If only that were true, you would see tidal power stations
all up and down every coast by now.
Answer:5.13333333...
Explanation: 7.7 is the distance and an hour and a half is the average speed. You would have to divide the total distance by the total time. So it would be 7.7 divided by 1.5 which would equal 5.13333333333...
Answer:
Linear and rotational Kinetic Energy + Gravitational potential energy
Explanation:
The ball rolls off a tall roof and starts falling.
Let us first consider the potential energy or more specifically gravitational potential energy (
;
= mass of the ball,
= acceleration due to gravity,
= height of the roof). This energy comes because someone or something had to do work to take the ball to the top of the roof against the force of gravity. The potential energy is naturally maximum at the top and minimum when the ball finally reaches the ground.
Now, the ball starts to roll and falls off the roof. It shall continue rotating because of inertia (Newton's first law). This contributes to the rotational kinetic energy (
;
=moment of inertia of the ball &
= angular velocity).
Finally comes the linear kinetic energy or simply, kinetic energy (
) which is caused due to the velocity
of the ball.
Answer:

Explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Length 
Mass 
Distance from Tip 
Generally, the equation for Torque Balance is mathematically given by


Therefore

Explanation:
Draw a free body diagram for each disc.
Disc A has three forces acting on it: 86.5 N up, T₁ down, and Wa down.
∑F = ma
86.5 N − T₁ − Wa = 0
Wa = 86.5 N − T₁
ma × 9.8 m/s² = 86.5 N − 55.6 N
ma = 3.2 kg
Disc B has three forces acting on it: T₁ up, T₂ down, and Wb down.
∑F = ma
T₁ − T₂ − Wb = 0
Wb = T₁ − T₂
mb × 9.8 m/s² = 55.6 N − 36.5 N
mb = 1.9 kg
Disc C has three forces acting on it: T₂ up, T₃ down, and Wc down.
∑F = ma
T₂ − T₃ − Wc = 0
Wc = T₂ − T₃
mc × 9.8 m/s² = 36.5 N − 9.6 N
mc = 2.7 kg
Disc D has two forces acting on it: T₃ up and Wd down.
∑F = ma
T₃ − Wd = 0
Wd = T₃
md × 9.8 m/s² = 9.6 N
md = 0.98 kg
