Mary and her younger brother Alex decide to ride the 17 -foot-diameter carousel at the State Fair. Mary sits on one of the horse

s in the outer section at a distance of 8 feet from the center. Alex decides to play it safe and chooses to sit in the inner section at a distance of 5 feet from the center.
(a) What is Mary's angular speed ωM compared to that of Alex's angular speed ωA ? Give your answer as a multiple of ωA.ωM=ωA
(b) What is Mary's tangential speed vM compared to that of Alex's tangential speed vA? Give your answer as a multiple of vA.vM=vA

Answer:

(a) ωM=ωA

(b) vA = (0.625)vM

Explanation:

The tangential velocity of the body is calculated by the following formula:

v = ω*R Formula (1)

where:

v is the tangential speed of the body in feet over second (ft/s)

ω is the angular speed in radians over second (rad/s)

R is the radius of the the body in the circular path in meters (m)

(a) What is Mary's angular speed ωM compared to that of Alex's angular speed ωA

The angular speed of Mary and Alex is determined by the angular speed of the carousel ( ωC),therefore it is the same for both:

ωM=ωC , ωA=ωC

ωM=ωA

(b) What is Mary's tangential speed vM compared to that of Alex's tangential speed vA?

Data:

RM = 8 ft : Mary radio

RA = 5 ft : Alex radio

We apply the formula (1)

v = ω*R

vM = ωC *8 : Mary's tangential speed

vA = ωC *5 : Alex's tangential speed

We establish the relationship between vA and vM like this:

vA/vM = (ωC*5) / (ωC*8)

We cancel ωC

vA = (5/8)vM

vA = (0.625)vM

A 3.15-kg object is moving in a plane, with its x and y coordinates given by x = 6t2 − 4 and y = 5t3 + 6, where x and y are in m

Answer:

<h2>206.67N</h2>

Explanation:

The sum of force along both components x and y is expressed as;

$\sum Fx = ma_x \ and \ \sum Fy = ma_y$

The magnitude of the net force which is also known as the resultant will be expressed as $R =\sqrt{(\sum Fx)^2 + (\sum Fx )^2}$

To get the resultant, we need to get the sum of the forces along each components. But first lets get the acceleration along the components first.

Given the position of the object along the x-component to be x = 6t² − 4;

$a_x = \frac{d^2 x }{dt^2}$

$a_x = \frac{d}{dt}(\frac{dx}{dt} )\\ \\a_x = \frac{d}{dt}(6t^{2}-4 )\\\\a_x = \frac{d}{dt}(12t )\\\\a_x = 12m/s^{2}$

Similarly,

$a_y = \frac{d}{dt}(\frac{dy}{dt} )\\ \\a_y = \frac{d}{dt}(5t^{3} +6 )\\\\a_y = \frac{d}{dt}(15t^{2} )\\\\a_y = 30t\\a_y \ at \ t= 2.15s; a_y = 30(2.15)\\a_y = 64.5m/s^2$

$\sum F_x = 3.15 * 12 = 37.8N\\\sum F_y = 3.15 * 64.5 = 203.18N$

$R = \sqrt{37.8^2+203.18^2}\\ \\R = \sqrt{1428.84+41,282.11}\\ \\R = \sqrt{42.710.95}\\ \\R = 206.67N$

Hence, the magnitude of the net force acting on this object at t = 2.15 s is approximately 206.67N

An astronaut is in space with a baseball and a bowling ball. The astronaut pushes both objects in the same direction. If both ba

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

As a mass greater than that of baseball, at the moment of the bowling wave the moment of the baseball ball is also greater

Explanation:

This problem is an application of momentum and momentum. When the astronaut pushed balls, he needed more force to move the ball of greater mass (bowling). The expression for soul is

p = m v

Besibol Blade

p1 = m1 v

Bowling ball

p2 = m2 v

As a mass greater than that of baseball, at the moment of the bowling wave the moment of the baseball ball is also greater

p2 >> p1

A ball is thrown into the air with a vertical velocity of 50 m/s and a horizontal

daser333 [38]

$\mathfrak{\huge{\pink{\underline{\underline{AnSwEr:-}}}}}$

Actually Welcome to the Concept of the Projectile Motion.

Since, here given that, vertical velocity= 50m/s

we know that u*sin(theta) = vertical velocity

so the time taken to reach the maximum height or the time of Ascent is equal to

T = Usin(theta) ÷ g, here g = 9.8 m/s^2

so we get as,

T = 50/9.8

T = 5.10 seconds

thus the time taken to reach max height is 5.10 seconds.
