D=Vot+1/2at^2

In this case, there is no initial y velocity so the term Vot=0 so d=1/2at^2

acceleration=acceleration due to gravity=-9.8m/s^2

It falls - 22cm or -0.22m

We have - 0.22=1/2(-9.8)t^2

t^2=(-0.44)/(-9.8)

t=sqrt[0.44/9.8]

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

We first to know that if the wheel rotates from rest means that at t=0 the velocity and the angle rotated is 0.

Then, we know:

\alpha = 1.33 = \frac{dw}{dt}

Integrating 2 times, we have:

w = 1.33t\\angle =0.665t^{2}

For the first 27.9 s, we have:

w = 37.107 rad/s

angle = 517.6426 rad

For the next seconds, according to the text, the angular velocity is constant so

w = 37.107 rad/s and hence, integrating:

angle =37.107t

Then, the time remaining is:

53.5 - 27.9 = 25.6  

So for the next 25.6 seconds we have:

angle = 37.107*25.6=949.9392 rad

Finally, we add the 2 angles and we have as a result:

angle = 517.6426+949.9392=1467.5818

The bending of waves as they pass between media is called .?
Rufina [12.5K]

Refraction is the change in direction of waves that occurs when waves travel from one medium to another. Refraction is always accompanied by a wavelength and speed change. Diffraction is the bending of waves around obstacles and openings.
