>

A resistance thermometer is a type of thermometer that measures temperature through a change in resistance.

To calculate the resistance of the thermometer at room temperature, we use the formula below.

Formula:

100/27 = 2/(x-14.5)..............Eqquation 1

Where:

x = Resistance of the thermometer at room temperature

Make x the subject of the equation

x = [(27×2)/100]+14.5
x = (54/100)+14.5
x = 0.54+14.5
x = 15.04 ohms.

Hence, The resistance of the thermometer at room temperature is 15.04 ohms.
