A record turntable is rotating at 33 rev/min. A watermelon seed is on the turntable 4.0 cm from the axis of rotation. (a) Calcul
Annette [7]

Answer:

a) a = 0.477 m/s^2

b) u = 0.04862

Explanation:

Given:-

- The rotational speed of the turntable N = 33 rev/min

- The watermelon seed is r = 4.0 cm away from axis of rotation.

Find:-

(a) Calculate the acceleration of the seed, assuming that it does not slip. (b) What is the minimum value of the coefficient of static friction between the seed and the turntable if the seed is not to slip

Solution:-

- First determine the angular speed (w) of the turntable.

                   w = 2π*N / 60

                   w = 2π*33 / 60

                   w = 3.456 rad/s

- The watermelon seed undergoes a centripetal acceleration ( α ) defined by:

                   α = w^2 * r

                   α = 3.456^2 * 0.04

                   α = 0.477 m / s^2

- The minimum friction force (Ff) is proportional to the contact force of the seed.

- The weight (W) of the seed with mass m acts downwards. The contact force (N) can be determined from static condition of seed in vertical direction.

                   N - W = 0

                   N = W = m*g

- The friction force of the (Ff) is directed towards the center of axis of rotation, while the centripetal force acts in opposite direction. The frictional force Ff = u*N = u*m*g must be enough to match the centripetal force exerted by the turntable on the seed.

                    Ff = m*a

                    u*m*g = m*a

                    u = a / g

                    u = 0.477 / 9.81

                    u = 0.04862

What is an example of a mechanical noise?
faltersainse [42]
Resonance:
The resounding recurrence is the recurrence at which a bit of metal, plastic or whatever else swings/vibrates with minimal measure of vitality input. Think about a man on a play area swing. You realize that it requires next to no push to keep the individual swinging. The recurrence at which they swing forward and backward is their full recurrence. In the event that you endeavor to influence them to swing speedier or slower, it will take altogether more vitality.

Resonating Panels:
This kind of clamor is caused when the bass notes are an indistinguishable recurrence from the thunderous recurrence of a metal or plastic board. To stop or decrease the commotion related with this kind of issue, you can do two or three things.

Rattling:
This sort of commotion would be caused when 2 bits of metal, plastic, whatever... are sufficiently close to hammer into each other when they resound. This is most likely best illuminated by filling the hole between the two vibrating parts with silicone sealant or shut cell froth climate stripping. The climate stripping is a superior arrangement in places like behind the tag. On the off chance that you have a tag outline, you can get some truly thin climate stripping and put between the casing and the plate.

A model air rocket with a mass of 50.g is free to travel along a horizontal track. It begins from rest. After 2.0s, the rocket h
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

v_r=5.89\ m.s^{-1}

Explanation:

Given:

  • mass of rocket, m_r=50\ g
  • time of observation, t=2\ s
  • mass lost by the rocket by expulsion of air, m_a=10\%\ of m_r=5\ g
  • velocity of air, v_a=53\ m.s^{-1}

<u>Now the momentum of air will be equal to the momentum of rocket in the opposite direction: </u>(Using the theory of elastic collision)

m_a.v_a=(m_r-m_a)\times v_r

5\times 53=(50-5)\times v_r

v_r=5.89\ m.s^{-1}

Imagine that an electron in an excited state in a nitrogen molecule decays to its ground state, emitting a photon with a frequen
mash [69]
Since energy cannot be created nor destroyed, the change in energy of the electron must be equal to the energy of the emitted photon.

The energy of the emitted photon is given by:
E=hf
where
h is the Planck constant
f is the photon frequency
Substituting f=8.88 \cdot 10^{14}Hz, we find
E=hf=(6.6 \cdot 10^{-34} Js)(8.88 \cdot 10^{14} Hz)=5.86 \cdot 10^{-19} J

This is the energy given to the emitted photon; it means this is also equal to the energy lost by the electron in the transition, so the variation of energy of the electron will have a negative sign (because the electron is losing energy by decaying from an excited state, with higher energy, to the ground state, with lower energy)
\Delta E= -5.86 \cdot 10^{-19} J
