Answer:

The speed of the top of the wheel is twice the speed of the car.

That is: 72  m/s

Explanation:

To find the speed of the top of the wheel, we need to combine to velocities: the tangential velocity of the rotating wheel due to rotational motion (v_t=\omega\,R=\omega\,(0.25\,m)\,) - with \omega being the wheel's angular velocity,

plus the velocity due to the translation of the center of mass (v = 36 m/s).

The wheel's angular velocity (in radians per second) can be obtained using the tangential velocity for the pure rotational motion and it equals:\omega=\frac{v_t}{r} =\frac{36}{0.25} \,s^{-1}

Then the addition of these two velocities equals:

\omega\,R+v=\frac{36}{0.25} (0.25)\,\,\frac{m}{s} +36\,\,\frac{m}{s} =72\,\,\frac{m}{s}

If you are pushing on a box with a force of 20 N and there is a 7 N force on the box due to sliding friction, what is the net fo
vovangra [49]

Answer:

13 N

Explanation:

The Net Force of an object should be the difference between the forces applied to the object if the object is not in equilibrium. This object is not in equilibrium so therefore by finding the difference between the forces, you will find your answer. 20 N - 7 N = 13 N.

Use Newton's laws to explain why a falling object dropped from a 57m tower accelerates initially but then reaches constant veloc
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

At the point of dropping the object, by Newton's first law due to gravitational force F_g = m × g, accelerates

By Newton's Second law the object reaches impacts on the air with the gravitational force resulting in changing momentum of m×(Final Velocity - Initial Velocity)

As the velocity increases, the rate of change of momentum becomes equivalent to the gravitational force and by Newton's third law, the action action and reaction are equal and opposite hence they cancel each other out

The body then moves at a constant uniform motion down according to Newton's first law

Explanation:

At the point the object of mass, m, is dropped from the height of the tower, the only force acting on the object is the gravitational force such that the object has an acceleration which is the acceleration due to gravity, g, and the gravitational force is therefore = m × g

As the speed of the object increases while the object is falling with the gravitational acceleration the rate at which the object cuts through layers of air which (by Newton's first law of motion, are at rest ) has some buoyancy effect also increases therefore, the object is constantly increasingly changing the momentum of the air which by Newton's second law results, at an high enough velocity, and by Newton's third law, in a force equal to the applied gravitational force

Therefore, the force of the air drag becomes equal to the gravitational force, cancelling each other out and the object then moves according to Newton;s first law, in uniform motion of a constant speed while still falling down.

wolverine [178]
<h2>Answer: protons and neutrons. </h2>

The atomic nuclei of almost all elements consist of protons and neutrons.

The nucleus of an atom has very small dimensions. However, it <u>occupies its central part and concentrates more than 99% of its total mass. </u>

It is in the nucleus that the protons (positive charge) and neutrons (neutral charge) are found.
