A wall clock has a minute hand with a length of 0.53 m and an hour hand with a length of 0.26 m. Take the center of the clock as

the origin, and use a Cartesian coordinate system with the positive x axis pointing to 3 o'clock and the positive y axis pointing to 12 o'clock. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the tip of the minute hand of the clock?

Answer:

a  =1.61 × 10⁻⁶ m/s²

Explanation:

given,

length of minute hand = 0.53 m

length of hour hand = 0.26 m

the time taken by the minute hand to complete one revolution is T=3600 s

the angular frequency is

                        \omega =\dfrac{2\pi }{T}

                         \omega =\dfrac{2\pi }{3600}

                         \omega=0.001745 rad/sec

the acceleration is  

                                a = r \omega^2

                                a = (0.53) \times (0.001745)^2

                                       a  =1.61 × 10⁻⁶ m/s²

1) describe the life cycle of a star before it collapses into a black hole.

1) describe the life cycle of a star before it collapses into a black hole.ans: A star's life cycle is determined by its mass. The larger its mass, the shorter its life cycle. A star's mass is determined by the amount of matter that is available in its nebula, the giant cloud of gas and dust from which it was born. Over time, the hydrogen gas in the nebula is pulled together by gravity and it begins to spin. As the gas spins faster, it heats up and becomes as a protostar. Eventually the temperature reaches 15,000,000 degrees and nuclear fusion occurs in the cloud's core. The cloud begins to glow brightly, contracts a little, and becomes stable. It is now a main sequence star and will remain in this stage, shining for millions to billions of years to come. This is the stage our Sun is at right now.

2) describe the life cycle of a star before it becomes a dwarf.

ans: The life cycle of a low mass star (left oval) and a high mass star (right oval). ... As the core collapses, the outer layers of the star are expelled. A planetary nebula is formed by the outer layers. The core remains as a white dwarf and eventually cools to become a black dwarf.

3) what is the likely outcome of our sun?

ans: All stars die, and eventually — in about 5 billion years — our sun will, too. Once its supply of hydrogen is exhausted, the final, dramatic stages of its life will unfold, as our host star expands to become a red giant and then tears its body to pieces to condense into a white dwarf.

In the lab downstairs physics majors use a rotating mirror to measure the speed of light within a few percent of the actual valu
iris [78.8K]

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
