A rotating fan completes 1200 revolutions every minute. consider the tip of a blade, at a radius of 0.19 m. through what distanc
ser-zykov [4K]

The tip of the fan moves through the outer side of the circle.

So it moves a distance of perimeter of circle in one revolution.

Perimeter of circle = 2\pir, where r is the radius of circle.

In this case radius of circular motion = 0.19 meter

So perimeter of circle = 2\pi*0.19 = 0.38\pi = 1.194 m

So distance does the tip move in one revolution = 1.194 meter

If your weight is 120 pounds and your mass is 54 kilograms how would those values change if you were on the moon
BlackZzzverrR [31]
The gravitation acceleration on the moon is different than on Earth. It is 1.6 m/s^2. If you weigh 120 lbs, then you would multiply 120 pounds by the gravitational acceleration on the moon and then divide by the acceleration on Earth.

(120 lbs * 1.6) / 9.8 = 20 pounds.

The mass will always be the same no matter what planet you’re on, so it’s still 54 kg.

balu736 [363]

Answer:

The charges from the thunderstorm flow through the conductive metal

of which the vehicle is made and distribute themselves on the outside surface of the vehicle

Explanation:

It is actually safer to stay inside a car during a thunderstorm rather than standing outside the car. The reason is this, thunder passes electrical charges through a conductor. The body of the vehicle is made of a metal which is a good conductor of electricity. The charges will redistribute themselves on the body of the vehicle (a metallic conductor of electricity) hence the occupants of the car are relatively safe.

The reasons described above makes those inside the vehicle relatively safe compared to a person standing outside.
