Washington Monument=555 ft 1 meter=3.28 feet 555/3.28 = height in meters 169.21 meters tall B. A worker assigned to the restoration of the Washington Monument is checking the condition of the stone at the very top of the monument. A nickel with a mass of 0.005 kg is in her shirt pocket

Since you didn't provide how tall the Monument was, I took the liberty to find it and it is 555 feet tall. So to convert to meters we must divide 555 by 3.28 or multiply it by 0.3048 (this is the method I used).
555 x 0.3048 = 169.164 meters

a toy propeller fan with a moment of inertia of .034 kg x m^2 has a net torque of .11Nxm applied to it. what angular acceleratio

Harman [31]

Answer:

The angular acceleration is $\alpha = 3.235 \ rad/s ^2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The moment of inertia is $I = 0.034\ kg \cdot m^2$

The net torque is $\tau = 0.11\ N \cdot m$

Generally the net torque is mathematically represented as

$\tau = I * \alpha$

Where $\alpha$ is the angular acceleration so

$\alpha = \frac{\tau }{I}$

substituting values

$\alpha = \frac{0.1 1}{ 0.034}$

$\alpha = 3.235 \ rad/s ^2$

The first car has twice the mass of a second car, but only half as much kinetic energy. When both cars increase their speed by 9

kirill [66]

Answer:

Speed of the car 1 = $V_1=8.98m/s$

Speed of the car 2 = $V_2=17.96m/s$

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the car 1 , M₁ = Twice the mass of car 2(M₂)

mathematically,

M₁ = 2M₂

Kinetic Energy of the car 1 = Half the kinetic energy of the car 2

KE₁ = 0.5 KE₂

Now, the kinetic energy for a body is given as

$KE =\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where,

m = mass of the body

v = velocity of the body

thus,

$\frac{1}{2}M_1V_1^2=0.5\times \frac{1}{2}M_2V_2^2$

$\frac{1}{2}2M_2V_1^2=0.5\times \frac{1}{2}M_2V_2^2$

$2M_2V_1^2=0.5\times M_2V_2^2$

$2V_1^2=0.5\times V_2^2$

$4V_1^2= V_2^2$

$2V_1= V_2$ .................(1)

also,

$\frac{1}{2}M_1(V_1+9.0)^2=\frac{1}{2}M_2(V_2+9.0)^2$

$\frac{1}{2}2M_2(V_1+9.0)^2=\frac{1}{2}M_2(2V_1+9.0)^2$

$2(V_1+9.0)^2=(2V_1+9.0)^2$

$\sqrt{2}(V_1+9.0)=(2V_1+9.0)$

$(\sqrt{2}V_1+ \sqrt{2}\times 9.0)=(2V_1+9.0)$

$(\sqrt{2}V_1+ 12.72)=(2V_1+9.0)$

$(2V_1-\sqrt{2}V_1)=(12.72-9.0)$

$(0.404V_1)=(3.72)$

$V_1=8.98m/s$

and, from equation (1)

$V_2=2\times 8.98m/s = 17.96m/s$

Hence,

Speed of car 1 = $V_1=8.98m/s$

Speed of car 2 = $V_2=17.96m/s$

Five wheels are connected as shown in the figure. Find the velocity of the block “Q”, if it is known that: RA= 5 [m], RB= 10 [m]

Tanzania [10]

Answer:

-5 m/s

Explanation:

The linear velocity of B is equal and opposite the linear velocity of E.

vB = -vE

vB = -ωE rE

10 m/s = -ωE (12 m)

ωE = -0.833 rad/s

The angular velocity of E is the same as the angular velocity of D.

ωE = ωD

ωD = -0.833 rad/s

The linear velocity of Q is the same as the linear velocity of D.

vQ = vD

vQ = ωD rD

vQ = (-0.833 rad/s) (6 m)

vQ = -5 m/s
